Supermajor Shell in dialogue with communities to halt planned disruption of operations –Spokesman | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News ⚠️
The four communities constituting the Kolo-Creek Cluster Development Board in the Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa on March 8 threatened to ground operations at Shell’s oilfields over the failure to provide them with electricity.
The Bayelsa government which has been mediating in the dispute following a protest in December 2021, however, urged the people to exercise restraint. Adande said: “The Bayelsa State Government and SPDC are working with the beneficiary communities to deliver the backup electricity project based on a rescheduled delivery timeline.”
They demanded the immediate operationalisation of the 2.5 MVA generator installed by Morpol Engineering Services Limited and the award of contract for the Oruma high tension line.
