the rivers state internal security task force is handling the security
in the oil regions of nigeria with measures of brutality
and guns financed with the money of western oil companies,
who operate joint ventures with the nigerian government
enriching a small minority,
while the vast majority becomes increasingly impoverished
and no one can deny that severe human rights violations
have been committed in relation to the oil exploration
detentions, executions, restrictions on the rights of freedom of expression (a**ociation and a**embly)
and no excuse can ever be enough for the genocide of the ogoni people
how quickly truth can be silenced,
news rearranged and adjusted when the price is right.
and the price is always right
when economical profit is valued higher than human life
