Reps move to halt plan to cede Nigerian communities to Cameroon

has resolved to stop ongoing plans to cede the Danare and Biajua communities in the Boki Local Government Area of Cross River of Nigeria to the Republic of Cameroon.

He also said in July 2012, the Supreme Court ruled that Cross River had no right of ownership of over 76 oil wells due to the loss of its littoral status. “The fieldwork, which involves the location of the boundary points and placement of boundary pillars by the judgment, was undertaken by a Joint Technical Team , a sub-body of the Cameroon-Nigeria mixed commission.

He expressed worry that the JTT had not located pillar 113A and not traced pillar 113A, but they plan to adopt a straight-line method, leading to losing Danare and Biajua communities. He said the lack of concerted effort by the JTT to trace a critical pillar point that would determine the correct boundary line had generated controversy.
