Reps Summon NNPC 18 Operating Companies Over Pollution in Rivers
The House of Representatives Committee on Environment has summoned NNPC 18 Operating companies to appear before it on March 4, 2025, following the company’s failure to honour an earlier invitation on February 18, 2025.
Chairman of the Committee, Rep. Julius Pondi, who read the summon on Tuesday in Abuja, stated that the summons was prompted by a petition from stakeholders over environmental damage linked to oil drilling activities in Buguma and Degema, Rivers State.
The lawmakers had earlier received complaints against NNPC 18 Operating companies regarding a fire outbreak and oil spill in Buguma, Degema Local Government Area.
The Committee also invited key stakeholders, including the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC), to discuss grievances raised by the Bukuma community.
The community alleged that NNPC has failed to implement a 2021 court ruling that mandated the grouping of oil-producing communities into clusters for development.
The Committee aims to hear from all parties involved and take necessary measures to address environmental concerns and the alleged neglect of affected communities.
