These problems stem from the political bias in the country which favours the north over the south and delta regions where the Ogoni tribes live.A few years back a former UK govt. employee revealed that before leaving as the colonial power the UK govt. set up the UK friendly party to continue almost unopposed.Shell represents the kernal of Anglo/Dutch colonial power central to the Bilderberg Group Global corporate elitists.Netherlands royalty are major shareholders. Compensation should have been $100 million.
