My community has experienced an oil spillage, which didn't just destroy water bodies but also the land and air. This has caused health problems, Job losses and other problems that relate to pollution became the order of the day.
The main issue now is that when these oil companies pay compensation for the damages, corrupt government officials and traditional rulers will syphon a large chunk of the money, and peanuts will be given to the main victims.
The problem is that the community people might die of hunger because their farmlands have been polluted which will kill the crops and the river where these community people get drinking water is also polluted, killing aquatic animals and making the river unfriendly for fishing. I feel that the government are not the problem but our heads that represent us are the snakes and vipers.
