Despite the valuable crude oil that flows from the ground beneath their feet, the people of the Niger Delta wage a conflicted daily struggle to survive. With the end of the fossil fuel age on the horizon, Pantheras delves into the complexity of Nigeria’s smuggling ideologies and clandestine economies, exploring the neoliberal risks of neocolonialism.
The project was self-initiated.
