Understanding The Oil Theft Business In Nigeria (All About Stolen Crude)

ALL ABOUT STOLEN CRUDE...Things you would never have known. BY ENA OFUGARA

I have heard some of the dumbest statements about crude oil theft from some top social critics who have never taken the time to read up or understand oil theft in the Niger Delta of Nigeria or globally. I do not know if maybe because there is little material available that deeply explains the goings-on

I have found that like me when I watch football and my team is losing, even if it is to a much better-prepared, organized and financially savvy team, I scream at my team's coach who is not even the goalkeeper that allowed in a goal my late grandma would have caught with her arthritis. NO! I still scream "he no sabi coach. the coach yeye. sack am". So also have many Nigerians been at daggers-drawn with the administration of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, many accusing him of either being indolent in the fight to stop oil theft, complicity in or in fact being the very thief of the crude. The only thing I have not heard is that the President's black colour/complexion is the crude that poured on him on one of the crude oil stealing missions

Sanyeri Wedding Ceremony

"When i meet my wife back then, i didn't have the financial muscle to have a proper wedding, but i thank GOD that I'm now capable to do the needful, and it's also a way of appreciating my wife of staying with me even when i had nothing.
You know, not a lot of women can take risks.Some women believe that when they want to get married, they should settle with someone who is already Comfortable, but when my wife met me, even i myself didn't know where i was heading to in terms of my future. To feed myself alone was even difficult; talk more of an extra mouth.

She just took that risk, and i thank GOD that it has ended well for her, Since it has turned out like this I have to show her my appreciation, and also to let people know that i'm a good person. I just pray to God to make it peaceful, and for everybody that will be attending, Journey mercies as they travel fro and back from the ceremony. I also dont want fights or rancour of any kind. After the wedding, I've also promised my wife we'll be having our honeymoon In Germany!"
