[s][size=14pt]What is Economic terrorism?[/size]

The term economic terrorism or financial terrorism is strictly defined to indicate an attempt at economic destabilization by a group. Economic terrorism is defined in the following terms:

Contrary to "economic warfare" which is undertaken by states against other states, "economic terrorism" would be undertaken by transnational or non-state actors. This could entail varied, coordinated and sophisticated or massive destabilizing actions in order to disrupt the economic and financial stability of a state, a group of states or a society (such as market oriented western societies or economies) or a trading exchange for ideological, monetary or religious motives.

These actions, if undertaken, may be violent or not. They could have either immediate effects or carry psychological effects which in turn have economic consequences

[size=14pt]Impacts of Econmic Terrorism on Supply Chains[/size]

Terroristic attacks against ports and land borders, crude and gas pipelines cause extra measures to be implemented to ensure the safe arrival of the product. These measures force the cost of exporting and importing goods to increase. Emerging economies are the most affected, because the slowing of exports and imports will affect the country’s ability to combat poverty. An increase in poverty can cause revolts among the population and possible political destabilization, forcing an even greater increase in poverty.

[size=14pt]Government Response [/size]

To counter piracy, and pipeline vadalism, governments and maritime industries must take preventative measures.

The United States Maritime Administration says “These actions may include a larger military presence in high-risk areas, rerouting ships to bypass the Gulf of Aden, paying higher insurance premiums, hiring private security guards, and installing non-lethal deterrent equipment.” The cost of these preventative measures is passed on to consumers and tax payers, ultimately directing money away from other areas of the economy

[size=14pt]The Niger Delta Avengers[/size]

In relation to the above on Econmic Terrorism, it is point blank clear that the Niger Delta Avengers are Economic terrorists.
It is not abnormal to see heavy military presense in high-risk areas that inhabits key Economic facilities as these are areas proned to attacks by saboteurs.

It should also be noted that these group have also engaged security agents including armed soldiers killing some of them.
It is therefore imperative that communities habouring these criminals give them up willingly or by force. No group will be allowed to hold the Federal Reuplic of Nigeria to Rasome.

[size=14pt]Dialogue Option[/size]

Some group of individuals mistake dialogue for cowardice, but this is an ignorant assertion. While the Federal government is opened for negotiations, military operations can keep going on except there is a "cease fire agreement" between both aggrieved parties. A Cease fire agreement in this case will mean the militants stop bombing pipelines while the military step down its operations against them. Even countries at war negotiate while bombings are going on.
The FG have shown interests in dialogue, hopefully there will be a truce soon.

[size=14pt] Hypocrisy[/size]

It is hypocrisy to scream foul when the government open negotiations with BokoHaram while u turn around and attack same Government, urging them to negotiate with the Avengers and step down its military operations. A TERRORIST IS A TERRORIST irrespective of their modus operandi. Soldiers killed by the Avengers are also human beings that have families and not demi gods.

Some Northeners attacked the government against military operations in the North East in the early days of BokoHaram, which led to a step down on military operations against BH. Today BokoHaram have grown to be a monster prompting the same Northeners that were attacking the government to mobilise and now have the civilian JTF working hand in hand with the Federal Forces to root out these terrorists out.

The government can therefore not make the same costly mistake. The community leaders and youths where these criminals operates should work hand in hand with security forces to root out them out.

To keep Nigeria one is a task that must be done!

God bless the Nigeria

God bless Niger Delta[/s]

PoliticsAPC Chieftains Come Out For Judge Over Buhari’s Certificate Ruling by DickDastardly(op): 12:38pm On May 30, 2016
A judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Ad­emola Adeniyi, is under fire from chieftains of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for endorsing a suit challenging President Muhammadu Buhari’s eligibility to contest the 2015 presidential election.
Justice Adeniyi had last Thursday dismissed a preliminary objection filed by President Buhari against a suit by an Abuja based lawyer, Mr. Nnamdi Nwokocha Ahaiiwe, challenging his (Buhari’s) eligibility to contest the presidential election on the ground that he does not have a school certificate, the basic educational qualification set out by the Constitution for a candidate seeking to run for the office of President.
Ahaiiwe had joined the APC as well as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as defendants in the suit which was filed in February 2015.
Ruling on the case, Justice Adeniyi, grandson of the first indigenous Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Adetokunbo Ademola, dismissed all applications by the defendant as lacking in merit, maintaining that the suit filed by Ahaiiwe was as competent as the service on Buhari and APC.
A top APC chieftain described the judge’s ruling as “a calculated attempt to embarrass President Buhari and the APC.”
He noted that: “We in APC find the ruling more embarrassing, considering that it came three days to our first anniversary in office,” adding that, “we strongly suspect that the said judge is working for the opposition (Peoples Democratic Party, PDP).”
Another APC chieftain blamed the President’s team of lawyers for “treating the matter with levity, having won the elections,” warning that such a suit was capable of throwing up unpleasant surprises for his party.
He said: “We are not lawyers and are therefore not in a position to know what is going on in the courts. I heard that our team of lawyers abandoned the matter, having not been paid by those who felt that the election had been won and lost. If we had a proactive Attorney-General of the Federation, he ought to have followed up and avoided this em­barrassment. It is even more embarrassing if the courts establish that President Buhari, who has been fighting corruption, has no school certificate.”
He continued: “This was the same way they assured us of victory in the governorship elections in Rivers, Delta and Akwa Ibom States. We all know that PDP end­ed up shocking us by snatching those prized states from us at the Supreme Court.
“The ruling by the Honourable Justice Adeniyi is too cold for comfort. Don’t forget that he is from the same state with the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. The sooner we deal with the matter, the better for us because the con­sequences will be too dire for us as we don’t know the interests at play here,” the party chieftain warned.
Justice Ademola adjourned the case till June 16, 2016 for hearing of the substantive originating summons to determine whether the President’s educational qual­ification meets the minimum standards required by the 1999 Constitution.
