Nigeria is dropping a massive $1.1 billion claim against the Italian energy giant Eni over some shady oilfield business. The justice ministry of Nigeria is backing down from the claim, and it’s all happening real quick. Eni’s spokesperson is pretty chuffed about it, saying they got a letter about the whole deal and they’re happy with Nigeria’s decision. Eni is even talking about teaming up with Nigeria to turn the oilfield license into a mining one. Looks like things are looking up for them. In 2021, a court in Milan let Eni and Shell off the hook in a corruption case related to this Nigerian oilfield. So, it seems like things are finally going Eni’s way. Let’s see how this all plays out!
