Abstract: This paper aims to discuss the challenges in the Niger Delta by using a political ecology approach. The paper observes that the violence and criminality in the Niger Delta region is a product of their struggle for survival and preservation of their environment. The paper concluded by recommending that economic and environmental exploitation is comprehensively transformed to an all-embracing and transparent stakeholders' participation in development decisions in the Niger Delta region.
