Will they ever become capable? It is this kind of laissez-faire attitude that has made the country the big mess it is today.<br /><br />Gas flaring is the equivalent of someone coming to your house, using all your stuff and then pissing by your front door on the way out. It&#39;s a crude analogy - but the point is: it doesn&#39;t matter how much that person pays you to do that, it&#39;s just not right and I&#39;m sure you wouldn&#39;t be so accommodating as to say, &quot;Oh well I don&#39;t have the capacity to deal with so-and-so pissing at my front door now, so I&#39;ll just let it be...&quot;.Concerned reader[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-56205292814382728202010-04-27T07:13:41.750+01:002010-04-27T07:13:41.750+01:00Good talk, oga J.<br /><br />....but wait o! Something doesn&#39;t compute; Nija flares enough gas to supply Germany&#39;s energy needs, apparently.<br /><br />Then how can the solution to flaring be &#39;simply&#39; tapping it for host communities&#39; needs?<br /><br />The issue is not so simple. It is huge in scale and significance and Nigeria is currently incapable of dealing with the problem.<br /><br />Good to raise it as a talking point, though.<br /><br />ModibboAnonymous[email protected]
