The situation is bad indeed.
According to Obietonbara Iyo, a native of Okrika, Rivers State, oil spillage has totally destroyed the community, to the extent of living creatures dying as a result of the harsh environment.
He posted these pictures and asked for help from the government and well-meaning Nigerians, to save the environment.
His post reads:
This is my little island village of Oba-Ama in Okrika,Rivers state Nigeria. I spent my entire day accessing the damage done to the environment by oil spills.
The sad thing is; For over three months no one in this community has gone out for fishing, in fact there are no more fishes to catch.
What's really interesting is that those illegally refining oil in my community that's causing the pollution are working with the military men deployed to the Area.
I'm calling on the government of Nigeria and all well meaning people around the world to please save my community. Please, help me share this until the government send real soldiers to come chase this criminals working with the criminal soldiers deployed to this area away.
