    " ...83% of oil blocks owned by northerners"

    .

    This is most revealing. Thanks to Senator Enang

    .

    These same people, the Northern Islamic oligarchs who control the wealth of Nigeria are the ones who whine all the time about "NORTHERN POVERTY". They also whine about losing political power even though key posts are still held by them. One really wonders what they really want.

    .

    Someone should make these facts known to Clinton and other Americans who feel the "North" is marginalized. They need to know that the same people control the wealth generated by the oil industry but that their priority is not how to develop their area.

    .

    Worst of all, this wealth is presently used in financing terrorism rather than developing the north or anywhere else. They whine about reflecting federal character only when it sooths them. FEDERAL CHARACTER IN OIL BLOCK ALOCATION IS A WONDERFUL IDEA

    .

    But the best idea and the best option is to get rid of the parasites. To EXCISE the Sharia North.

    .

    Let them have their Islamic Taliban republic and begin to work for and pay for those allocations, services and positions that are presently paid for by resources and money from other parts of Nigeria. Let them have their Islamic Taliban republic where they can practice their blood thirsty religion. Let them have their Islamic Taliban republic where they will pay the price for their delinquency. Let them have their Islamic Taliban republic where we can contain them as Israel contains the blood thirst Arab Mohammedans.

    .

    Now the poor families and educated youth in the region know better where to direct their anger and frustration. They now know the people who use the region to enrich themselves but wickedly deprive the same people. The Federal government should withdraw the JTF so that the masses can deal with the thieves
