Well meaning Nigerians should read a red alarm message into this declaration by Shell! what is the business of Shell to build a refinery for us in the first place? For as long our governments rely on its foreign clients to fulfil developmental goals in the country, we're not going to get far. It is the prerrogative of our governement to build refineries for the country as a matter of national need and pride.

Today Nigeria is suffering civil strife between Muslims and Christians. The government is under serious attack by average citizens for perceived corrupting and cronyism. International oil companies and their assets have been the targets of terrorism. No company will risk millions of dollars in investing in a refinery only to have it expropriated by the host government at some future date. Foreign capital will flow out of Nigeria unless it can reestablish some degree of political stability.

Refusing to build infrastructure like refineries is how they've kept the continent from building itself up since independence. They want to sell us our own oil. We should just increase taxes on them and build it ourselves.

HERE WE GO AGAIN WITH THE DISMISSIVE ATTITUDE , NO WE DID N'T SPILL THE NATIVES STOLE. THIS IS HOW THE WEST DEALS WITH CORRUPTION AND APATTHY. OF COURSE IT WAS SHELL WHO VIOLATED THEY DID NOT STAY ON TOP OF THEIR EQUIPMENT THEY DI NOT INTSALL PREOPERLY AS THEIR ONLY GOAL WAS TO ACHIEVE PROFITS. THEY ALSO PAID MILITARY TO KILL AND AND KEEP PROTESTYERS DOWN THE FISRT SPILLS OCCURED IN THE DELTA. THESE SPOKESPERSONS ARE JUST THE SAME PROPOGANIDST WHO SUPPORT THEIR GLORY HUINTING AND PROFITEERING WORLD WIDE. THESE ARE THEY WHO FEEL AS THEY THE SUPERIORIST ON THE PLANET. THEY LIE THEY STAEL THEY SELL RUMOURS AND THEY NEVR ACCP[ET RESPONSIBILITY. THYIS AGAIN THIS THE WORLD HEGEMONIST WHO ARE BASED ON INHUMANITY THEY SEEK ONLY VANITY. WHEN YOU WATCH THEM SLANDER PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD THAT ARE INDEPENDENT AND OPPOSE THEIR OPPRRESSIVE WAYS AND THEIR DISSMISSIVE BEHAVIOURS TOWARSD OTHERS. THEY AS A LARGE COMPANY SHOULD BY RIGHT SEEK TO MAKE REPARATIONS APOLOGISING TO THE PEOPLE OF THE DELTA FEELING THEIR PLIGHT AND DESIGNING MORE EFFECTIVE WAYS OF PREVENTING FURTHER SPILLAGES. THEY IN FACT DONT CAR THEY STILL CONTINUE TO SPILL THEY HAVE NT SINCE THEY HAVE BEEN IN NIGERIA UPDATED THEIR EQUIPMENT5 THEY ARE A VERYM WICKED SORT OF CRIMINALS . TH3EY ARE CRIMINALS PIRATES LIKE THEIR GRANDFATHERS THEY ARE EXTTORNIST. IMAGINE THEY PROPOSE TO TELL NIGERIANS WHAT IS GOOD FOR THEM. THE PEOPLE ARE CRYING OTU FOR CHEAPER REFINED FULE YET THEY ARE TELLIMNG THE NIGERIANS THEY DONT NEED IT THEY ARE TOO MANY IBN THE WORLD. SO WHAT THEY ARE ESSENTIALLY SAYING ; YOUR PEOPLE DONT COUNT YOU SHOULD NOT SAVE MONEY IMPRTING CONTINUE GIVING US YOUR MONEY WE WILL EXTRACT THE OIL AND SELL IT BACK TO YOU THIS WAY YOU WIN. AGAIN THEY TAKE AFRICANS FOR FOOLS. AFRICA NEEDS DISTILLERIES THIS WAY THE PEOPLE CAN AFFORD PETROL THEY CAN SEND THEIR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL THEY CAN HELP BUY UNIFORMS PAY FOR MEDICINES ETC. WE MUST KNOW BY NOW THAT THESE ARE SOME VERY CALLOUS AND ARROGANT PEOPLE. WHEN WE SEE THE SPILLAGE INTHE GULF OF MEXICO WE SEE HOW FAST THEY HAD TO ACT IN CLEARING THAT MESS. THEY ALSO HAD TO PAY BILLIONS IN COMPENSATION AND ALSO FINANCE PROJECTS FOR THE COMMUNITIES. THESE THINGS SHOULD HAPPEN IN AFRICA WE MUST ELLIMINATE CORRU8PTION SO THEY CANT BUY PEOPLE AND RUN FROM THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. I HAVE SAID ALREADY THESE ARE CRIMES AGAINTS HUMANITY AND THEY MUST BE SENTENCING GUIDELINES THAT WILL PROMT THESE PEOPLE TO KNOW THAT PRISON IS LOOMING THEY ARTE NOT ABOVE INTERNATINAL LAWS NOR ARE THEY SUBJECT TO ANY IMMUNITY WHEN IT COMES TO THE ENVIRONMENT. LET US BE CLEAR THEY CAN NOT MAKE WATER THEY DONT