Again appearance of a black dust resembling a “black soot” on the surface of furnitures, cars, is becoming a thing to worry about here in Portharcourt.

From the Picture, you will think its about to rain but having a close look, you will realize that the sun is covered by the thick smoke coming from God knows where.
The substance covers cars, home furnitures, even when you try to wipe your nose you will notice this dark substance.

Pls oo you guys should help beg authorities to find lasting solutions to this black soot as people around are becoming scared.
Rivers state government pls do something...

For some time now, the soles of our feet has been black. I've almost opened a thread on this yesterday.

I even cleaned the dining table after breakfast some days back and I saw black residues.

This has little to do with illegal refineries and more to do with legal refineries.

The gas flares from our "Legal" refineries account for the largest in the world.

I stay in rumuomasi too.
It's unbearable.
Have you also noticed the terrible chemical smell at about 3:30 - 4:30am some early mornings?
Channel iwitness is the best platform to inform the necessary responsible bodies.

90% of constructiom work in Ph is church buildings. . You can pray and fast for the air to clear. Ask David Ibeyomie to ask Jesus for air filter.
