维瓦诉壳牌公司案

在基奥贝勒诉讼案之前,1996年,肯∙维瓦(Ken Wiwa)(在1995年与巴瑞恩∙基奥贝勒一起被处决的已故奥戈尼族活动人士肯∙萨罗-维瓦之子)与其他MOSOP成员也曾就相关案由提起诉讼。维瓦诉讼案的被告公司与基奥贝勒案相同。该案诉称,为了镇压MOSOP组织的活动,尼日利亚军政府和安全部队折磨和杀戮该组织的成员,犯下了违背人权的罪行,而荷兰皇家壳牌公司则合谋参与了这些侵犯行为。原告方赢了多项预审裁决 ,包括法庭否决了被告方提出驳回起诉的申请。

2009年6月初,原被告双方宣布达成1550万美元的和解协议。根据和解协议,十名原告将获得补偿,被告也将替原告支付一部分诉讼费用。此外,还将设立 Kiisi 基金,旨在造福奥戈尼族,由独立董事管理。基金将为奥戈尼族的教育、妇女项目、成人扫盲、小型企业等提供资金支持。
