Is refining the oil illegal? Or stealing it from somebody else’s pipeline?
Muck raker makes it sound like the refinery is on the bank of 2 rivers.
Could that be a concern for environmentalists?
What about BLM?
Oil and gasoline theft is endemic in Nigeria.
When a mob of looters shows up, you can be sure that people are going to get blown up or incinerated.
HA! The article states “an area already BLIGHTED by oil spills” then further down in the article “spills caused by illegal tapping of Oil companies pipelines! I took the blighted sentence as a dig against those big and awful Oil companies trying to obtain a product that makes the world go “round...then to see the locals ruin it themselves.
