I call to order this meeting of the Committee on Foreign Relations. On our agenda today is the Nigerian transition and the future of U.S. policy. I want to welcome today our witnesses and others who are here to join us, and I want to give our thanks to Senator Helms for calling this committee hearing at such an important time in U.S.-Nigeria relations and in Nigeria's transition to civilian rule. We appreciate the chairman's recognition of the importance of Nigeria to U.S. interests in Africa.

One of the most biting criticisms of American foreign policy is not so much that it is dominated by insular or isolationist thinking, but that it fails to recognize opportunities that are there before us. In the hearing's of the Africa Subcommittee this year and in this full committee hearing today, Senator Feingold and I have focused on both the crises as well as the opportunities that Africa represents to the United States. On a continent where the United States' interests are so often crisis-driven on a day-to-day basis, something I hope we as policymakers can change over time, the current transition in Nigeria stands as a stark contrast of being an opportunity-driven policy, for now at least.

Without a doubt the transition which Nigeria is now undergoing is a monumental opportunity for the United States on the African continent. To clearly recognize and take full advantage of that opportunity is something in the interest of both the U.S. Congress and the administration and a shared agenda upon which our combined efforts will be required.

In pure economic terms, Nigeria is already of great consequence to the daily lives of Americans in terms of being the source for nearly 8 percent of our crude oil imports, 8 percent, although as I talk with people around the country most people do not realize it. Compare that to Americans' understanding of the role of Kuwait's oil in our daily lives, which is less than Nigeria's, and things start to come into perspective.

Nigeria is also the single largest market on the continent of Africa, with an estimated population of 110 million, the tenth most populous on the planet. On a continent which is increasingly being viewed by many investors and financial institutions as the last frontier of direct overseas investment and a virtually untapped market of 700 million, Nigeria is understandably seen as the potential engine to power the region's growth.

For these and other reasons, Nigeria is rightfully seen as a possible linchpin for the entire continent. But the prospects for Nigeria are far from entirely sunny. It has taken a prominent place in America's security calculations because of its criminal elements and as a source and transshipment point for huge amounts of narcotics. Corruption at all levels of the private and public sector is so pervasive and so deep-rooted that it is hard to imagine that the transparency and rule of law necessary to do business and support a responsive and deliberative democracy can be achieved without near- revolutionary changes.

Nigeria is not merely a nation of vast potential wealth, as we so often hear. It is a nation of squandered and stolen wealth. A few people have benefited from that wealth, but the vast majority have suffered under poverty and often brutal military rule. They are understandably restive.

That brings us to the question of whether President Obasanjo can bring the necessary forces to bear to tear down the bases of power which have controlled Nigeria for most of its independence. The dictatorial tradition and the kleptocracy are extremely powerful and richly funded. They are formidable opponents.

Although President Obasanjo has twice proven himself willing to take on those corrupt powers, we must remember that he is still beholden to and is himself a part of an elite governing class which may see true democracy as a risk to their own bases of power or wealth. Does he share our vision of what democracy means?

The desires and thirsts of the vast majority of Nigerians will not be satisfied easily. Expectations are very high and the potential volatility in the country shows itself in significant ways even now. We see it in the Niger Delta and in the recent Hausa and Yoruba violence. Both the Secretary of State's visit to Nigeria and last week's visit of President Obasanjo are important starts to what will undoubtedly be a difficult but potentially rewarding and unusual joint effort to help form Nigeria's future. It is unusual in that Nigerians so clearly want a very active American role in that institution.

As you have indicated, Mr. Chairman, this hearing is indeed timely. The Nigeria that we know today is dramatically changed from the Nigeria we knew only a year ago. When I first became involved in the question of Nigeria, the country was a pariah, the counterargument to the claims of an African renaissance. But last week I had the pleasure, along with the chairman, of meeting the democratically elected President of Nigeria right here on Capitol Hill. I certainly do not underestimate how very far Nigeria has come and I share some genuine excitement about that.

Genuine progress is beginning in the fight against corruption and impunity, and gains are being made in Nigeria's struggle for stability and justice. I certainly believe that at this early stage of Nigeria's transition U.S. support for continued democratization, for anti-corruption efforts, for human rights, and for better civil-military relations is critically important.

Mr. Chairman, I am also concerned that the "seize the moment" mentality gripping many in Washington may not leave room for an appropriate degree of caution as we move to engage with Nigeria. A sense of urgency does not give us license to sign off on anything at all, particularly with regard to military-to-military relations. I look forward to hearing more from all the witnesses about this issue in particular.

Given the importance of the topic of this hearing to the work of the Subcommittee on Africa, and indeed to the administration's African policy, I do hope the committee will be able to have the transcript of this hearing printed as an official committee document. If there is no objection, I would like to request that two documents be included in that official publication.

The first is a trip report from one of my staff members, Linda Rotblatt, who participated in official observation missions to both the local and Presidential elections in Nigeria in December 1998 and February 1999. Included in her report is an appendix of the reports of the groups that conducted U.S.-funded observation missions. I think these reports greatly contribute to our understanding of what happened throughout the electoral period in Nigeria and it would be useful to have them published in one place.

