Nigeria Workers: Shell To Face Showdown

Twelve Nigerian communities of Niger Delta region have given Royal Dutch/Shell Group up to Dec. 31 to start work on an abandoned road or face a showdown.

Danfebo Kieriseiye Derri, chairman of the Otuegila-Nembe road project forum steering committee, said that the affected communities had resolved that if Shell's Nigerian subsidiary, SPDC, failed to start work on the road, they would stop the company's operations in the area.

SPDC accounts for about half of Nigeria's oil production, which currently stands at 2.5 million barrels of crude per day. The company conducted preliminary studies on the 42 km Otuegila-Nembe road, including environmental impact assessment since 2001, but later abandoned the project.
