Host communities of oil and gas have been tasked to bring long-term abuse and neglect in the Niger Delta by multinational companies to an end, through sustained environmental monitoring and advocacy.
The Executive Director of Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF), Nnimmo Bassey urged the communities to ensure that economic interests of investors did not threaten the environment.
He stressed the need to raise community activists, who will defend the ecosystem from degradation and pollution.
