  ABSTRACT: This paper examines writers from the Niger Delta’s responses to the problems caused by humans’ activities to the region’s natural environment. It identifies some underhand efforts of local individuals and foreign multinationals respectively in extracting its natural resources while also locating interconnections in the actions of both that have glocal implications and continue to pose great danger to environmental sustainability. For textual illustrations, the paper draws on several literary reconfigurations of this conundrum even as it applauds the different writers’ activism and advocacy for environmental resuscitation.