HAVE THE CAPACITY TO OR THE KNWOLEDGE TO EVN BEGIN TO THINKI THAT THEY CAN DO THIS. THEY CAN MAKE ALCOHOL THEY CAN MAKE SODA POP[S THEY CAN NOT MAKE WATER. THIS IS SME THING THAT THE "ALMIGHTY GOD" HAS GIVEN T US A FUNDAMENTAL WAY OF RETAINING LIFE . WE CAN NOT LIVE WITHOUT WATER. WE WILL DIE IF OURN WATER RESOURTCES ARE DESPLETED AR DESTROYED.LET US LOOK AT THEIR WINES WHICH THEY CLAIM WAS AMIRACLE JESUS PERFORMED AT THE WEDDING . WINE FOR ONE THING IF YOU DRINK TOO MUCH YOU WILL GET ROT GUT IT WILL POISON YOUR KIDNEYS YOUR LIVER WHICH WIL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO YOUR DEATH. WIE CAN NOT MAINTAIN YOUR LIFEV ON THIS PLANET WATER MOST DEFINITELY CAN. IF WE HAD WINE AND NO WATER WE WOULD SURELY DIE A MISERABLE DEATH. IF WE HAD WATER AND NO WINE WE WOULD LIVE A VERY LONG LIFE. WATER IS A GIFT FROM THE "ALMIGHTYU GOD" THIS IS SOMETHING WE MUST CHERISH AND NEVER UNDERMINE ITS GREAT CONTRIBUTIONS. WATER BRINGS FOOD FOR US TO EAT THERE IS ABUNDANCE OF LIFE THAT WATER IS HERE FOR. ALL THE ANIMALS SEEK WATER FOR LIVING THEY WALK HUNDREDS OF MILES PER YEAR TO REACH WATER HOLES THAT POCKET THEW CONTINENET. ANIMALS DONT DRINK ALCOHOL THEY DONT GET DRUNK THEY DONT SEEK WINE. ITS TIME AFRICA BECAME MORE INFORMED OF THEIR CULTURE AND REVERT TO THE NATURAL WAYS OF LIFE. THE WAYS OF THE WEST IS NOT FOR AFRICA. IF YOU CONTINUE YOU WILL DESTROY ALL YOUR FOREST YOU WATER SUPPLIES. IF YOU RUN OUF OF WATER YOU ARE IN TROUBLE. CONTINUING TO POISON THE WATER SUPPLIES IS NOT INTELLIGENT, TO DESTROY YOUR OWN LIFES IS A SIGN OF STUPIDIDTY IGNORANCE AND SUICIDE IF YOU ARE WILLING TO DO THIS FOR THESE OIL COMPANIES THIS SHOW YOUR MENTALITY. THESE PEOPLE NEED TO PAY FR THEIR EVIL AND THE NEED FOR DISTILLIRIES IN AFRICA IS NOT THEIR CALL . IF THEY HAVE THESE THINGS IN ABUINDANCE IN THE WEST GOOD FRO THEM. THIS IS NOT HELPING POOR PEOPLE IN AFRICA. WE NEED TO HAVE EASYACCESSIBLE GRADES OF KERSNE GASOLENE AND SO ON THIS IS A WAY F LIFE THAT NEEDS TO BESUSTAINED IFD WEM WANT TO DEVELOP TO A HIGHER STANDARD OF LIFE. THE PEOPLE OF AFRICA NEEDS THIS THEY ARE DESERVING OF WHATEVER THERE IS THAT CAN MAKE THEIR LIVES MORE EASIER. LET US GET THIS STRAIGHT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO DONATE FREE REFINED OIL MONTHLY TO NIGERIA, THEY WANT MONEY FOR THEIR REFINED PRODUCTS SO WHY SHOULD WE NOT HAVE THE SAME PRODUCTS MADE IN AFRICA. THERE ARE MARKETS WITHIN AFRICA THAT WE CAN SELL TO CHEAPER. THEY DONT WANT YOU TO GET INVOLVED WITH THE MARKET WHY THEY WANT TO MO0NOPOLISE EVERYTHING THEY ARE GREEDY. THEY WANT TO COME INTO AFRICA EXPLOIT EXPLOIT EXPLOIT THEY WANT TO EXTRACT THE OIL AND THEN SELL IT BACK TO US. IN OTHER WORDS WE DO NOT NEED TO EDUCATE AND MOVE AWAY FROM A IMPORITNG ECONOMY THEY ATRE THE ONLY ONES THAT SHOULD DO THIS. THIS IS LIKE TELLING IRAN YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE NUCLEAR WHETHER OR NOT ITS FOR CIVILIAN USE YOU CAN NOT HAVE THIS THIS ONLY FOR WHITES . THESE ARE THEIR PRACTISES. IRAN HAS THE RIGHT TO ENRICH URANIUM LIKE ANY OTHER COUNTRY ONTHE PLANET W DONT HAVE ANY MASTERS IN THIS WORLD. THAT IS A FALSE NOTION THEY SEEMTO THINK THEY ARE WORLD MASTERS THIS THING HAS GOTTEN TO THEIR HEADS. THIS IS AFREE WORLD A FREE WORLD WE ARE ENTITILED TO DO AS WE LIKE. THEY LIKE TO ENGAGE IN SODMY THIS IS THEIR THING EVERYONE ELSE IS NOT INTO IT THEY ARE NO ONE IS TELLING THEM NOT TO PLAY UP IN DODO IF THIS IS WHAT THEY LIKE BUT NOT EVERYONE ELS LIKES THE THOUGHT OF THAT SO WE ARE FREE TO MAKE REFINED MATERIALS FROM OIL AND WE WANT TO MAKE ENRICHED URANIUM WE ARE FREE TO THAT AS WELL. WE WANT TO FLY ROCKET SHIPS TOO, THIS IS NOT AN EXCLUSIVE CLUB THIS IS A DEMOCRATIC WORLD . EVERYONE IS NOT CAUGHT UP IN THE HATE AND AD THE SCARE TACTICS THE WAR MONGERING. EVERY CONFLICT MUST COME TO AN END "THERE IS A TIME AND PLACE FOR EVERYTHING"
