Greetings from Saskatchewan, Canada. My name is Barikor Menegbo and I am the coordinator of the Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People (MOSOP) in Canada. I am writing today to introduce myself and ask for help with the Ogoni people in Nigeria. Ogoni land in Nigeria has been devastated by the multinational oil giant Shell along with the Nigerian government. Since 1993, more than 5000 Ogoni people have been killed and the land of oil has been devastated. The Ogoni people are facing grief and hardship because they are denied the guarantee of human rights as well as being refused any benefits from the sale of the oil. Shell has carted away over $30 billion (US) from Ogoni land. The oil company and the government get rich from our land while the inhabitants stay impoverished. We believe that Shell and the Nigerian government stop immediately the current human rights abuses in Ogoni land, killing of Ogoni people, destruction of Ogoni villages and properties and illegal claiming of Ogoni land. They should urgently look into the Ogoni Bill of Rights. I would appreciate any help you can give to further bring to light the problems of the Ogoni people. As well, if you could furnish any websites or contacts of people who could help us with our mission, your help would be greatly appreciated.. Please contact me by phone or by email. Thanks for your help. Barikor Menegbo Coordinator of MOSOP in Canada teegua@cableregina.com 306-924-4382
