And this has been attributed to the posture of some members of the Bodo community whose action has been blamed for the delay in addressing the issues.
It is believed that the manner in which previous spills were handled in the past created distrust among members of the community.
Recently, some youths have also demanded that 40 million naira compensation be paid to members of the community by Shell Development Company.
But the Gokana council chairman Confidence Deko while appealing to the community to allow the issues to be addressed, assured them that he is making efforts to ensure that the operators of the pipeline take necessary actions.
