 Niger Delta leaders and prominent groups from the region have expressed mixed reactions following the passage of the Petroleum Industry Bill by the National Assembly. While some commend the Night National Assembly for passing the bill after about 20 years in limbo, other stakeholders rejected a 3% of oil company's profit allocated to host communities by the lawmakers. A retired Deputy Inspector General of Police, DIG and Starwatt of the All Progressive Congress, Udum Udo-Equodum argued that the National Assembly members from the region did not do enough to ensure a better package for host communities in the bill. He insisted that the 3% allotted to host communities be reviewed upwards for the sake of peace and justice.