Second, Mr. Chairman, if I could I would like to include for the record a statement of Bronwen Manby, a researcher for Human Rights Watch. Ms. Manby was originally scheduled to be a witness on the private panel, but was unable to participate when we had to change the date. I think her testimony offers an important insight into our subject today, so I would like to have that included in the record as well.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman and Senator Feingold. Please accept my apologies for the unfortunate delay in my arrival as a result of Washington traffic, both inside and outside the State Department. I deeply apologize. I know you were ready to go and I hate to be the subject or cause of delay.

Before I begin my testimony I also want to say that, like you, I bask in what I hope is the glow, but may be for some the gloom, of the passage of the Africa Growth and Opportunities Act, and I say that with some care because I know Senator Feingold had hoped for more. I think we all hope for more in the future, but I thought that the vote, the outstanding vote of the Senate on this legislation and the purpose for which it is directed, is an extremely important ratification of the importance that we attach to Africa. We are happy that this has in the best sense of the word bipartisan support and a bipartisan aspect to it which is all too rare these days in these precincts. So I thank you very much for all of the work and all of the effort that went into that.

I would also say that we have apologized to each other for the rescheduling. I am happy to come. I think that, as opposed to "justice delayed is justice denied," a hearing delayed in this particular case may be a hearing enhanced, in the sense that we have more to work with now. We have more actually to discuss and we have the visit of the Secretary to Africa and the visit of President Obasanjo here to build on, and I hope that will make the committee and the hearing more enlightened and be more useful to you in the work that we have to do.

Eighteen years ago, Mr. Chairman, I arrived in Nigeria as the U.S. Ambassador during the administration of Alhaji Shehu Shagari, Nigeria's first and unfortunately last elected civilian President until last year. Nigeria's early experiment with democracy ended 2 years later, falling victim to institutional flaws, political corruption, and a declining economy. What followed was a succession of military rulers who became increasingly corrupt and contemptuous of democracy, leading to more than a decade of political and economic deterioration that resulted in international isolation.

Last February, 8 months after the sudden death of General Abacha in June 1998, Nigerians again voted in elections that were not perfect, but both Nigerian and foreign observers concluded that those elections reflected the will of the Nigerian people that Olusegun Obasanjo should become their first elected leader in 15 years.

When Secretary of State Albright visited the Nigerian capital Abuja, 2 weeks ago, she praised President Obasanjo and his government for their courage in restoring democratic institutions, fighting corruption, and establishing government accountability. The Secretary encountered a great sense of hope and expectation in what was the first trip by a U.S. Secretary of State to Nigeria in 12 years. She pledged our support for the Government of Nigeria's new effort to rebuild democratic and free market institutions in Nigeria and to accelerate its transformation to the prosperous democratic regional leader it can and should be.

Why is Nigeria's democracy important to us? A strong democratic and prosperous Nigeria can help us meet our two main policy objectives in Africa: to integrate Africa into the global economy through trade, investment, sustainable development strategies, transport, fair legal systems, respect for human rights, and good governance; and second, to deal with transnational threats that affect both Africans and Americans, including drug trafficking, transnational crime, terrorism, environmental degradation, and disease.

Nigeria with its population of over 100 million people, diverse natural and human resources, enormous economic potential, active and free press, and a growing and vibrant society, has the potential to be the economic engine and stabilizing influence in West Africa and for much of the rest of the continent and an important influence on the globe.

Already a major force in the sub-region, Nigeria took the lead in the creation of the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, in 1975, and later in creating its military arm, the Economic Community of West African States Monitoring Group, ECOMOG. Nigeria bore the greatest share of peacekeeping responsibilities in Liberia through both troop and financial contributions between 1990 and the middle of last month, when the last of its troops withdrew.

Nigeria, through ECOMOG, was also instrumental in restoring Sierra Leone's elected government in March of last year. Over the last year and a half, Nigeria's troops, along with those of Mali, Ghana, and Guinea, have defended and protected the Sierra Leonean population, upheld democratically-elected government, and pressed the rebels to go to the negotiating table. The signing of the July 7 Lome Peace Accords between rebel leader Foday Sankoh and President Kabbah marked what we hope will be the beginning of the end of that horrible civil war, many of the aspects of which were of course featured in the Secretary's visit and in the public reporting here in this country of the atrocities and degradations that accompanied that war.

On the economic front, Nigeria is our second largest trading partner on the continent. American companies have invested over $7 billion in Nigeria's petroleum sector alone. We import about 40 percent of Nigeria's oil production, which constitutes nearly 8 percent of our total oil imports. Nigeria may have one of the world's largest gas reserves, natural gas reserves, and has the potential to revive a once-flourishing agricultural sector. With adequate investment, development of its infrastructure, and good management, Nigeria can become an international economic powerhouse.

Democracy dividend. President Obasanjo knows that democracy and economic progress are mutually reinforcing. He and his government also know that building democratic institutions and combating pervasive corruption while simultaneously reforming a dysfunctional economy is an extraordinarily difficult task. They have repeatedly expressed their concern about the government's ability to meet the high expectation of Nigeria's people.

