Oil leaks in Gulf of Mexico and Niger Delta: Double standard world racism http://www.pr-inside.com/oil-leaks-in-gulf-of-mexico-r1923671.htm

Few people know that Africa, specifically Nigeria, is the number one supplier of excellent fine crude oil to the USA. Nigeria has over 600 oilfields which produce 40% of the total oil imports of Washington D.C. One would imagine that the White House would know what is happening in Black Africa, in the Niger Delta where the black gold freely flows; that this delta is the world capital of oil leaks, spills, multinational criminality and pollution of Mother Nature, of Africa.

As was the case of the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico, why are President Barack Obana and Shell not doing everything possible to halt this tragedy?Why have Nigerian leaders ignored this environmental catastrophe for decades?What are the United Nations, NEPAD and African Unity worth at all as far as Africa in oil agony is concerned?Why do United States Africom and USAID not aid the oil workers to clear up the disastrous corporate mess?
