There is no oil in Lake Chad of Nigeria simple

I like to think this is a good move. But eh, it's a matter of security. It depends on if they can adequately contain the Boko Haram menace, because this will be a good chance for the Boko Haram to hit at Nigeria.
Believe you me, Biafra is only United because they want to break out of Nigeria.
If they succeed, civil wars will eventually erupt there. Well informed Ibos would understand why.

I wish this were true, maybe then the North would go its own way or at least advocate for full federalism.

Sadly I fear this is a hoax, no serious news outlet is reporting this story.

The OP didn't even post a map that pinpoints Lake Chad, why show us Kaduna?

Sloppy work OP. Try harder next time.

Mods, this is clickbait.

LOL. Let's see sha. The regolith is thicker on the Chadian sector of the basin that was a huge reason oil was only found in the Chadian sector. And also, the chad basin slopes into the Chadian sector. Former R&D at NNPC I've spoken to have said there is nothing on the Nigeria sector, now Kachikwu says they will soon start drilling. In fact when I was a student Exxon Mobil staffs came around for UAP and said there is nothing there, a guy that was on the team that discovered crude on the Chadian sector said there is no crude there (in the Nigerian sector). The truth about the chad basin is that intracratonic sag basins are NEVER prolific producers of crude oil, unless the chad basin has morphed into a frontier basin after some 3decades of exploration. All I can say to Kachikwu is "Drill baby, drill". After 4 or 5 dry wells, eye go clear.

[b][/b]It takes one to BREAK for another to succeed THROUGH!
Good development, now the so called OUR OYEL will be left dormant.

Who now loose?

S'otan. Omo to ba gbon ogbon kiku, agba a gbon ogbon sinsin

Hahahaha!!!

Awon eleyi ti goh sha.

Which oil well are they drilling at Lake Chad? Have they discovered it in commercial quantity after years of wasting tax payers' resources on prospecting?

Common sense should tell you that this junk here is just another cheap ploy by the deceitful APC government to toy with the emotions of the NDA.

As long as they submit the proceeds for sharing in Abuja, there is no problem with that....
It is out oil, let us share the money......


LMAO

.

Na there una go see the one wey senior Father. At least avengers no de kill people, but boko go finish una for there. Una eye go clear, then una go run come back to south

Some people eye go soon Clear....!!

see mumu zombie.
let them begin to drill in the north & share to the whole of Nigeria like they did with Niger Delta oil from independence till date.
come & think of it sef,APC has never said a single truth since they came into power,so why should we believe dis coz it might be anoda form of lie to make our freedom fighters to stop bombing.
Believe Buhari led govt at ur own peril.

I know it'll pain you
Haters

pacino26:


Nigeria can employ Directional Drilling, set up flow stations and pipe the crude to Warri Refinery in the spirit of one Nigeria If the gravity can't sustain pressure for long journey let them know there's always compressor stations to be constructed too.

We de here.

What a lack lustre attempt to show that you know a teeny lil bit about the oil industry. My friend re-construct your statements. Hope say you no be one mudlogger or mwd hand wey dey form oil guru for hia.....

temptnow:
I can't believe some people are celebrating this nonsense. Who in his right sense will want to go to boko haram compound in the name of drilling oil. Is buhari that stupidd. Jihad war doesn't end. They will still strike again and again. If it's a drug cartel or oil militant they have human sympathy. But jihad militant? If they catch you in close range they will butcher you into minced meat. If they like let them find Saudi Arabia in lake Chad, na wash.

What do you know by jihad?

wachakuta:


Why d insult?? Eee de Pain u?? Anyways as I said some people eyes go soon clear... ntooor!

please, "anyways" is a wrong English. The right word is anyway

Oya make we practice federalism na....abeg...Make them go drill....abeg....


Who ever thinks this news would distract the Niger deltas one bit is on a long thing....

This is good news. ..

Let all of us manage our resources....idiotas

Tweetbright:

u will never knw, just mark my words

First ur words would have to be REMARKABLE.

...and well sadly this one is just same bitter ignorant shiii

wachakuta:
Some people eye go soon Clear....!!

Nothing will clear, moreover they will get just 13% which will be lesser than what state like Abia is getting. I will be waiting to see them cry resource control even as boko militants will start their mayhem. I think the east gain the more with a huge untapped gas and crude untounched. Both Niger delta and igbos will Still share more than the so called lake chad oil. I think Nigeria generally loose from this. Lake chad basin oil deposit is not even a quarter of Anamabra oil fields. SORRY

Another propaganda, not even the one discovered in Lagos they are talking of Lake Chad.

We will soon get NORTHERN MILITANTS. people that see violence as food.

LOL at dry holes. Funny enough, all the best Geophysicists in the world have a handful of dry holes in their resume. They carefully fail to mention them. They only brag about discoveries.
On a more serious note, the statement "there is no oil in the Nigerian sector" is wrong. What you should say is "until" oil is discovered. You cannot say for a fact that there is no oil. With 5D seismic and all the techy advancements, it won't be long before pesin go hit pay.
[b]Anyway, the real question is why would a government that wants to diversify the economy, decide to explore for OIL? Same ol story. Depending on oil and hope prices come back up. This govt get any plan B at all?

[/b]Anyway

Honestly, I'm not surprised. When 90% appointment is concentrated on a particular region. We av a king in d North!

igboboy3:
The only reason Northerners preach "One Nigeria" is because of the oil in the SS. It is their lifeblood and they know it

You see why Buhari devoted 40bn to finding oil in Lake Chad.

Once Lake Chad drilling commences in earnest, northerners will suddenly want to divide Nigeria. Those who say "One Nigeria" is non-negotiable will start shouting "Divide Nigeria"

This country is a game, only the wise are aware

Just watch

.Stop talking rubbish.......

God will help Nigeria

nnachukz:
Good. Let it start. It will now be easy for us to go our separate ways or they can now start thinking in the line of true Federalism.

I don't think you should have any problem with them finding oil over there. This may lead to true federalism

Niger delta wishes them all the best. Funny people.

At least we all agree ,this is one of the benefits of the handiwork of the NDA.

Speaking of oil discoveries, I know there is one Ogo oil field in that Badagry/Dahomey basin, I don't know how far with that

Anyway, all these things aren't things we need to hoff pynt about because it's been more of a curse than a blessing

There are lots of other resources wasting all over the country....

And besides, Agric,tech and manufacturing look more promising

Ur ignorance is appalling. D Northern establishment has been secretly drilling oil from d Lake Chad basin for yrs,and Jonathan. was aware,but could do nothing about it. We should thank Buhari for bringing this to d general public's notice. To hell with d Niger Delta. To hell with Boko Haram. Long live Naija!!

Nigeria is technically finished

[size=13pt]Now perhaps they may start liking the idea of resource control, which actually will force just about every state in the country to become more productive (actually profitable).

It has been said that there is no state in Nigeria that does not have resources capable of making it productive/viable.[/size]

We de here.

Many non-Deltans who lost their lives to liberate the delta during the civil war when Biafra included them in their republic were Nigerians, whose blood consist only of oil. They dropped from Mars. Don't you think so?
