Is this what the office of the presidency has been reduced to, a fight between tribalists and religious bigots? SMH! I weep for my Nation!

Gideonyte:
My brother you can forget these tribalists, many of them don't even know what their talking about! I can list hundreds of fields that I have worked on and >80% of them are on Ijaw land. Actually all of Shell's billion barrel fields (except offshore Bonga) are actually on Ijaw land. As for those who keep shouting about Lagos IGR, it would surprise you to note that Lagos has over 100 viable tax paying companies and a friend who works in Chevron once told me that Chevron alone pays over N800m in taxes every month to lagos statement govt! Just imagine what the total amount would be when you add what the other oil companies pay. This was the reason why there was so much anger when NLNG was asked to relocate.

You are right on point, Brother. If all the oil companies relocate away from Lagos to where they have their highest operations, lets see how these moffos will be screaming "Lagos State generates the highest revenue in Nigeria".

I think this our jaw brothers should stop the politics of ethnic ,president Jonathan is Nigeria president not a jaw so if he fair the law according to our land he will be punish for it.but right now the issue of church gift should not be a problem now cos our president need to focus we hv more problem right now

Abeg go chill jare

Maybe it is high time Ijaw people realise that GEJ is not for Ijaw but for Nigerians.

This term "our oil" "our son" etc it is really annoying and the blackmail has to end. For all I care the so called Oil companies can relocate, it does not matter or change anything, just stop this rubbish ok !!!!

Ijawland is not the only land that produce oil, yoruba and Igbo land does as well.

As for the Lagos talk, ignore the bigot although he has some points !!!

I hope to hear your reply !

amosy007:
do u have problem with reading? I said ruled by acn i didnt say yoruba... Am from edo and i prefer to associate with yoruba than any other tribe in nigeria,. Get that straight into ur hard skull

Thank you, let this iddeeiots know

jason123: Is this what the office of the presidency has been reduced to, a fight between tribalists and religious bigots? SMH! I weep for my Nation!

Even if you didn't read the opening post, you should have at least read the subject before posting na. LOL. It clearly states 'Konbowei Benson Friday, Bayelsa Speaker' and not the Presidency Mr.

[size=13pt]As for my Igbo brothers dancing with joy that ijaw and yoruba disagreement and also seeding the seed of hate among the two like they did with the north and yoruba, Know something that patient has it's limit.[/size]

Ijaw people have done the hardwork by voting and wooing others to vote for GEJ to be the president. Now it is time for them to relax and push GEJ to

1. Move the Oil company to Ijawland

2. Build schools, road etc in Ijawland

3. Push for the right revenue to go to the grassroot people in Ijawland

Because if you do not ask for these thing, Other regions would ask for their own cut. You cannot say because GEJ is Ijaw, he should not be castigated or pushed to do the right thing. I am sorry we are not in military rule but democratic and infact OBJ and Yaradua went through hell as well so stop this tribal politics being played here.

Oil comes from Ijawland, Yes and So !!! Why not push GEJ to change revenue allocation which he has done etc to favour una, stop blaming others for that. You also have to be calculative here, People (apart from Igbos and ijaws) are seeing GEJ more of a tribal president rather than a National president even among the South-south groups like Agbor, Ibibio etc (I spoke to an Agbor man yesterday about it)

Lets be real here, if you keep coming to the defence of GEJ rather than the people, GEJ would be losing more and more power !!!!

Wake up before it is too late. GEJ presidency is not only for GEJ but also a correct evaluation for future president from that region.

[size=14pt]To the Ijaw nation, bietebe keme ama miengha

I hope you understand what that means, you need others as well.[/size]

U see, that is d problem wen u bring dark people into the limelight. Now that GEJ is president we now here terms like IJAW NATION. So nigeria is now Ijaw nation that this peoople will be saying nonsense cos them get one. Of their ownn as president.

When OBJ was there did d yorubas call it Yoruba nation??
When Yar'adua (God rest his soul) did the hausas call it hausa nation?

Truly, unnder. GEJ who is a green horn wit no expperience we will surely hear amazing thinngs happening in Nigeria

In other nationns wwith stable govts somebody like GEJ will hardly get to be president, y? Cos he was voted on symmpppathy vote, on ethnic n religious lines. With no trace of service or past achievements in d political or administrative scene

No manifesto was scrutinized n to make matters worse he used slogans like "fresh air" to campaign a presidential election. Imagine!! N nigerians fell 4 it.

It's no wonder that nigeria is in a worrying state, as even his ministers n other members of his cabinet r foreign educated ideologists with no experience nor familiarity with the nigerian situation n as such they can't handle the issues on ground today.

