Oml 25 host communities tackle wike
It seems like you're referring to a recent development in Nigeria, specifically in Rivers State. For those who may not be aware, "OML 25" stands for Oil Mining Lease 25, which is a major oil block in the Niger Delta region.
From what I gather, 25 host communities in Rivers State have taken a bold step by issuing a joint statement, criticizing the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, over his handling of the OML 25 oil block. The communities are reportedly unhappy with the governor's alleged failure to address their concerns and provide adequate compensation for the environmental degradation and social impacts caused by the oil operations in their areas.
The communities are demanding that the governor takes concrete steps to address their grievances, including the provision of infrastructure, job opportunities, and environmental remediation. They are also calling for a review of the oil block's operating agreement to ensure that the benefits of the oil operations are shared more equitably among the communities.
This development highlights the ongoing tensions between oil-producing communities and the government in Nigeria, particularly in the Niger Delta region. The region has been plagued by environmental degradation, oil spills, and social unrest, which have led to widespread poverty and inequality.
It will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds and whether the governor's administration will take concrete steps to address the concerns of the host communities.
