ECONOMIC AND HEALTH IMPLICATIONS OF POLLUTION
The activities of these oil companies have led to the
spill of oil and blood all over the land and waters of Biafra including the
groundwater. UN after the study of the Ogoni area led by their Consultant of
Blessed memory Dr. Clement Faah, discovered that we have an all-time high level
of benzene in our rain water, ground and underground water. The Rivers State
Government quickly started supplying water to few spots and later built a water
plant for drinking in this few spots. We knew it was another political move
that cannot be sustained beyond weeks.
The report states in part, “The values obtained in this
current report in fishes from Rivers in Ogoni (Bodo creek), Choba and Bayelsa
are far above the rivers around Lagos and Nigeria and averages between 71.760
and 264610ng/g and 100 ug/kg compared to ng/kg in these other reports. The
value in this report also exceeds the PAHs of Potomac USA of 598 ng/kg used as
reference by many researchers... report submitted by Dr. Clement Faah. Then UN
replied the present report showing high values of the measured parameters in
Ogoni exposes the human inhabitants to possible lungs, kidneys, heart and
testicular urinary total damages. The elevated hydrocarbon content in the Ogoni
subjects is a positive deleterious finding.
Benzene that appears in the environmental organic compound called
Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) components of TPH which is in all the water can be
accumulated to potentially hazardous levels in fish and invertebrates and pose
serious health risks to humans that consumes such fish(es) specifically in the
Ogoni (Bodo) case. I have come to realise that virtually most of our patients
presented with infertility who come from the oil-producing regions have several
toxins and heavy metal overload, such that even the best of IVF with good
embryos would not yield a positive result unless they go through a Mayr therapy
detoxification process. And how many can afford this, even when the facilities
are not here but only abroad.
Many other internationals including the UNEP scientific
and technical teams have confirmed and dragged the Nigeria Federal Government
and Shell to the point where they are politicizing it till date. The Calls by
Niger Deltans for clean-up fall on nepotistic and ethno conscious directors’
ears who only see it as another opportunity to employ more of their sons and
daughters, hence, you hear all kinds of names with employees from Hausa and Yoruba
land capped with a political appointee from the Niger Delta who is only ready
to answer yes to Fulani/Yoruba Cabals or leave the stage. We have all kinds of
committees and commissions set up once there is a cry from here for
development. In other places in the north when there is an incidence, money in
billions and trillions are moved to their state governors for immediate
intervention. The excess which is naturally available is always corruptly
embezzled by such Governors as they have no DNA for development but destruction.
We are watching HYPREP, UN is Watching OGONI, Niger Delta and the rest of
Biafra land. Clement Faah will not die in vain. He revealed a truth that has
been scientifically proven to be correct several years after he was gruesomely
murdered by the agents of Shell and Fulani Cabals in Ogoni. The politics of the
political parties is the least problem of Biafra land. The oil politics is the
superior politics and our people have been so polluted that they cannot even
see beyond their nose and protect their best brains, rather they kill their own
due to plates of porridge of flimsy political promises that are non-existent
lies from the pit of hell.