I fear for nigeria b4 2015 cos Nigeria is a nation that must n should not be led by a "greenhorn"

God help us

Hahaha! Another classic attempt at trying to bring Igbo people in every issue. But I'm glad your con has totally played out.

Anyway, it's only a matter of years before you're all officially crippled by polio and leprosy, so I guess that's a good reason for me to rejoice

alj harem: Maybe it is high time Ijaw people realise that GEJ is not for Ijaw but for Nigerians.

My Brother! I sincerely agree with you, but, what you should know is that the Ijaws are not tribalists, nepotists or bigots, they are open-minded people that believe that human live should be improved upon every minute that passes and not to argue mundane things that bears us no good.

alj harem: This term "our oil" "our son" etc it is really annoying and the blackmail has to end.

Whenever, GEJ makes an error, they call him "the Drunken Fisherman" here on NL and nobody says anything. If you have read my previous posts, I have always insisted that no matter where he is from or who he may be, once elected and sworn-in, he is the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and everybody should respect him as such, but, many people here on NL who feels he is from a minority tribe thinks otherwise.

Let me give the Bigots some example of disgraced Nigerian president

1. OBJ was a Nigerian president and was beating by A YORUBA MAN in MMIA

2. OBJ was stoned with pure water in Anambra (should the "yoruba nation" have come out to shout hailstorm ?)

3. Yaradua was called yara slow, dumb etc before he died (should fulani come and say fulani nation ?)

4. IBB has gone through a lot even till this day from all corner of the nation

5. Abacha was actually murdered by IBB so as to free Nigerian and not Hausa nation or Yoruba nation

I can keep going on and on, you have to understand that the hardwork of making "your son" the president has already been done, Now is the time to leave him to the NATION so he can do his job

GEJ is not a child or a baby you would protect, GEJ just like other and future Nigerian president would got through a lot of hardship and insults till they leave the office and even after they leave they would still be blamed

That is the nature of ruling Nigeria.

My brother, I understand your anger but if they term GEJ as drunken fisherman, it does not change anything either is it regarded as an insult to Ijaw nation. It is politics and people insult others to score cheap points.

In Nigeria, a president go through a lot of trails but we should learn NOT TO INTERFERE our tribal politics with National issues.

Again, Yorubas are also free minded people (mie ebi) just like the Ijaws and Hausa. I must admit they insult a lot, but just like every group in Nigeria they also have their own error.

Lets enjoy our Nigeria and not fight because of some selfish individuals. Tamarakile Gej is the president,

jason123: Is this what the office of the presidency has been reduced to, a fight between tribalists and religious bigots? SMH! I weep for my Nation!

GEJ himself wants it like that. We all know how Reuben Abati is quick to open his mouth to defend any perceived criticism of Jonathan. Why was there no reaction from Abati when Dokubo-Asari said that the death sentence against AL-Mustafa is a Yoruba plot to rubbish GEJ? Was that not the perfect opportunity for GEJ to improve unity and cohesion by telling Dokubo-Asari off publicly and stating categorically that the President is behind every sentence passed by a competent Nigerian Court?

There are many examples like that where Jonathan's kinsmen, frankly, have insulted others who have rights , as Nigerians, to criticise the actions of their President or express dissatisfaction with his policies. Instead GEJ kept ominously silent when a peacemaking, uniting and truly Nigerian President would have being very active stepping up to the challenge of putting down divisive, incendiary and needlessly ethnocentric trouble-making.

May God help Nigeria with the choice they have made.

My man, im not a bigot nor a tribalist, I hate tribalism that's why i'm even commenting here. I just present the facts because iv worked on volumes assessment of most of these fields, so i present facts without revealing proprietary information.

The trouble is many of us dont have access to correct information, rely on heresays but come on Nairaland to pontificate about what they are really not sure of.

I'll repeat again. Of all the platinum and gold fields Shell has, over 80% are located in Ijaw land, from forcados to Nembe to Tunu, Kanbo etc.


As for Lagos IGR, doesnt it bother you that a State that has zero oil and gas production is always positioned to collect billions per year in taxes from oil companies? You may not have an idea on the volume of cash these companies bring in.

I just want Nigerians to mutually respect each other because to be honest what you see on Nairaland is actually what happens in these oil companies. There is unbridled tribalism!

alj harem:

It shows how bigoted you lot are, You added yourselves to it not me.

Nope - you did, because you're so bloody worthless and insecure, you have to bring Igbo people in everything. In fact, it's only a miracle you haven't even blamed Igbo people for the 10 million ambitionless almajiris in the North.
Or was that also of their making?
This is reality's highest authority over mother nature, telling you to shut the fvvck up.