On the economy, perhaps the greatest challenge facing Nigeria's new democracy is economic management. Since Nigeria's emergence as a global oil producer in the 1970's, more than 80 percent of government revenues and 90 percent of export income have been derived from petroleum. This explains in part the development of a highly centralized state-dominated economy in which the allocation of petroleum contracts and agreements has been a principal source of patronage, political control, and competition.

Despite Nigeria's great oil wealth, living conditions for average citizens are extremely poor. I am unhappy to report that over the past 15 years average per capita income dropped roughly 75 percent, from $1,200 per year 15 years ago to only $300 per year this year. The sharp drop in oil prices last year depressed the economy even further, although global growth and now higher oil prices have improved near-term economic prospects and performance.

Charles Pickering, Sr

In recent years, bureaucratic sluggishness and corruption have been obstacles to the establishment of a dynamic private sector, to an investment climate that welcomes all investors, and to a legal system that supports property rights for everyone. Perhaps the greatest tragedy is continued existence of widespread staggering poverty, and bankrupt institutions and decrepit infrastructure in a nation of such great promise, so many resources, and such enterprising people.

What is the United States' policy? The United States has a strong national interest in helping transform Nigeria into a genuine democracy and it is a U.S. foreign policy priority. Successful democratic transformation of Nigeria will have an impact on its neighbors; economic prosperity will raise the fortunes of the entire region. As Nigeria rebuilds its political, economic, and civic institutions, it can become a model for the entire continent.

Nigeria is potentially Africa's largest consumer market and magnet for new investment. Over the next 18 months, our approach will be to encourage consolidation of civilian rule, intensively engage Nigeria on a range of mutual concerns, from military reform to environmental issues, and develop a cooperation program that will help to assure that democracy takes root.

While acknowledging Nigeria's disproportionate burden of regional peacekeeping in recent years, we also want Nigeria to remain engaged in regional conflict resolution and peacekeeping and perhaps expand these efforts further. We have started to rebuild our military-to-military relationship, with a strong emphasis on increasing civilian control over the military.

Mr. Chairman, it is important that we support Nigeria during this critical period. As directed by President Clinton, an inter-agency assessment team, composed of eight U.S. Government agencies visited Nigeria from the 19th of June to the 2d of July. The team explored with the Nigerian Government, civil society leaders, and the American and Nigerian business communities, how the U.S. can best assist Nigeria with its political, economic, and social transformation.

Over a 2-week period, the team met with a wide range of national, state, and local officials in Nigeria, with nongovernmental organizations and business representatives, and also with President Obasanjo and senior members of his government. Mr. Chairman, at this point I would like to introduce into the record and to make available to the members of the committee the executive summary of that team's work.

For the first time in many years, Nigeria has the opportunity to build a society based on good governance, the rule of law, transparency, accountability, and a clear commitment to treat all of its citizens equitably. This administration is committed to working with the Congress to forge a new U.S.-Nigeria relationship in the context of that country's successful transition to civilian democratic rule and to ensure that we have adequate resources to achieve our objectives and forward our national interests in this very important country.

Our mission, let me be clear, is to build Nigeria's own capacity to sustain its democracy and marshall its untapped resources for economic revitalization. To do this, we are developing programs to promote economic reform and growth, build civilian-military relationships, support political structures of good governance, and assist in the rehabilitation of Nigeria's infrastructure, agricultural sector, and health and educational services. This is a large and demanding task.

Nigeria is one of the best examples of why foreign assistance is so important. We have the opportunity to invest in democracy, to invest in counternarcotics efforts, to invest in sound economic reform, and to invest in building institutions capable of returning Nigeria to a strong and prosperous partner. The time to make these investments is now, and I hope that we can work closely with this committee and with other Members of the Congress as we develop a robust and targeted program with Nigeria.

We stand at an important crossroads in Africa. Nowhere can a window of opportunity be developed and exploited so usefully as in Nigeria. What post-apartheid South Africa has done at the end of this century, Nigeria has a chance to do at the beginning of the next: better the lives of hundreds of millions of Africans at home and beyond its borders. It is imperative that we contribute resources commensurate with the challenge and with the enormity of the task.

President Obasanjo and his government have demonstrated the sincerity and commitment, if not the wherewithal, to lead that effort. We believe a strong Nigeria could lead to greater productivity, trade and investment, and over time, less assistance.

Oil reserves, which you mentioned, are huge, with the consensus being, depending on who you ask, around 20 million barrels of proven reserves. It is one of the top producers of natural gas in the world, potentially the top producer, supplying about 8 percent of our crude imports. The year 1998 available numbers put the revenues from oil at about $22 billion, $22 billion annually, numbers that will increase, as you pointed out, with the rise in the price per barrel over time.

Yet that wealth has not reached the Nigerian people, nor has it seemed to back the legitimate operations of the Nigerian Government. I guess I would like to link that as background to the Secretary, Secretary Albright's, pledge to increase our assistance to Nigeria. I guess in view of the fact in my opening statement I made the point that Nigeria does not have potential wealth, it seems to have squandered wealth or stolen wealth, could you comment on those who would question the rationale of providing assistance which would be in the $100 million, $112 million range?

I would be happy to, because I think that we have to look, of course, at both the opportunity and how Nigeria got to where it is now. With respect to the latter, as I noted in my statement, we had a long period of really inept and at the end obviously corrupt and dangerous military rule, dangerous particularly for Nigeria's economy and the future of its own people.

