Its no secret they love exploiting the problems of african/black governments and nations. Once nigeria gets rid of those corrupt leaders and system, it will bloom like the other countries that discovered oil. good luck nigeria.

The people of Niger Delta SHOULD seek for a seperate homeland. They are so impoverished and poor while the Nigerian oil wealth is used to build Lagos and Abuja at the detriment of the people whose land the oil is extracted. Oil wells will someday dry up.....the west is aggressively looking for alternative energy and they are not too far from finding it. Declare a sovereign nation and put an end to this sham union called Nigeria that was unilaterally put together by the imperialistic Britain.

An Intergovermental Agreement has been signed, July 3, to lay a 2,565-mile trans-Sahara gas pipeline from Nigeria's city of Warri through the country of Niger to Algeria's Mediterranean coast. Corporate partners involved are NNPC (Nigeria), SONATRACH (Algeria) and GAZPROM(Russia). This is Nigeria's Islamic influenced leadership's policy of siphoning energy resources of the Niger Delta, without consultation or consent of the rightful owners, for Arab and European consumption.

"The capital of Nigeria, which was formerly in Calabar, was moved to Lagos, the people did not react, substantial part of Bakassi was ceded to Cameroun, our people did not react. And now, the ceding of our oil wells and declassification as a littoral state. It must be warned that we are approaching a boiling point and may not be able to guarantee peace if these acts of provocation are not redressed.." --- Cross River State Elders Consultative Forum. -- This Day Newspapers. Thursday July 2, 2009.

"The leaders (of host communities) alleged that the Nigerian soldiers had killed no fewer than 6,000 men and women in the area since the Federal Government declared war on militants in the Niger Delta, lamenting that many more Ijaw young men and women were still missing without any means of tracing them." ----- Nigerian Tribune Newspapers. Friday June 26, 2009.

"What right does Femi Otedola and Aliko Dangote and others have to take our oil while somebody from the oil community does not have the right to take it?" --- Asari Dokubo. Daily Independent Newspapers. Thursday June 25, 2009.

[hinnies1]

[olujoygiver]

The problem of poverty does not affect the nier delta region alone. All of nigeria is a mess. Only the rich live. There are no schools anywhere, no jobs anywhere, the niger delta region is not unique in nigeria. Lagos is worse

[sexymalcom1970]

@calhountubs1 please dont misunderstand my comments. The west is an enemy of africans always has always will. What im implying is soon the masses in africa will wake up and demand a revolution of ideas and probable violence. The west should play a proactive sensible fair part in the continent to avoid these revolutions which benefit noone

[calhountubs1]

@sexymalcom1970 I like violence too. I like you. Mama say whitey gone crazy in Africa.

[sexymalcom1970]

@calhountubs1 its got nothing to do with white people its all about corrupt politicians, traitors, tribalistic thieves, and greedy western capitalists who feel they can exploit natives of their resources. I dont like violence, im indifferent, its natural

[hoadmaback]

I am caucasian living and working here in Nigeria.

Its so sad how the people I see in the street who have nothing, not even a roof over their heads seem to think I as a white man have caused the current state of their country.

Meanwhile the thieving corrupt rich Nigerians who are the reason the country is as F*cked up as it is, are respected, by the poor, cause they are rich.

?????????
