WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT
The Niger Delta region of Nigeria occupies a significant part of the Gulf
of Guinea in West Africa and is of growing strategic interest to the global
economy. The region not only produces immense oil wealth and has become the
engine of Nigeria s sustainable development; it also presents a paradox, because
the vast oil revenues have barely made an impact on the regions own pervasive
local poverty.
Nigeria stands as the fifth-largest supplier of oil to the United States, with over
35
billion barrels of proven reserves. The shorter distances American tankers
must travel to pick up crude that is both lighter and sweeter than the Middle-
east variety has moved U.S. energy officials to stake that the Gulf of Guinea will
provide a quarter of U.S. crude by
2010.
This would place the region in front of
Saudi Arabia as a leading oil supplier.
Thus any instability in the region that threatens production drives up crude oil
prices, which has a ripple effect on the global economy dominated by the US.
Peace in the region is thus essential and the path to sustainable peace is through
generating wealth and prosperity for its peoples.
This book offers ways to harness the huge resources of the region and transform
it into a modern integrated
econom}
that will raise the level of
prosperit}
for its
peoples as well as contribute Go sustainable peace.
But also of equal importance tor lasting prosperity, the book tackles issues of
conflict management,
securit} ,
human rights and governance.
Africa has been described as the last great investment frontier and the Niger Delta
has boundless opportunities for foreign investment.
