ah. meanwhile, british oil and gas giant shell is trying to avoid scrutiny over its oil spills, which have been polluting, nigeria for years. that's according to lawyers representing nigerians who are seeking damages from the company in the high court of london. in february, more than 13000 residents of the niger river delta filed a lawsuit against a british firm. the claim says that oil spills caused by shells, operations in nigeria have harmed local wildlife contaminated drinking water and destroyed farm lands shall ask the high court to start the trial next year. claiming parts of the case were brought to lay a move which lawyers representing the nigerians called an attempt to shield shall and avoid responsibility. the fuel company denied the allegations, claiming 3rd parties are to blame for the environmental damage. we believe litigation this little to address the real problem and the niger delta oil spills

you to theft. legal fighting and sabotage with which is b. c is constantly faced and which calls the most environmental damage that you're an economist kelvin emanuel says, the environmental problems caused by oil spills let to dire consequences for the locals. one of them being a spike in youth crime rates. most of the problems that show and most of the oil and the job, why an upstream and danger as hardware years as being because you have weekly solution, pollution, damages, gas, or oil damages or what you're unable to survive. that is what has led to what they called me dancing, united delta and the speed of can not gains mean under build. i because most of the you to grow up to find out not then i will to found and a will to fish. most of them i like because the companies on the government as no but that in to live in or engaging in the corporate social responsibility to training the young people in those areas are you had like

a blow back them. so fair and violence. i mean, not to justify, because again, they just came on for young people going into, i mean, young kidnapping off an expert walker. what the, so this scenario that we've had these them security problems. i would have niger a home to 20000000 people, the niger delta makes up over 7 percent of nigeria landmass. it is considered one of the most polluted places on earth over a 1000 spells with approximately 4100000 liters of oil have been reported since 2011 report say these bills destroyed up to 10 percent of the local ecosystem. we spoke with a niger and environmental specialist who says that clearing up, even one spill would take almost 300 years. the faceplate happened in i go, was the old go need or you speech wish, how call and back then in the 1980s. ok,

and today's data land has not been claimed, it should take about 300 keys for the or his pillage in oakland community to be cleaned up to, to be cleaned up to tanya shell is in help in andrea at all because company think of it if she wanted to happen and you had the already complain often are you still age? are you splish clothes by communities? i'm she'll need to be held accountable for these because they keep seeing people go to the communities to vandalized. apricots is that is the ally. this is the people that this is been affected. i you, yup. and a lot of legally changed to that. and you are all in your only acting based on what you feel is necessary, just to preserve your own income and taken away that aspect of him livelihood. charles, on their well being of the people living in the community. so for me, this is not, this is i'm unacceptable. a us intelligence whistleblower claims. as the

i tried to spread its false narrative in western media to ship responsibility for the north stream pipeline blast from washington, that's according to the most recent expos, a by award winning investigative journalist seymour hersh ortiz, rachel mars that has more on the story. for remember in hearses original reporting, he attributed the attack to a clan to stein u. s. intelligence operation in cooperation with norway. and the 2 countries conveniently that have benefited from the replacement of russian gas experts to europe with their own. and her sat at the time that the biden administration and also the german chance are all i shoulds were in on the plot. and ever since hersch publish those details, we've been seeing stories in the mainstream wester media, specifically in the u. s. and germany all attributing the sabotage to unnamed undefined pro ukrainian guys who rented via the andromeda from

a polish company run by ukrainians, which they then sailed out into the black sea and planted enough explosives, which by the way they picked up just sitting there at a german port to blow through the pipeline steel in cement casing. now these press reports also underscored that no actual states were involved and especially not ukraine. these were just some, apparently random fans of ukraine were told people who just wanted to help out team kiev. and in this new piece now her, she goes into detail as to exactly why that version might make a great movie plot a parity as he calls it, but really lacks any basis in reality, hers calls in a typical cia cover story and alternative explanation. the would have been concocted from the very 1st planning days of the intelligence operation. hersch discloses for the 1st time that he was contacted by the german journalist holger

stark of deed site who published the story about the rented yacht, the andromeda, and who insisted to hers that the story came from german. federal police sources investigating the incident and not from any german or american intelligence officials. and her says that he accepted that. but he explained that he was still left with a lot of questions chuck one off for the various c i, a officials who have been supplying full new stories to the media here in the broad, in what has been a successful effort to keep the world focused on any possible suspects outside of what has the most as the most logical one, the president of the united states. all right, so why the big rush and sudden interest after all, washington officials have now taken the position that the north stream attack is a european issue that really has nothing to do with them. they have nothing to say about it really, and they've been pressed about it, but really nothing bad. they're certainly not interested in looking for the real

killers yet they were apparently very invested according to this journalist and getting to that and detonated evidence before anyone else. hersh also recalls a discussion with an intelligence expert who pointed out the devil in some of these details. like how did these pro ukrainian fans of kiev managed to actually find the pipelines which are really small in comparison to the vastness of the baltic sea? it's not like you can just dial them in on google maps and be taken to the precise location and were told that they had just to divers on the team according to this story. remember, so unless there random fans of ukraine, we're also relatives of aqua man. or somehow sprouted gills. it's not like they would have had a limitless supply of oxygen to find an implant explosives and take all the time needed to do that. here's one versus intelligence expert said about these no stretchers and

a world of professional analysts and operators every one will universally and correctly conclude from your story that the devilish ca concocted to counteract that is on its face. so ridiculous and childish that the real purpose was to reinforce the truth. well, they probably didn't actually mean to botch the cover story, as the old saying goes, never ascribed to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. the you got in president has called on african leaders to reject the promotion of homosexuality is expected to side the anti l g b t q plus bill passed by parliament last month, which criminalizes, anyone identifying as gay africa should provide the lead to save the world from this degeneration and decadence, which is really very dangerous for humanity, if people of opposite sex stop appreciate in one another, then how will the human race be propagated?

the anti gay bill allows the death penalty for people convicted for aggravated homosexuality. the bill would allow life imprisonment for those found guilty of recruiting, promoting, and funding. same activities in the country. un experts condemned the bill. what it was introduce late last month with the un high commissioner for human rights urging the you got a president knocked to sign the bill into law. the passing of this discriminatory bill, probably among the west of its kind in the world is a deeply troubling development. the anti l g b t movement gave momentum, a new god with the arrival of american evangelical missionaries in the 1980s, who encouraged homophobia in a failed attempt to combat the h. i. v. epidemic in the country. a number of you got in preachers were brought to the us for education, and upon attorney became the driving force behind the criminalization and stigmatization of the l. g. b t q, community,

a pastor and activists. as the west is attitude toward uganda, looks increasingly hypocritical. it's about africa's people resisting the agenda of the euro, american empire in pausing. l g b t on africa, we elected our members of parliament. they go to parliament, they make a law against promotional, was sexuality legitimately, as a parliament with an outstanding number. oh, bipartisan support and, and it's done. i'm, i know the other side there you have president by the yup. his spokesperson. yeah. canadian prime in that being bullied. this is bullies. you know that using the western book. you know, it's
