Politicians and community chiefs will be the beneficiary of the money and not the targeted most affected by the damage.
They will sit in Abuja and share the money among themselves to the last kobo,.we have seen this too many times in this country...

I see more oil companies exiting Nigeria. Granted they caused economic and environmental damages to the community but there's no way they will pay this amount and still be in business especially with the way the world is moving forward to green energy.

Another thing is that this will encourage other communities to jump into the wagon and many lawyers will take up such cases without asking for a dime from the communities until judgement awards billions and they take percentage.


This "awa oyel" we will eventually drink it

In Ibeno oil money is always shared across family line, so let not be negative oga

mosedgreat:
You're very correct. I am from one of the villages in Ibeno. Though base in Lagos. I and all my siblings have already filled and submitted the oil spillage form to the head of my village. When it is eventually received by the village I will get mine. I have gotten similar funds in the past when I was staying at Calabar. Even my wife and children will benefit as long as form was filled for them.

Ibeno is a LGA comprising of several villages.

The money is for just 1 local government.

frog12:
but was it a CSO or group of individuals that went to court, or the LGA ?

If the LGA was not involved, it will not receive the money!

I suspect the LGA no get liver to take government to court
