The worst scenario, was a case of a man from River state, one Dr Mpi former ODM in NAOC who advised Nigeria Agip oil company that a 15million dollars budget meant for CSR shld be utilized for its purposes, in developing the region, but the management of NAOC transfered him out of the CSR department and forcefully retired him for his patriotic advise for the development of the region. Agi cried and described NAOC as MAFIA group, buttressing that NAOAC MAFIA approach will not stand any more in Nigeria. Mr Agi said his family alone Umu Aye Family gave Total E&P Nig Ltd over 200 hectars of land, all efforts to enter into agreement over the land grabbing, proved abortive in 2006. He said recently there were cases of deaths in Ogba Egbema Ndoni Local Govt Area in Rivers State, in NAOC premises in Omoku due to peaceful demand of accurate and full MOU Implementations, but the peaceful protesters lost their lives based on the orders of shoot aside.

He further said that the IOCs usually brag that Nigerian judiciary is in their Palm. That Nigerian judiciary only needs money for the IOCs to secure a restraining orders against any arms of government trying to investigate their activities in Nigeria.

According to Agi,”From our consultation visits, we discovered that all the IOCs do not have land Acquisition agreement either on sell or leasing with host Families and Communities.”

“These IOCs do not pay tenancy rents annually, they are owing the host families Communities tenancy rents for over five (5) decayeds. Most of the IOCs do not have MOU with her host Communities from inception of their oil exploration in the region.” The coordinator said when he saw Sterling Exploration and Production sites in Delta State, he described the company as Advanced Bonkery Firm.

On the area of revalidation of perimeter survey on all
(1) Flow Stations
(2) Pipe lines
(3) Oil well heads
(4) Based camps etc

Agi said it is necessary and urgent to ascertain the hectares of lands acquired by all the IOCs, as it will enhance the Investigations. The coordinator said a letter will be dispatched soon to all IOCs for the revalidation perimeter survey exercise to kick off by February in the region, and i will submit the report to the Federal Ministry of Justice. It is extremely ridiculous that all the IOCs do not have Certificate of Occupancy, or Right of Ownership, blaming the state governments over these developments bcoz these IOCs acquires these lands with state government political machineries.
