But often there are complex reasons behind what appears to be simple, with a lot of the complexity being local in origin.

https://nigerianqueries.com/major-oil-and-gas-companies-in-nigeria/ is useful, to the extent it's accurate--notice the % ownerships.

quite certain that he plans to stay on in 2029.

These strikes against innocents are Pavlovian. They are meant to condition our armed forces to strike without questioning, including against countrymen to put down rebellion when necessary.
