Massive oil & gas discovery offshore Somalia

[waraabe]

Because barre didn't want the economy to be reliant and oil wasn't found in Somalia until late 60s

What a dumb reason.


Time for you guys to accept there is no oil

 

[Coolorte]

Can you guys tell me if there was oil why it wasn't extracted in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s

Siad Barre refused.

 

[waraabe]

50s and 60s doesn't count as the tech was very bad. They were only going after the cheap stuff that was easy to extract (Saudis).

70s and 80s because Barre was a maniac.

Oil was being extracted in a lot of nations, it was fuelling the Cold War so demand was an all time high.

Siyaad would rather beg the soviets and Americans then extract oil? I don't buy it

 

[waraabe]

Oil is a double edged sword. We were rich without oil so it'd be better to leave it just in case shit went throught the roof

When were we rich?

Is that why Somalis used to beg USA and soviets

 

[waraabe]

Siad Barre refused.

Not in the 50s and 60s.

70s he was desperate so I don't believe he was in a position to refuse anything

 

[waraabe]

We made deals with us and soviets. It's not begging if we are paying them back afterwards and yes once upon a time we were an african superpower. We weren't considered a 3rd world country.

Sxb we have always been a poor third world people. Don't believe the propaganda that Somalia was some how a great nation.


Don't get your hopes depending on non existent oil too

 

[waraabe]

True we were always poor. We were poor when we defeated portugese we were poor when we controlled 65% of Ethiopia we were poor when we were the trading hub of the world we were poor when we were considered the superpower of africa yup we were poor!

We? Ajuuran with the help of ottomans rebelled the Portuguese.

Adal Muslim sultanate also took on Ethiopia with the help of all Muslims in the region.

We were never a trading hub (bring evidence)

We were never a superpower of Africa

Wallahi i cant take you serious.
You either a self hating bastard and a disgrace of great clan of Isaaq or a unstobble troll.

Pick one.

 

[waraabe]

You retard we had strongest military in Africa which= african superpower

 

[Hawdian]

You retard we had strongest military in Africa which= african superpower

Yeah until Siad barre destroyed our country and turned it into a shithole after he messed with the wrong tribes, specially Isaaq which is why he was overthrown by them.

Siad barre didn't really benefit Somalia, only new generation somali's who are less tribilistic and have educated background can change somalia inshallah.

Somalia was stronger than Egypt and South Africa?

The first country to pump Somali Oil will be Ethiopia , allow it. 2017

 

[Galaeri]

Oil isn't supposed to leave the ground until the country is stable and has some technology. The oil will become a curse before it becomes a blessing if it extracted in the coming years.

If they don't use offshore oil they will also have Shitty clans killing each other to claim the land lol.
