"Mr President, at the risk of being unoriginal, allow me to say that the violence and, indeed, the barbarianism that is unfortunately commonplace in Nigeria, have found a very fertile breeding ground for their development there. Nigeria is still incapable of fulfilling its sovereign functions, including, in particular, the protection of its citizens. Its authority is regularly undermined by factions acting either in the name of Islamic fundamentalism or violence against religious and ethnic minorities. However, we must also remember that Nigeria is not a state that is lacking in resources. These resources, particularly in terms of oil, do little, if anything, to alleviate the needs of the population. The measures approved by the Commission to remedy the instability in the Niger Delta, to work towards improving governance, to provide support for anti-corruption measures and so on, are, of course, relevant and useful, but responsibility lies, first and foremost, with the Nigerian authorities."@en1
