The communities youths and women stormed the firm in protest weekend with placards screaming, “Geo Seismic Survey lacks respect for local content”, “We seek Government, Civil Rights Society Intervention”, and “We prefer Mutual Dialogue to Violence”. Youth Leader of Ikot Akan community, Imo Usen, sharing their grievances during the protest, said, “We have through our lawyers written to the management of Geoseimic Survey Ltd to address the havoc caused by their activities in our community but they paid deaf ears.
