Our able body head of Community Relations/Marine Operations, the person of His Royal Majesty, Chief Amakiri Ekine has been on ground for this specific community relations task. The standard is to invite which ever community that is involved in our project execution to our Brass Office for relevant discussions and raising of Memorandum Of Understanding between Octopus Clan (Nig.) Ltd. and the community/communities involved.
The memorandum of understanding shall entail details like-settlement of entire community, community development committee, youths and council of chiefs in terms of payments, working chances, payoff and other incentives. This MOU is to be signed and witnessed by NAOC PAF Department as we have been doing it.
This is to ensure that a conducive working atmosphere is reached.
Stake holders situation, which has been a paramount problem in the Niger Delta, is also another big task which Octopus has been able to handle hence we are the swamp giants. This you can confirm from our past records of being able to handle various leak repairs in swamp area considering the high incidence of militancy in the Niger Delta region.
