For decades, BP’s activities in the Niger Delta had caused, and continue to cause, untold hardship not only to the Niger Deltans, but also to the Niger Delta natural habitat. If you compare the way the Nigerian government and BP has over the last few decades been dealing with environmental degradation in the Niger Delta with the manner in which the US government (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8655139.stm; http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8653039.stm), the Governor(s) of the North American State(s) concerned, local fishermen, environmental agencies and the BP company itself are collaborating to minimise the impact of this incident on the people and the environment, and the manner in which litigation are likely to emerge in connection with this US oil spillage (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8655683.stm), one wonders why THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT IS COLLABORATING WITH BP (AND OTHER INTERNATIONAL OIL COMPANIES) TO TREAT NIGERIANS LIKE POO, AND NIGERIA ITSELF LIKE A BANANA REPUBLIC! ONE CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT UNDER JG WOULD TAKE A LEAF FROM HOW THE US GOVERNEMNT IS PRESSURISING BP TO ACT. IF JG A NIGER DELTAN FAILS TO FACE THIS PROBLEM HEAD ON WITH THE BP, HE IS A SHAME TO HIS OWN KIT AND KIN, AND IN DEED THE ENTIRE COUNTRY, NIGERIA. |