We were given an opportunity, even more so the Nigerians, by the untimely passing of their leader on a sudden basis in June 1998. How that opportunity is now used depends first and foremost on Nigerians, and they have through a period of interim rule by a successor military leader, General Abubakar, and now with the election of General Obasanjo, in my view answered in a resoundingly positive manner that they are prepared to take steps and support leaders who are willing to take steps to open the door to the new opportunities.

What is lacking on the Nigerian side is the ability to catalyze this process through the use of information, technology, technical assistance, and other things that we in particular have a comparative advantage in being able to supply; and to do that on a basis that allows them to begin to develop all of those possibilities for the enormous wealth that they have so far squandered.

So it is a second chance. As you know, for people who have alcohol addiction second chances are never perfect, but there is a real opportunity. I have to tell you that President Obasanjo has never been an addict. He in fact, as you know, spent 4 years in prison because of his belief about the future of his own country, and he is now being given a second chance in his life in fact to put into practice the beliefs for which he suffered so long.

So I have no doubt about President Obasanjo's commitment. I have had the honor to know him for a number of years and he is a man who is a statesman on the world scene. I also have a strong belief that the Nigerian citizenry, regardless of the faults and foibles of the last election, made a clear choice in President Obasanjo and in a government and elected parliament to work with him.

And our own interests are very large. I am not making this case purely as an eleemosynary case. But after all, our dependence on Nigerian oil -- the fact is that Nigerians over the years have developed one of the largest networks of narcotics smuggling and we need President Obasanjo and his new commitment, which is beginning to bear fruit, to deal with this problem to help us in this particular area.

So this is the opportunity. It would be foolish of us not to recognize the risks, but it would be equally foolish of us not to recognize the risks we would incur of letting this opportunity pass us by. The commitment that we must make, your end of the avenue and my end of the avenue, is to be able to put good, solid programs in place, programs that will not be preyed upon by corrupt officials because they will be carried out by Americans and American contractors who are working with people who will bring technical assistance and not cash into the treasury of the country, in ways that can assure us that the past checkered history of this can be overcome.

I believe that, first, there is no such concrete proposal. But both the Secretary and the President have talked about quadrupling the present level, which is in the order of $27 million. So I believe your figure is in totally the right ballpark.

Second, we will come forward with a concrete proposal in order to make sure that we have your confidence and can justify the funding. I think it is extremely important for us to commit ourselves in areas where Nigerian performance can be judged. I am strongly persuaded that in assistance relationships first and foremost the linkage ought to be to the carrying out of the programs and the projects that we have in mind, and the other portion of the linkage needs to be in the area of doing nothing on the part of the government which undermines or destabilizes the basic objectives which we agree upon with the country concerned.

So I would hope it is in that context, that is continued performance by President Obasanjo on the road that he has taken. We are not in that situation where we have to persuade a President to do the hard things. We are in the situation where we have to help a President who is already persuaded to do the hard things. So it is a little bit different. So in some ways I think it is easier for me to justify this program than a lot of others I have to come up with, where you and we both agree that we should use the program to move the President and the country rather than the program to help the President do what he and we both want to see done in the country.

Charles Pickering, Sr

So I would distinguish it that way. My element of conditionality would be, as long as we and President Obasanjo agree, and I believe that is going to be the case, we should work together to do the things that we agree upon; we should measure performance, both of us, on how well and how effectively that money is used by both of us in the process.

Secretary Pickering, despite many of the encouraging signs that you talked about in Nigeria today, despite the series of elections that have occurred in the past year, the very foundation of the Nigerian political system, the Nigerian constitution, was handed down by the military regime only weeks before the new government was inaugurated. How important do you think is the question of constitutional legitimacy for Nigeria's transition and how can the United States assist Nigeria to address this issue?

Charles Pickering, Sr

I think, Senator Feingold, it is important to have constitutional legitimacy and it is important to have a constitution that broadly reflects what one would have to say is the decent opinion of mankind about what is fair, equitable, just, and legal. I think the Nigerian constitution, despite the fact that it was handed down by the military, does better with the latter test than it does the legitimacy test.

I think it is up to President Obasanjo both to figure out where there are problems in the constitution because it was handed to him, he did not have a choice, and then second how and in what way, should he choose to do so and should he believe in fact that there is a question of legitimacy, he takes it to his people.

Charles Pickering, Sr

In the past in Nigeria, they have talked about having a convention and sitting down and redrafting the constitution and putting it all in place. Coming in the immediate aftermath of a revolutionary change of government, constitution drafting by convention has its own problems. It has a divisive quality inside the country. The Nigerians are getting settled in, seem to be relatively accepting of the electoral outcome and relatively well protected at the moment by what is clearly still an imperfect constitution, in the way in which we have mentioned, to move things along.

I believe it is for Nigerians now, not foreigners, to help settle that very difficult question that they face, is this the right constitution and does it cover the problems that we have to deal with in the right sort of way. I would say this is not in my view, from what I understand to be the situation in the country, the largest problem faced by Nigeria. We should not attempt to make it a larger problem for them than they see it.

