Yenagoa — The Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) has condemned and described as insensitive and provocative the plan by Anglo-Dutch multinational oil company, Shell to move its corporate headquarters from Port Harcourt, in the Niger Delta region to Lagos, south west Nigeria.
The body warned the oil giant to halt what they described as its evil and anti-Niger Delta plan or be ready to completely move out of its offshore oil platforms located in EIA and Bonga.
A statement by IYC spokesman, Barrister Eric Omare, said it was disheartening that while critical stakeholders are making frantic efforts to restore peace to the volatile region, the company was making plans to worsen the security situation.
Industry watchers said the implication of Shell relocating its corporate headquarters from the Niger Delta to Lagos was enormous as the Niger Delta region would lose all the economic and other associated benefits that come with having a corporate headquarters in the region.
Not only that the Niger Delta states would not only lose revenue but even businessmen doing business with Shell had to move from the region to Lagos with the attendant negative economic effects.
Bayelsa State chapter Chairman of the Civil Liberty Organization (CLO), Nengi James, said such plan by the oil company would have a far reaching implication in the economic fortune, warning that the region will not tolerate it.
He said such move would be a slap on the Niger Delta people, especially doing at a time the people are calling on oil companies whose headquarters are elsewhere to come back to the region.
“We are calling on the Federal Government and the oil company to desist from such plan because it will engineer and re-create another conflict which the federal government cannot manage.
“As far as I know Shell is still running its operations in the Niger Delta they are still running their oil facilities in the Niger Delta, either in the sea or ocean which are very close to the jetties of the host communities, they are also running their gas plant in Bonny.
“So if they know what they are doing, the social-economic effects of what they want to do, I think it will be very grievous and Niger Deltans will not take it lightly.” IYC said the move by Shell was not only insensitive but capable of escalating the already volatile security situation in the Niger Delta region.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
