WARRI- Some riverine communities under the umbrella of Host Communities of Nigeria Oil & Gas have shut down the Edjeba-Warri Office of the Heritage Operational Energy Services Limited OML30 Bloc for deploying Naval House Boats to their communities without their knowledge.

The Communities are also protesting the Company’s failure to provide scholarships for indigent students as well as make payments for the ones awarded before 2016 when it stopped finally.
The Financial Secretary of Oteghele Community in Warri South Local Government Area, Mr. Benike Geoffrey claimed that Heritage Operational Energy Services Limited OML30 Bloc brought in house boats into the Community unknown to them.

Geoffrey said the Company allegedly gave contract supply jobs in the house boat to the Navy without considering the indigenous contractors.

He noted that the Communities approached the Company about the development but they were told that the house boat business is between the company and the Navy.
