In 2011 the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) published a report detailing the terrible state of Ogoniland in Nigerias Niger Delta by Shell Dutch Petroleum.
Oil exploration and production mainly by the Royal Dutch Shell has brought pain and misery to the Ogoni people whose means of sustenance has been adversely affected.
They cannot till the soil because it is not cultivatable so they stay without food. They cannot fish because the creeks have become poisoned with petroleum products and most of them are fishermen.
They have been drinking the contaminated water with its high level toxic substances which are cancer causing.

The multinational corporation Shell financed, armed, and otherwise colluded with the Nigerian military forces that used deadly force and conducted massive, brutal raids against the Ogoni people of the Niger Delta. Shell was also involved in a strategy that resulted in the executions of nine Ogoni leaders who were working for environmental justice and human rights, including internationally-acclaimed writer and activist Ken Saro-Wiwa. The Center for Constitutional Rights, EarthRights International and other human rights attorneys sued Shell for their role in the repression of the Ogoni and the executions of the "Ogoni Nine". The case was settled before a trial could begin. As part of the settlement Shell will be paying out $15.5 million to the plaintiffs.

W2TV Vault: Ogoni Solidarity Network Launched with Boycott $hell Rally
Coast Salish Territories (March 28, 1996) - First of the Boycott $hell rallies, later the Ogoni Soliarity Network actions working with Dr. Owens Wiwa and the Movement for the Survival of Ogoni People. The Ogoni are the indigenous people of the Niger River delta in Nigeria. On November 10, 1995, nine Ogoni minority rights activists (including writer/poet Ken-Saro-Wiwa) were hanged by the military government of Nigeria with the complicity of $hell.
The video was broadcast on EarthSeen on April 1996 (Rogers' cable community channel) though some visuals have been added in this later version. The visuals from Nigeria are from from the film Delta Force directed by Glen Ellis. Permission to use footage was given by Dr. Owens Wiwa to used in solidarity with the Ogoni. He noted the film could not have been done without the Ogoni and family's co-operation.
As well, the graphics were added for this upload to this master cut thus names and titles missing. Jaggi Singh is the first interview and we are hoping folks can help identify the others. Unfortunately the gremlins have some of the interviews out of sync and while can be fixed, we would rather move onto the other pieces.

Ogoni people are one of the many indigenous peoples in the region of southeast Nigeria. They share common oil related environmental problem with the Ijaw people of Niger Delta, but Ogonis are not listed in the list of people historically belonging to Niger Delta. They number about one point five million people and live in a 404-square-mile (1,050 km2) homeland which they also refer to as Ogoni, or Ogoniland.
The Ogoni rose to international attention after a massive public protest campaign against Shell Oil, led by the Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People (MOSOP).
The territory is located in Rivers State on the coast of the Gulf of Guinea, east of the city of Port Harcourt. It extends across the Local Government Areas (LGAs) Khana, Gokana, Tai, and Eleme. Traditionally, Ogoniland is divided into the six kingdoms of Babbe, Eleme, Gokana, Ken-Khana, Nyo-Khana, and Tai.
The Ogoni speak the related, mutually intelligible languages of Khana, Gokana, Tai (Tẹẹ), Eleme and Ban Ogoi part of the linguistic diversity of the Niger Delta.

Coast Salish Territories (March 28, 1996) - First of the Boycott $hell rallies, later the Ogoni Soliarity Network actions working with Dr. Owens Wiwa and the Movement for the Survival of Ogoni People. The Ogoni are the indigenous people of the Niger River delta in Nigeria. On November 10, 1995, nine Ogoni minority rights activists (including writer/poet Ken-Saro-Wiwa) were hanged by the military government of Nigeria with the complicity of $hell.
The video was broadcast on EarthSeen on April 1996 (Rogers' cable community channel) though some visuals have been added in this later version. The visuals from Nigeria are from from the film Delta Force directed by Glen Ellis. Permission to use footage was given by Dr. Owens Wiwa to used in solidarity with the Ogoni. He noted the film could not have been done without the Ogoni and family's co-operation.
As well, the graphics were added for this upload to this master cut thus names and titles missing. Jaggi Singh is the first interview and we are hoping folks can help identify the others. Unfortunately the gremlins have some of the interviews out of sync and while can be fixed, we would rather move onto the other pieces.
Don Walchuk and I have unearthed much community television footage from the Boycott $hell campaign in Greater Vancouver. Hopefully, we will soon be uploading more. It's our hope the struggle against the tars sands can be inspired and learn from the Ogoni struggle.