In your statement you mention the creation of a Joint Economic Partnership Committee between the United States and Nigeria. This is the first we have heard of this. I wonder if you could elaborate further on its goals and modalities.

Yes. It was, of course, something that has some history. When the assessment mission went out and as the new government began to be thought about and then elected, my very distinguished colleague Stu Eizenstat went to Nigeria. One of Stu's thoughts, which we all supported fully, was that the economic issue, the management of the economy, as I highlighted in my statement, and the host of economic problems being experienced in Nigeria, could benefit from the establishment on an institutional basis of regular exchanges between U.S. officials and Nigerian officials on the issues of trade and investment and economic management.

So this idea was brought to fruition and now Stu's successor, to be confirmed I hope very shortly, Alan Larson, who is acting in Stu's place, is leading our work in that commission. It pulls together economic expertise inside our Government and the Nigerian Government, with a very full agenda of initial discussions about how and in what way we can work with them to deal with a host of problems that they have experienced.

Obviously, it will have to touch on things like how and in what way can they begin to stabilize and formulate rules, laws, and activities to promote investment rather than to inhibit or chase investment, how can they begin to deal further with the problem of corruption. As you may know, President Obasanjo has introduced a new law, he has removed a lot of people from government, he is prepared to continue to work on accountability.

He has a huge problem. We need to do all that we can to help him, whether it is in the institutions that seem to help us here or with other best practices that can be put into effect. The remarkable thing is that for the first time in a decade or more you have a Nigerian leader who is truly committed on this problem, which has been not a peculiar affliction of Nigerians, but unfortunately something of a primary growth industry in the country that has been really deeply afflicted by this problem. And we all know that you cannot run good government and a good economy in a situation in which the decisionmaking apparatus -- and it has been heavily weighted on the government side -- is corrupted.

Let me follow on with a question on President Obasanjo, who has been so successful in his reform efforts, but some have said it is in part because he has powerful allies, such as General Babangida. I certainly was impressed with the President when I met him the other day and I heard your words describing him as a statesman.

I have been surprised, because I think that General Babangida for his own purposes probably thought it best and useful to support General Obasanjo in his election. But as I have watched and I have kept a careful eye on the situation, I have seen the continued development of the independent policies that General Obasanjo told me when I saw him in the month before he assumed office that he was going to pursue.

I can tell you that Nigerians and Americans watch very carefully this particular set of activities. I know General Babangida. I have known him for a long time. I do not think that his period was either the worst and certainly not the best in Nigerian history, and it was characterized by a lot of complaints about some of the issues we have been talking about. So I do not think that he is necessarily seen as a helpful influence, if I can be careful -- I have to be a little diplomatic from this platform occasionally -- a helpful influence on things in the future.

If he is putting his weight behind free elections and his weight behind free choice and his considerable resources behind President Obasanjo, it is incumbent in our view that President Obasanjo continue to stick to his guns and represent those policies he has been committed to and carry forward. He has in that sense developed what I would call transparency and accountability. He has told me and he has told you and others what he intends to do and he has asked us in frankness to judge him on the basis of that.

Thank you, Mr. Secretary. As Senator Feingold said, we appreciated the opportunity to spend the time with the President and talk about a broad range of issues. One of the issues that we did talk about was privatization. In response to a question, he gave us his assessment of privatization and what he thought it would take. The analogy that he used is one that I guess he uses in many different settings, and that is to selling a car. He basically said that first of all before you sell a car you need to fix it up before you sell it, and he indicated that is what he would do with the parastatals in Nigeria.

In terms of attracting investment, the time line you have spelled out historically where there is going to be some rapid change, he paints a vision and we stay very much on top observing, making sure that vision comes true, is that the best way to attract investment as he moves toward some privatization in the future?

I think there are a couple of things. First may I make a remark on privatization? I agree and I think it is very important. I can accept his shining the bumpers and hubcaps as a reasonable response, but after a period of time you cannot shine them any more.

There is in government operation of industry -- and I just spent 3\1/2\ years in Russia before I came back to this job -- huge inefficiencies and terrible inequalities. Even in the name of social justice, the introduction of government control is often perverted and pulled out of order and distorted. So I believe that competition is a balance wheel for this and helps us balance social justice and equity in one side through government regulation with effective and efficient performance on the other side, which builds the income.

This is always subject to debate and argument. But I think in Africa today and maybe in Nigeria today, if I had a criticism I would say there is a reluctance on the part of the state to part with what it had envisaged as a national patrimony in the best sense of the word, and about which I think the notion of poor organization, inefficient management, and costly operation and poor decisionmaking has not caught up with the fact that there are ways under careful regulation and control -- after all, we all live in regulated economies, you and we both work at that -- we can get better value for our people out of that kind of organization and you can return something to the state.

So I would hope and encourage privatization, and if I have new opportunities to talk with General Obasanjo that is one of the things that is on my agenda and he knows it. That is no secret. We continue to talk about this. This is in my view extremely important. So I think we need to have that go ahead.

Further, privatization is a clear signal to investors that the government wishes to become at least friendly, not antagonistic to, the people who are prepared to put their capital to work in that country. I do not mean that this should be unfettered and have only Adam Smith watch over the process. I think we need to obviously encourage governments to run good economies through careful management, they have taxation, they have health regulations, they have all the things that we know about that make our economies run in the interest of the public as well as the interest of the profits.

