O knihe
The Niger Delta people's agitation is presupposed on the belief that injustice has been done. There seems to be a policy of exclusion of the people, by the State and the Oil Companies. In other words, justice, equity and fairness seem to have been denied. Regrettably, oil deposit that ought to a blessing has become an imprecation. But, what is Resource Control all about? What do the Niger Delta people want? Why are they so sore? And, can human warfare, which is inherently defiling, ever bring about their much sort after justice? What is the way out of the crisis? Can we draw a Biblical paradigm? This work, therefore, is aimed at looking at the Niger Delta people and the issue of resource control objectively and suggests, theologically, a biblical solution. The researcher highlights the moral issues involved in the Niger Delta crisis and points out a biblical pattern of how "risk bearers" can adequately, justly and equitably be compensated. The current high level of insurgency and violence in the Niger Delta makes this book imperative. The Researcher believes that there is need to listen to ourselves and objectively point out our moral defaults. The best time to do this is now.