The Ogoni are the indigenous people of the Niger River delta in Nigeria. On November 10, 1995, nine Ogoni minority rights activists (including writer/poet Ken-Saro-Wiwa) were hanged by the military government of Nigeria with the complicity of $hell.
The video was broadcast on EarthSeen on April 1996 (Rogers' cable community channel) though some visuals have been added in this later version. The visuals from Nigeria are from from the film Delta Force directed by Glen Ellis. Permission to use footage was given by Dr. Owens Wiwa to used in solidarity with the Ogoni. He noted the film could not have been done without the Ogoni and family's co-operation.
As well, the graphics were added for this upload to this master cut thus names and titles missing. Jaggi Singh is the first interview and we are hoping folks can help identify the others. Unfortunately the gremlins have some of the interviews out of sync and while can be fixed, we would rather move onto the other pieces.
Don Walchuk and I have unearthed much community television footage from the Boycott $hell campaign in Greater Vancouver. Hopefully, we will soon be uploading more. It's our hope the struggle against the tars sands can be inspired and learn from the Ogoni struggle.

Nigeria News: MOSOP Declare Political Autonomy -- Exclusive Interview
► Subscribe to BattaBox on YouTube: http://goo.gl/4dgy2r (Latest Nigeria News) President of Movement of the Survival of the Ogoni People - Dr Goodluck Diigbo - has declared political autonomy for the Ogoni people.

"We should remain part of Nigeria - we are not saying we are out of Nigeria. We have a choice as part of this declaration to be part of it or out of it and at this moment we are part of Nigeria."

The Ogoni people shutdown Shell operations in Ogoniland in the Niger Delta during widespread protests in the 1990's during which then leader of MOSOP - Ken Saro Wiwa - was hanged by the Abacha regime.
Any effort to restart oil production in Ogoniland, Celestine warned, would be resisted "by any means."

Poster owns no copyright to Mike MacDonald's Much Music interview with King Cobb Steelie videotaped on Much Music in the late 90's regarding Ken Saro-Wiwa, Nigerian author, television producer, environmental activist and winner of the Goldman Environmental Prize. Saro-Wiwa was an Ogoni, an ethnic minority in Nigeria whose homeland, Ogoniland in the Niger Delta, had been targeted for crude oil extraction since the 1950s and underwent extreme environmental degradation from decades of petroleum waste dumping by multinational petroleum corporations. Initially a spokesperson and finally President of the Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People (MOSOP), Saro-Wiwa started a nonviolent campaign against environmental degradation of Ogoniland by multinationals, particularly Shell. Saro-Wiwa was an outspoken critic of the Nigerian government owing to non-enforcement of environmental regulations on foreign petroleum companies, was arrested, hastily tried by a special military tribunal and hanged in 1995 by the military government of General Sani Abacha on charges viewed as unfounded. His execution provoked international outrage resulting in Nigeria's suspension from the Commonwealth of Nations for over 3 years. Louisiana's problems with BP have historical precedents indicating petroleum companies are not particularly benevolent corporate citizens, governments prefer corporate criminals to environmental activists, and prefer creating martyrs to sacrificing profits. Only a 3 year suspension? Maybe governments should hang anyone protesting against "the will of the people" (meaning so-called elected representatives such as themselves). The tale gives new meanings to "mitigation" and "compensation" my education in renewable resource management only vaguely alluded to.
