💨 Abstract

An ongoing oil spill and fire at a wellhead in Nigeria's Rivers state, attributed to sabotage by oil thieves, has persisted for four weeks, causing widespread pollution and environmental damage. Authorities have not taken immediate action to halt the spill, leading to concern among rights groups. The state oil firm, NNPC Ltd, is combating the fire and aims to reduce the financial impact of the incident.
