In Solidarity with Ogoni People: Condemnation of Plans to Resume Oil Production
Oil Change International, in solidarity with civil society organizations in the Niger Delta, condemns in the strongest terms the Nigerian government’s plans to resume oil production in Ogoni land. This decision disregards the longstanding environmental destruction, economic hardship, and social injustices endured by the Ogoni people due to decades of exploitative oil operations. Rather than addressing these historical grievances, the government is choosing a path that will deepen the suffering of communities already devastated by the toxic legacy of extractivism.
