This paper examined the critical engagement of the major powers in the identification and exploitation of natural and human resources in the strategically
located Gulf of Guinea, in Africa. For multifarious reasons, this intervention has produced spheres of hegemonic influence and neo-colonial clashes of
various kinds. The war of words and other unorthodox practices initiated by these powers and supported by some African surrogates has unleashed a
growing mobilisation of civil society organisations.
