The soot in Port Harcourt is a terrible thing, it actually goes beyond Port Harcourt to most parts of Rivers State.
The oil bunkering in Rivers state is turning into a permanent business activity. Youths are going into it in droves. Our "Emperor" Wike is not worried about the health implications of those activities.
