Right. It's naive to think that the parent company can dictate and control everything from their subsidiaries. A pipe-dream, in fact. But it's the norm to slam fossil fuel companies and rich Western companies, so this is what to expect these days. Not trying to play defense for a fossil fuel company, but it's not certain that this ruling was appropriate. I'd like to know more info.

I wonder if the Nigerian farmers realizes the significance of this ruling. Not trying to be condescending, but we know that the education level and literacy rate seen by farmers isn't on top.

The compensations by a European country and company after this sort of historical ruling will likely pull up farmers in Africa from poverty to a situation of affluent success lol Settlements and compensation in these sort of cases doesn't tend to be measly.