We are all idiot.miss use of education.when did church building become a personal gift to lucky jo?-wrong,how do church building be claim corporate social resp-odd.in a secular nation haba? How can 1 claim ijaw oil is small in ss -wrong yet it oil n gas used in yoruba land .we are all rams

I understand your point and that is why I love Ijaw people. People air their views at times although it might seem painful but you just have to accept it.

El- rufia is being castigated here daily although I know El-rufia but they they castigate him, all I can do is watch. I don't go tribal or defensive about it.

a lot of politicans have helped my family and some are also from my ethnic group but I try my best not to defend them on Nairaland or even outside because I try to put myself in other people's shoes.

Infact my family member (a politican) has been insulted here on Nairaland. People branded him a thief etc even though I know he is not but what can I say ? All I can do is watch as people air their views

What I am trying to say here is that you should allow people to air their views without adding any ethnic dimension to it.

As for the oil companies, they are private companies and as such they have no tribal affliction.

Simple question IS Retardeen president of Ijaws or president of Nigeria?

If he is President of Nigeria then Shouldnt Nigerians have a right to criticize him?

Ejiné: - in response to an earlier post by Alj Harem;

"Hahaha! Another classic attempt at trying to bring Igbo people in every issue. But I'm glad your (Alj Harem's) con has totally played out.

Anyway, it's only a matter of years before you're all officially crippled by polio and leprosy, so I guess that's a good reason for me to rejoice"

Ejine, you seem to be one of the remaining few NLers who STILL make the mistake of thinking that Alj Harem is a Hausa-Fulani Northerner. You keep repeating this mistake so much that I need to re-post my earlier post on this issue; you are still FREE to continue to attack the 'Abokis' and the 'Almajiris' to your delight, but you should not be doing so as a response to a post from Alj Harem, because he is NOT 'an Aboki', as I made it clear in one of previous post below:

Politics / Re: The Situation In Yorubaland by NorthSharp(m): 1 month & 11 days

"It really amazes me how some Igbo and other posters on this forum STILL believe, most naively, that Alj Harem is a Hausa-Fulani from the North, in spite of all the many clues in his posts that so clearly point to the contrary! And, even more importantly, in spite of the fact that he so categorically stated, on more than one occasion, that he is NOT a Hausa-Fulani!

For the first time, I feel compelled to let everybody on this forum know that ALH HAREM IS NOT A HAUSA-FULANI NORTHERNER; any full-blooded Hausa-Fulani like myself could effortlessly figure that out after reading just a couple of his posts.

Alh Harem must have his own personal reason(s) for not coming out clearly, unambiguously and proudly to reveal his true ethnic background, and I am personally not interested in finding out what his ethnic group is, or why he chooses to behave the way he does; it is up to you guys who want to continue to engage him in ethnocentric debates to find out his true ethnic background, but PLEASE count us (Hausa-Fulani Northerners) out of it.

You (Igbo and other posters) are free to continue with your favourite pastime of hurling all sorts of unprovoked hateful and malicious ethnic insults against us, as venomously as you like, but you should stop insulting the Hausa-Fulani northerners in response to any of Alj Harem's comments, because HE IS DEFINITELY [color=#990000]NOT ONE OF US (and no offence whatsoever is intended by this emphasis)"

.

How come the Yorubas didnt flare up when other tribes were criticizing OBJ

jason123:

Gbawe, @highlighted, that is the type of country we live in. . . It is quite shameful! Double standards at its best.

My brother, it is issues like this that make some of us conclude GEJ is a very dangerous and deceptive man.

If talks are about something as petty as the colour of GEJ's socks, Abati will be there trading insults like a market women.

Yet when the Presidency , as the number one promoter of peace and harmony in the nation, should actually make a statement to show it does not support an unacceptably bigoted slur against an ethnic group, especially as it was propagated in defense of GEJ, all we get is silence. Who will not think that amounts to tacit support for Dokubo-Asari's ugly and uncouth noise? GEJ seems very happy to sit back and watch bigoted and ethnocentric discord and bad blood raised in his name. That is not the behaviour of a man fit to be President of a Nation with so many ethnic groups.

ACN is a party that has since lost my respect. There is no cry over Tinubu because of his birthday creating traffic sometimes last 2 weeks but there is one over a church renovated and donated to the president. Nigeria is ruled by bunch of idiots and unfortunately, the most stupid ones are the ones who either live in deceit or choose to deceive others because of some material gains they get from those in power.
If things continue like this, we can only weep for the future of Nigeria.

an ijaw man becoming the president of nigeria has exposed how low they can be in their reasoning. when alams was the gov, he was humiliated and pushed out of the office and able jonathan took over but how did that change the situation in the state? ben bruce when he wanted to be the gov of bayelsa state after working for jonathan to become president through is silver bird exposed how jonathan performed in the state and ribadu exposed the $13m bayelsa money stolen by our current first lady and he (ben Bruce) got the knock. he (ben) later told us that he tot it was going to be a competition but it was unfortunate that it was only a coronation that is how free and fair our elections are under jega.
back to the issue on board, ijaw ppl said they have the oil, jonathan their own son is the president of the jungle(nigeria) and all he could bring for them is a church gotten through bribery. it is a shame that human beings are now playing politics even with the house of God.

