Claims for compensation by 11,000 or more individual inhabitants of an area in the Niger Delta known broadly as the Bodo Community. There are a large number of claims which have been brought together in group litigation, and the matter was transferred to the TCC last year. These claims are for damages and compensation, both at ‘common law’, and I use that term in parenthesis at this stage, and also under statute in Nigeria.
