The North is mistaking the civility of the South for stupidity

“I saw the below elsewhere and decided to share so that my readers would see the kind of Country we call our own. You can continue doing political correctness and call those of us who harp on the injustice, imbalance and unfairness in Nigeria names, but I can assure you that very soon, “you go see am for bodi”.

It took less than 6 months for the senate to pass the North East Development Commission (NEDC) BILL.
It has taken more than 14 years and 4 presidents, yet the PIB bill is nowhere to be passed.

It took less than 4 Hours for Kano State to be smuggled into North East Region for the purpose of enjoying from NEDC ( Kano State is in the North West oh, very far from the North East).
For more than 10 years Northern Senators have been trying to define ‘Oil bearing communities’ .Does it include villages with petrol stations and pipelines?

It took less than 3 months for us to agree to set aside 3 % of total VAT accruals to fund the reconstruction of NE. ( including VAT from alcohol. Alcohol is banned in sharia States).

For more than one generation, we are still arguing how to fund the clean up of hydro carbon polluted sites in the Niger Delta and Ogoni.

The Board of NEDC is made up entirely of people from the North and North East.

The Board of NDDC is made up of every tom, dick and harry to ensure adequate geographical spread. ( NDDC has representatives from the North East, North West and North Central, even when no State there is a member).

The FG wants to borrow 30 billion US dollars for ‘capital’ projects! Not one of this project is located in the entire South! Yet, oil located in the south will be used to upset the loan when due

This is our country! This is our story”
