NGA community in the Warri South-West Local Government Area of Delta State, Nigeria, has staged a peaceful protest against an ongoing oil spill in the OML 42 area. The spill, attributed to an aged and corroded section of the Trans-Forcados Pipeline, has been affecting local waterways, destroying aquatic life, farming areas, and posing health and safety risks to residents. Protesters, led by community representatives, demanded urgent action from the oil company and relevant authorities to address the spill, warning that they might shut down oil operations if no progress is made. The community claims the spill has persisted for six months and has caused significant environmental damage, including concerns over potential fires and displacement of residents.
