Sustainable development or even growth in the context of extractivism is an ugly oxymoron. Extractivism was built by colonialism and subjugation of peoples ands territories. Extractivism is unsustainable. nnimmobassey.net/2023/03/02/…

The Unsustainability of Extractivism

Extractivism lies at the base of the climate and food crises. It is propelled by a complex of mentalities and power differentials that are basically self-reinforcing in practice, underwriting and r…

Or @NnimmoB, who clearly articulates the strategic error of giving any room to CDR proposals: "There can be no safeguards if my land is going to be colonized or if I’m forced into carbon slavery because my lands and seas are turned into carbon burial grounds.”

Stealing the Nation @naturenews247 naturenews.africa/stealing-t… Oil theft has not only polluted our environment, but it has also polluted our national politics and criminalized our peoples

Stealing the Nation

By Nnimmo Bassey To say that Nigeria is being stolen is an understatement. It is a sordid situation. Shocking stories

The Nigerian government and the oil majors to take immediate steps to commence an environmental and health audit of Ikarama and the entire Niger Delta and commence a thorough cleanup of the entire region. The people must not be denied the right to life! nnimmobassey.net/2022/06/16/…

The Ikarama Paradox

There are communities in the Niger Delta that would compete to have the dubious notoriety of being the oil spills capital of the world due to the regularity of oil spill incidents they experience. …
