Based on the conclusion, we recommend that management of oil companies should not just assume that they will always achieve their goals and objectives without identifying and engaging the right stakeholders of these host oil communities if the oil companies indulge in such assumptions crisis will continue to erupt. Furthermore, host communities should on their parts help the organization by providing the right persons that can represents the collective interest of the entire host communities as it is not appropriate for the organization to engage every person that showcase him herself as the community representative. These will not only check fraud and dubious persons from cultivating discord among the host communities and the oil companies but it will rather help their collective effort by promoting a peaceful coexistence.
