Description

In recent years, local guerillas in balaclavas and speed boats, armed with enormous rounds of ammunition, have taken on the oil companies. They demand the right to live in their own clean and unpolluted land, and that the delta is restored. These dramatic images document for the first time the extent of the enviromental damage and the daily conditions people there are forced to live under, revealing not only to the world, but also to Nigeria itself, what exactly is happening to their country, where everything is being taken from this land - and nothing is being given back to the people.
