Why is it important?
Most environmental research in the Niger Delta Region have been on petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals. Our findings showed that there are other pollutants especially organic pollutants such as PCBs that should be of grave concern in the region
Perspectives
Writing this article was a great pleasure. I have been motivated to focus on other organic pollutants in the region especially the emerging pollutants. I am excited about my ongoing research in the area and I would not mind having you to collaborate with me.