I think, second, the government has to convince the investor that if he puts his money in he can get a fair return on capital, that he will not be robbed, and that he can have governmental peace, ethnic peace where that has been a huge problem, stability, that he can compete on a level playing field, that he does not have enormous extra costs to be involved in. Even if the oil business is lucrative, obviously there are always limitations, and that has to be done.

In general, Nigeria I think has done a fair job with bringing in oil investors. It could do better. It has not done as well with other industries, the service sector, other kinds of manufacturing, and so on. I would urge that in the areas that I have mentioned and others that are related to that you get a sense of transparency and predictability.

Let me ask, because we did not have time when we were with him to explore all of these areas, but one area that has not been mentioned is telecommunications. We have heard that Nigeria has essentially changed their policy with respect to the telecommunications sector to one which would attract immediate considerable direct foreign investment and, specifically, that $100 million will be required up front for a license fee for wireless communications and this would be after fees were paid, license issued, and agreements made under different rules and understandings.

I do not and it sounds prohibitive to me. It sounds like it is a closing of the sector. I mean, I do not do business in telecommunications, but any license that costs $100 million has got to be pretty tough.

Yes, I do. I think that there is a new spirit abroad in Nigeria. There is a long way still to go and there are still a lot of abuses and difficulties. But there is more openness in the society. People are responding to General Obasanjo's efforts to get at corruption. I think there is more responsibility.

He himself I know has pointed out, because I read this in the press statements -- I was out of the country at the time he was here -- that one of the immediate things he has done is he has gotten rid of gas lines. If you have gas lines in one of the world's largest producers of petroleum, you have got real problems, and he recognized that.

So he has introduced responsibility and an effort to put the refineries back into repair and an effort to block what was really I think a huge scam, where people depended upon imports of petroleum products as a way of making extra money. It was in a sense a corrupt channeling of supplies and scarcity and maintenance of scarcity by government collusion in order to increase profits, and that is why they had the horrible problem with higher prices and lines and no available fuel for long periods of time.

I think that that has ended and I think that is a step forward. There are still difficult problems. The ethnic problems in the delta of Nigeria, the oil-producing region, the deep-seated feelings on the part of the people that are there that they have not enjoyed in a responsible way many of the benefits that would have come had some of the oil income come in their direction, is a serious problem.

General Obasanjo has been there several times. He has a new law on delta development. He has worked with the Governors and, even more importantly in my view, has begun to work with grassroots organizations, NGO's in that region, to begin to find ways to deal with the problem.

The problem has taken on proportions beyond merely sensing a feeling of deprivation. It has taken on the prospect of intercommunal -- the actuality of intercommunal strife between groups, ethnic groups in the region, and between ethnic groups and the oil producers and the oil producers' foreign employees or non-ethnic employees in some cases, not of the particular local ethnic group.

It is a difficult problem and it will affect production, and people tell me in fact that there is a hesitancy on the part of oil developers to develop onshore resources if they have a choice of developing offshore. So I think it is serious and needs to be faced, and this has been part of our conversations with General Obasanjo.

One or two questions, Secretary Pickering. The first one is, Nigeria has been a very important partner in U.S. efforts to address the tragic crisis in Sierra Leone and I personally witnessed the Nigerian effort in Liberia in 1994 and I remember being intrigued by that commitment despite the nature of the Government in Nigeria. But ECOMOG operations have been costly. President Obasanjo frequently cites, I believe, an $8 billion figure and he mentions both the human and economic term problems of that and the political unpopularity of this in Nigeria.

Charles Pickering, Sr

Yes. I would say first, to the immediate future, General Obasanjo not only has indicated his deep concern by the continued long-term heavy drain on the treasury, but has taken firm decisions to remove his forces from Sierra Leone, although with a caveat that not only is he prepared to use those forces now for the disarmament and the demobilization and rehabilitation process, which is to take the weapons out of the hands of parties that should not be having them under the peace agreement, but to leave in place as part of a follow-on United Nations peacekeeping force a considerable number of Nigerian troops. Those troops of course would be financed under the regular United Nations peacekeeping scale and he would be relieved of the financial burden.

Down the road, we are looking first and foremost with the Nigerians at military reform and the primary requirement we see is not only civilian control, but the development of a ministry of defense, not just an army headquarters to run the military, with civilian MOD employees, if I can put it that way. So we have a program already begun working with the Nigerians to do this and to begin this process. That is extremely important.

Second, the Nigerians will be looking at downsizing. They have at their own expense engaged a U.S. firm, NPRI, retired American military who have worked other places in the world, to work on the civilianizing task and I hope eventually to help them start working on the downsizing.

The third thing that I think is extremely important, as I prefigured in my own statement, is the need for Nigerian forces and diplomacy to be available in the region to deal with conflict in the region. Now, ECOMOG is interesting in the sense that it has had a huge amount of peacekeeping experience and a huge effect. It has been Nigerian led and almost Nigerian dominated, certainly Nigerian financed.

If Nigeria were to disappear from ECOMOG, it would unfortunately be tiny and not functionally viable, I think, because of a lack of the resources to make it happen. So Nigeria is not only the key to ECOMOG, it is the cornerstone of ECOMOG.

