What Shell Was ‘discovered To Be Doing’ In Rivers Community by AnotherZik: 1:11pm On Feb 28, 2018
Multinational oil company, Shell Petroleum Development Company, SPDC, has been accused by the Movement for the Survival of Ogoni People, MOSOP, of keeping a site in K-Dere community, Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State where it is dumping waste allegedly toxic to humans.

Publicity Secretary of MOSOP, Fegalo Nsuke, who disclosed this in Bori, headquarters of Khana LGA, said that samples from the site were sent to a laboratory in the United Kingdom and that the results obtained had confirmed the toxicity of the site.

He alleged that Shell had buried the wastes in the area for many years, noting that intense heat forced the buried substance to become exposed towards the end of 2017 prompting community investigation.

Nsuke revealed that Shell had attempted to cover up the impact, noting that the moves were prevented by local dwellers who insisted on an independent investigation.
