African Governance and Development
“Sabella Ogbobode Abidde has written an illuminating and insider account of the history of the Niger
Delta as a vital economic region of Nigeria and yet the hotbed of the country and one of the least developed
oil-producing areas of the world. Raising critical questions on the adequacy and effectiveness of measures,
including amnesty programs, adopted by successive Nigerian governments, oil companies, the European
Union, and the United States to address the crisis of underdevelopment and insecurity in the Niger Delta,
Abidde sheds penetrating light on the complex layers of power players and their contributions to the
state of affairs in the region. The power relations between the Niger Delta elite—politicians, chiefs, and
leaders of the ethnonationalist and militia groups who saw amnesty and other programs as a conduit for
self-enrichment and aggrandizement and the masses, particularly the restive youth, who regarded them
as ineffective bottomless welfare systems—are ably presented. This is a valuable addition to the growing
scholarly literature on the politics of oil and resource allocation in Nigeria and Africa.”
—GLORIA CHlKli, University of Maryland
“This very well-researched book effectively places the militancy, amnesty, and postamnesty environment
in the Niger Delta within its historical and contemporary contexts while adroitly demonstrating the
complex national and international dimensions of the Niger Delta crisis. The interviews with principal
personalities—particularly Henry Okah and Jomo Gbomo—involved in the Niger Delta conflict provide
fresh and illuminating insights into the dynamics and intricacies of the conflict and the amnesty and
postamnesty environment. A major and original work that is invaluable for those who want to understand
the intricacies of the Niger Delta conflict, as well as the strategies for fostering sustainable peace and
development in the region.” —Jl* RHMIAH D1BUA, Morgan State University
“Sabella Ogbobode Abidde has presented an exposé in Nigeria's Niger Delta of the political, social, and
economic crises arising from oil exploration and exploitation in Nigeria’s economic basket, the Niger Delta.
This is an indictment of the Nigerian political elites who, through corrupt practices, have brought the
country to its knees and created environmental catastrophe and an economic, social, and political quagmire
for millions of Nigerians. This is a magisterial study.”
—ONA1WU W. OGROMO, Western Michigan University
Nigeria's Niger Delta: Militancy, Amnesty, and the Postamnesty Environment examines the factors
contributing to the Niger Delta crisis and explains why, in spite of the billions of dollars devoted to the
presidential amnesty program, peace has eluded the region. It argues that the economic development of the
region and the fundamental restructuring of the country are central to securing peace and preventing the
collapse of the state.
