Ogoni: A pathetic
story of a people
The story of the Ogoni is not new. A well known and
established case of state repression against civil rights. A rather pathetic
story of a people repressed by their own government, dehumanized by those who
should protect them, a repression backed by the unethical global giant - The
Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria, an affiliate of Shell
International. As lethal and ruthless as the Ogoni repression has been, the
good news is that the people have resolved to sustain it for the good of all.
It is a resolve to live and not give up to the desires of the Nigerian
oppressors who seek to kill and cover up their evil against the Ogoni.
