The dumping had a devastating effect on the people of Abidjan – in the next six months tens of thousands streamed into its hospitals and health centres suffering from symptoms like breathing difficulties, vomiting, headaches, weeping eyes, nosebleeds and skin lesions...The government built the health centre in Djibi in recognition of the significant impact of the dumping on the village. One doctor...said he thought it “likely that the entire population of that village were victims of the waste”...As we mark the 10^th anniversary of the dumping, Djibi’s health centre symbolises the toxic legacy of this disaster. The clinic felt abandoned...Villagers told us it has no money to buy medication...Victims told us that they feel similarly abandoned. While Trafigura provided some compensation, many victims have not received any compensation. No one has ever checked-up on their health or assessed the potential long-term risks of the chemicals in the waste. Most still don’t know what was in the waste – to this day Trafigura has never disclosed the exact contents of the waste and its potential impacts. Abidjan residents believe the dumpsites have not been fully cleaned-up because they can still smell the waste when it rains heavily...At the government’s request and cost, the United Nations Environment Programme recently finished checking if all the dumpsites had been fully decontaminated...The government has also asked a local laboratory to check the health of all victims in Djibi village. But governments can and need to do more to support and reassure the victims – including finally compelling Trafigura to disclose the exact contents of the waste, checking the health of all people exposed to the waste and assessing and disclosing the potential long-term health and environmental risks.