We have a program in Africa, the African Crisis Response Initiative, in which up to six countries now, I believe we have, work in training peacekeeping battalions. I believe in the future Nigeria, if it continues on the path to civilian democratic government and responsible military, should benefit as well, if it wants it, from that kind of training, so that its peacekeeping skills, its experience, can be honed and developed.

We ought to be able to learn something from a country that has been involved in 5 or 10 years of peacekeeping in one of the toughest places in Africa. I think we have information and technology and ideas to impart to them. And it will put them in a position to work more closely with their previously trained neighbors, because integration and cooperation in working together is also something that we think is extremely important in ACRI.

If I could just as a final question, sort of following on that, I find your reference to ACRI very interesting. Over the last year the U.S. has stepped up its engagement with the Nigerian military and the administration has announced its intentions to resume IMET funding to Nigeria. What kind of direct military training is under consideration and why do you believe that this is an important priority at this time, when Nigeria has so many other needs?

Charles Pickering, Sr

I think that if I could rely a lot and not waste your time on my answer to the last question, many of those answers have already been prefigured, if not responded to. It is important because of peacekeeping, because of the need to get the military out of political life, the need to begin to bring about civilian control for the military, and the need to, in my view, professionalize a military that has been overblown, bloated, and let go, if I could use typical American expressions, and mainly and significantly to respond to Nigerian desires.

President Obasanjo, we frequently tend to forget, was a military leader, the only one to step into civilian life and leave office to a civilian government. He has a remarkable balance and a remarkable basis. He is extremely important because the military, unfortunately, in Nigeria has always considered itself a court of last resort for correction.

Having an elected former military leader now civilian President to deal with the military is very valuable. It is an opportunity now to help get it right, rather than to permit the military once again to get it wrong.

I feel very badly because I cannot think of anything that is, quite frankly, of greater significance to our interests in Africa than the democratic transition and the future of Nigeria. It is amazing to me how many Americans understandably have no notion of the size, significance, and importance of Nigeria in Africa and over time in the world.

So what I would like to do is, rather than bore you with my opening statement, I am going to have my statement placed in the record as if read. And if you will give me 1 second here, since I kind of got caught off guard as I walked in, I have a couple questions I want to ask you.

You especially have a solid and profound understanding about just how pivotal a country Nigeria is in West Africa. I do not need to recite for you how influential that country has been politically and economically to the surrounding countries. Unfortunately, that influence has not always been positive.

It seems to me, and I am sure you will agree, Nigeria stands at a crucial crossroads. Right now, in that country there is a chance to enact true democratic and economic reform. And I am not talking about holding elections. That was merely the first step. I am talking about improving the electoral process to minimize fraud, taking clear control over the military, providing a climate wherein the judiciary can begin to function independently, and ending corrupt government practices.

I understand that the administration would like to increase aid to Nigeria by three times its present amount. Given the current climate here on Capitol Hill, it is unlikely that the foreign aid budget will increase significantly. The vetoed Foreign Operations Appropriations bill was almost $2 billion below the President's request.

The way I see it, the United States should pursue three major goals in its relationship with Nigeria. They are: an increase in the areas of U.S. trade and investment, an improvement in combating international crime and continued promotion and sustenance of democracy. I want to briefly address these issues.

I do not need to emphasize the significance of our relationship with Nigeria economically. You are well aware that U.S. companies have $7 billion invested in Nigeria, mostly in the petroleum sector. Oil companies are developing the liquified natural gas sector, which could increase their investment considerably.

The United States imports 8% of its oil from Nigeria, and in the future this figure is likely to rise rather than fall. I believe that it is in our interest to ensure that U.S. investments are protected and that our access to oil continues.

The relationship is not one-sided. With the proper financial controls and management structure, Nigeria could benefit from this relationship as well. The challenge for the new government is ensuring that the population benefits from oil revenues from now on.

While oil is the most prominent area of our trade and investment relationship with Nigeria, reform of the economy and financial sectors could well stimulate investment in other areas. I think it would benefit both of our countries to help Nigeria pursue a program of economic reform in order to create a climate that is suitable and attractive to investors.

Under the previous Nigerian Government, criminals operated with impunity. Crime was treated with indifference by law enforcement officials who were either underpaid or unpaid altogether. Little or no resources were devoted to training and equipping police. The United States provided very little aid to law enforcement due to sanctions that were in place until General Abubaker took control of the government.

As a result of the lax attitude toward crime, Nigeria has become a major transshipment point for illicit drugs. Nigerian drug trafficking and organized crime in the United States have become such a problem that U.S. law enforcement agencies have had to established an interagency task force to combat it in five major metropolitan areas, including the Baltimore-Washington area.

Drug trafficking and organized crime is a potentially de- stabilizing force in Nigeria. The massive amounts of money coming into that country from illegal activities abroad in combination with the fragility of the political situation create conditions conducive to corruption of the political process.

Finally, and this goes without saying, but I want to make it clear; we must continue our support for democracy in Nigeria. Is democracy necessary for us to sustain an economic relationship with Nigeria? Clearly not. Is it the only way that we can get cooperation in the area of law enforcement? Some would argue no, but I believe that for our efforts to be successful and effective, it would help.

