This is an Environmental and Health hazard.
Relevant agencies should please address the root cause of this and assist to eradicate it.

No bro...this is a major environmental hazard and sabotage. The soot in question is very carcinogenic and mutagenic. It can induce cancers in adults and mutations in infants and fetuses. This calls for urgent attention.

The cough is even what frightens me. I now leave my windows almost closed. It is terrible what we are facing in Port Harcourt.

Wike should publish the report of the committee on Black soot. Stop playing with people's lives. Have people not died enough in Port Harcourt?

This is unholesome and unacceptable, what is Rivers state government and the federal government doing about this ugly situation?

All the multinational oil companies operating in that state should be help responsible for any life lost due to this development.

Totally not acceptable

The worst part is that a lot of people are dying. If the churches release the number of people that died this year, you will shiver.

No one is thinking the rising death rate is caused by this environmental disaster called black soot.

Cancer rates will triple in the population of Rivers State in the next five years.

Get ready for Lung Cancers, Breast Cancers, Colon cancers and Brain tumors.

Leukemia in children will triple...

This is a public health nightmare!

Re: Black Soot: Early Morning Weather Condition In Rivers State by phineas: 2:34pm On Dec 25, 2021
What can be done?

1. Get people to research the cause

2.the community must join hands and ask for the root cause to stop or be controlled.preach it from the puplits.call the parents of defaulters to call their wards to order etc

3.If its mutlinationals sue them here and abroad

4.Consider exploring legal means to compel Goverment to take action

5.Rivers indigenes dont just talk.Take legally endorsed action for the sake of your children.

the most unfortunate thing is that they could be a commoner going about their daily biz legally. To die for another person's mistake is one of the most painful way to die. This country is cursed
