Hi archos,

Yup, escalating is a good word but this time an understatement I think. Forcados Terminal, Soku Gas, Ekulama to name but a few are being evacuated.

The flow will decrease, oil and gas prices will rise and the Federal Government will make even more money and squander it on personal luxuries or projects for their cronies.

I saw the Rivers State Government jet at PH on my way to Paree with Air Chance the other day. Very impressive. They could have built quite a few roads/schools/clinics with what that costs to buy and operate I should think.

Such a shame to see kids queuing at standpipes for water, no electricity, a farsical telephone system and a waste of human resource in what should be the most prosperous country in Africa.

Rant over. I'm off to drown my sorrows.

NEO.
