This is a study in the field of postcolonial ecoliterature and criticism which is aimed at investigating how the exploitation of humans affect or translate to the exploitation of the nonhumans especially in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. To aid this study, concepts from Murray Bookchin’s social ecology theory shall be used as analytical framework. The concepts that will be applied here include: nature and society; social hierarchy and domination; and the idea of dominating nature. The study shall therefore analyse Kaine Agary’s (2006) Yellow Yellow in line with these concepts so as to ascertain how the exploitation of humans translate to or encourages the exploitation of non-humans like the land, air, water and animals of the Niger Delta region.
