"Mr President, what is happening in Nigeria, the instability, the violence, the extremism, and now the killing of two Western citizens, is a strong twofold warning: as regards communication between European Union countries and the spread of religious violence on the African continent. I believe that we need to become more aware of this region, where terrorist groups coordinated by al-Qaeda are operating. A more serious concern for Nigeria as a whole is also required. In Africa's most populated country, 80% of its 170 million inhabitants are struggling in misery and poverty, although the country itself is not poor. Nigeria is the ninth largest oil exporter in the world but, at the same time, it is one of the most corrupt and poorly positioned countries in the UN human development index classification. Therefore, I think that we need to go beyond the minimal stage of monitoring elections in African countries, otherwise, poor governance, poverty and corruption will continue to fuel instability and violence."@en1
