DEVASTATION IN THE NIGER DELTA REGION
The Niger Delta region of Nigeria, with its size of over 70,000km2, is one of the most oil-polluted environments in the world with long history of neglect in the communities by international oil prospecting companies.
In most cases, rare vegetation have disappeared from the toxic effects of crude oil pollution, gas flaring and the extensive heat that affects the environment. Pollution consumes the ground from lack of pipeline security and control, resulting to the open wells they fetch their drinking water clearly contaminated. The poisonous effects on health and livelihood can be understated without little or no cleaning up of the impacted areas.
The recent Supreme Court ruling (Okpabi & others vs Royal Dutch Shell plc) in February 2021 for UK jurisdiction of environmental damage claims is a landmark judgement the communities are looking up for some fair justice.