Flyboy Zee: @ Shymmex and co, I don't blame you. If not that Seun is an outstanding Yorubaman with his idea of Nairaland, I would have known what to tell you. However, you speak like a very myopic, uneducated, silly opportunist who thinks Naija is all about Lagos. Simple geography we all started learning from SS 1, you still don't know at this age. Well, if the Ijaw youths had insisted that all the oil companies operating within their land should move their head offices from Lagos to the State where they have the greatest operations, I don't think you would have had anything to say, but fortunately for you, they (the Ijaws) didn't.

The Ijaws are not as cowardly as the Yorubas. If you doubt that, just go to Ajegunle in your Yoruba Lagos and ask about what the Ijaws did to the Yorubas some years back.

One evidence that points to the quantity of oil produced by each state can be seen in the monthly Tell magazines where they publish Revenue shared by the Federal Government every month. Please, check the column for 13% Derivation to get some education you are obviously lacking.

It hurts and irks so much when you sincerely contribute so much to a nation's coffers to enhance development and gets so little, while some people who thrives on their laziness in the name of professorship and high-learnedness and achieves nothing but mud houses and squealing poverty (Ekiti for instance) make some noise and talk rubbish on an internet forum. For once, let me ask: WHAT ARE THE YORUBA PEOPLE CONTRIBUTING TO THE REVENUE GENERATED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT? I beg and wait for an answer. Seun, if you like ban me. That buffoon, Shymmex or whatever has touch something he dared not even look at.

I think this issue has been over flogged on this platform.Ekiti state and Bayelsa were created at the same time,so i challenge you to a review of how the two states have fared since their creation and am saying this considering the massive amount of cash bayelsa gets for doing absolutely nothing.Ekiti didn't attain national relevance just cos some dark materials is seeping from its ground up but we know without oil Jonathan will never have been Nigerian president.Please thank your star for the crude oil without it your situation would have been be a lot worse.
Finally, shame on me for using Bayelsa as a cover up for leadership mediocrity in Ekiti state,I accept we have a long way to go but using such a bottom standard as a basis of assessment is unacceptable.May we never saddle the whole country with a shockingly clueless individual.

kai such a m0ron... Did u go to school at all? I doubt it...How much are the oil companies in lagos contributing to lagos pocket? Lagos has being the commercial center of nigeria even b4 oil was discovered in ur ogoro village.. Do u think that sum oil companies are enough to bring lagos down?... Number 2 u said what are the yorubas contributing to nigeria... Lemme quickly remind u if ur brain has being formatted... B4 oil was discovered in the south... Cocoa and groundnut was the major source of revenue in nigeria.. The same money was used to built highest sky scrapper (cocoa house in ibadan) same money was used to built nta the first television station in the whole of africa.. Schools (like premier university of ibadan) etc.. Free education that even ur local people benefited immensly from the same money was used to exploit oil in ur dirty village... When the millitary came into power they distroyed everytin and based everytin on oil... The same oil that caused disunity amoung nigerians... By the way talking of oil.. What about the oil wells in ondo state? Is ondo state part of south south atleast the last time i checked ondo gets 13% derivation as oil producing state... Now far from it... Yorubas are educated are industrious people that doesnt need any stupid oil to survive by the way will all the oil u are shoutin how much z being allocated to sw states... Lagos wit d highest population gets 8billion while ph get 15billion . Ibadan is getting around 2-3bil while akwa ibom gets up 12billion...what is the difference btw the two state?can u still compare lagos with ph despite all d oney allocated to ph?... Do ur research b4 u talk in public forum so u wnt look like a fo0l

since an ijaw man became the president of nigeria, we have had bloody Christmas and bloody Easter and in replacement, we have a church donation/bribe.
the ijaw man speaking must know that nigerians are aware that he did not, will not and cannot win elections outside appointment. a bayelsa state where over 10,000 police and other forces were used to select fools like the one talking has nothing to do with democracy.
what are the common bayelsans gaining from the govt? how long will they go to church without work and security, no education, no pipe borne water, no hospital, no roads. it is a very big shame dogs are made rulers in nigeria.
jonathan is rich enough to build church and could have done that while he was the gov of the state. why must a contract donate a church to the president? it is a very big shame though jonathan was in no way thinking of becoming the president of nigerian until the devil and self acclaimed owner of nigeria thought it right.
