Shell Oil and the Exploitation of Nigeria

Exploitation of Nigeria by Shell Oil and Nigeria has long been a country with political chaos. When it was regarded as a protected territory, the country was founded under British colonial rule in 1914. It was not until 1960 that Nigeria became independent from England. One political issue in Nigeria is that there are over 300 different ethnic groups. The biggest three are Hausa-Fulani, Igbo, Yoruba. When Nigeria became independent it was divided into three states, each under the control of a major ethnic group.

Shell Nigeria is one of Shell 's largest oil producing countries. Through 80% of the oil development in Nigeria Nigeria Delta in Nigeria, Shell can be said to be mining and using the rest of this resource. Many minority ethnic groups including Ogoni live in Delta, all of which are used by multinational oil companies such as Shell. Shell provides over 50% of income and allows Nigerian dictatorship to take power. In 1995, when the Nigerian government beat the nine environmental activists against the exploitation of Shell and the Government of Nigeria, it felt boycott and global anger took place. The court that determines these crimes is part of a joint effort between the Government and Shell to suppress the growing environmental justice, human rights, and economic justice movements of the people of Ogoni. Shell brings extreme and irrevocable environmental and social damage to Ogunnilan

• Shell started oil mining in Africa in the 1950s. Shell started oil production in Nigeria in 1958. Shell has had a tremendous influence in Nigeria and has been accused of committing a serious crime in this country. Shell also operates in Algeria, Cameroon, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Libya, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa and Tunisia. • The Afghanistan War of the Soviet Union in 1979-1989 was a surrogate war in the Cold War era involving the Soviet Union and supported the guerrilla movement against the Afghan Marxist government's jihadist forces in Afghanistan. Mujahedeen received secret support from the United States and other countries. Thousands of people were murdered and injured in the Soviet Union. And they were trapped in a war that they could not win. It ruins the Afghan government and the infrastructure

This is a good example of the real situation in Nigeria. US oil company «Shell» started oil exploration in Niger Delta in 1956. It operates according to the highest international standards. In short, the positive impact of Nigeria 's globalization is helping Nigeria grow its economy through oil production and export. On the other hand, these economic growth will cause more damage to the environment, especially if the government does not regard it as a serious problem. From examples of shell companies, you can clearly see the impact of globalization on the Nigerian environment. In addition, the future of Nigeria is threatened by environmental pollution that leads to drought and accidental death.
