Nigeria: “Highway going to nowhere…”

Daniel Wegwa, elder in the village of Mbodo Aluu says: You ask me what we’ve gotten from all the oil here in Aluu? I tell you: nothing. We know that the pumping station that the oil company has on our land, which they call Agbada 1, pumps 30,000 barrels a day. But the oil company uses our land and gives us nothing for it; and the government gives us nothing either.
