Amnesty International (AI) has urged the incoming administration in Nigeria to ensure that Shell’s planned divestment of its operations in the Niger Delta, does not worsen human rights violations in the region. The global advocacy organisation said the government should monitor and require Shell to provide a full assessment report of existing pollution in the area, ensure the company has provided satisfactory remediation for any damage, and that concerns by residents are fully appraised and addressed, as a condition for sale.
