Nigeria is the main oil producer and exporter in West Africa, a country with a series of social, religious, economic and political conflicts. The impact of the oil industry has affected all aspects of life, hindering the processes of consolidation of democracy in the post-colonial state. With the presence of foreign capital and the economic dependence on hydrocarbons, a series of responses have been shaped by civil society, which resists not participating in the profits of this company. The most prolific fields are found around the Niger Delta, where the damage caused by foreign transnationals in the hydrocarbon sector can be observed.