The Obasanjo administration faces a host of challenges. Restructuring the economy, and paying off international debt are two of the biggest. The new government will also have to deal with the continued unrest in the Niger Delta. Its method of dealing with citizens of the Delta will be closely watched by the international community, and the government's commitment to human rights will be evaluated, fairly or not, on its ability to resolve the situation peacefully.

Let me state for the record that I approve of a policy of strong engagement with the new Government of Nigeria. We have a window of opportunity through which we can help the government in that country create a sound, viable stable democracy. Not only is it important to the West African region, it is in our interest to do so.

Mr. Secretary, will you briefly outline what the general conclusions of the assessment team were in terms of priorities for U.S. assistance and, given the scarcity of our aid resources and the reluctance of our Republican brethren to meet what I view to be the legitimate needs of our foreign assistance, what in your estimation are the most important areas for us to focus on?

I am not asking you to stunt your -- let me start off. I agree with the administration. I agree the aid level in the request is an appropriate request. But can you outline how you arrived at it? And then if you have to, which I am frank to say to you I am afraid we are going to be involved in, decide among -- it is like giving you a Sophie's Choice here, but not what you are willing to give up, but what is the most important aspect of the aid that you are requesting, the areas we should focus on?

Thank you, Senator Biden, very much. First let me thank you for taking time out of what I know is a hectically busy schedule to even come and spend a few minutes here. I am very pleased and I know the Secretary will be that your interest in Africa and these issues is important.

Charles Pickering, Sr

The inter-agency assessment team identified a number of activities that we think need to be carried out over 18 to 24 months, first to sustain democratic transition and as well to bring into effect longer term activities that we want to undertake in the future. Now, the recommendations focus our assistance on six major areas: democracy and governance; economic reform; civil-military relations; capacity building in energy, transportation, and infrastructure; agriculture and education; and then health, population, HIV-AIDS and child survival. These tend to reflect some of the budgetary arrangements of the House and Senate, so they will seem in fact familiar, in terms of where these are going.

These were based on a careful look at Nigeria in June and July of this past year, a lot of conversations with both government and nongovernment people, up to and including President Obasanjo himself. They represent areas where we believe that careful, prudent amounts of assistance can help us produce major leverage, if I could put it that way, with other dollars, with Nigerian budgets, and provide capabilities, technical information, skills, technical support, in areas where we have a comparative advantage and where the Nigerians truly have a hole in the program that they cannot fill with their own resources.

It is invested to help build capacity, but it is also invested over this 18 to 24 month period with the idea in mind of being finite and getting us out of business. In many ways there is an important question: Why should we be helping a country with all this oil income, even though it has a huge population?

The answer is basically the same as the answer to why you need jumper cables and somebody else's battery to start a cold car. It is literally a cold car. It has got fuel in the tank, but we have to do something to jump start it in these critical areas. So that is the reason we are coming up.

No, no. The remarkable thing about the question is that we have not got enough money yet in the budget to justify the programs that we would like to bring about, and this is one of our problems. So we have proposed in effect a $20 million program because we had to put the budget together before the assessment team came in for a $108 million set of projects.

So our problem will be where do we find the additional money or how and in what way do we change our own priorities. The tragedy would be that, if anything like the bills that have been proposed up here with billion dollar cuts goes through, we have no way to rob Peter to pay Paul, not that it is easy to do that anyway. You should see the blood on the floor of my office every time I talk about Nigeria on this issue.

So in a sense, you are up here, Senator, doing the Lord's work in terms of trying to get the money back that we need just to meet a basic program, and your question to me raises the issue of, if this is not in the base program how do we find it. And I do not have a good answer, but I cannot even approach thinking about that question if we do not get what it is the President has asked for.

Joe Biden

I am going to ask you a crazy question. It will not surprise you coming from me. You are one of the most skilled and seasoned diplomats we have and have had in any administration. I have been here 27 years. One of the things that, in my experience with you, you are good at is not only assessing what our relationship should be with other countries, but assessing why there is a willingness to engage some countries and an unwillingness to engage others here.

First of all, cutting a billion dollars is mindless in my view. But let me say what you cannot say, maybe would not say, maybe you do not believe. There is this little game going on here up here, and that is let us make foreign policy the last thing we deal with, foreign aid, so we can then juxtapose foreign aid against Social Security in a cynical way and make it sound like, OK, if you want to raid Social Security, which you have already raided by 18, 20 billion bucks, we are going to do it for those Africans or those Asians or those Europeans or those whomever.

That is the cynical game I think is being played here. I am not suggesting that is the motive of anybody on this committee. I mean the overall rationale of this budget fight, why there is the fight to make foreign aid the last car on the train here.

With Nigeria it is our oil supply. With Nigeria it is narcotics trafficking. With Nigeria it is influence in a critical area of Africa. With Nigeria it is dispute settlement. If 30 percent of all new jobs in the United States depend on some overseas activity, it means cutting the throats of people in Peoria or Waukegan or someplace else if we do not pay attention to this.

Somehow we must make that known. Somehow we must get across that in fact everything we do more and more -- in the area of globalization -- it is a wonderful word, but it really truly means we are more integrated into international activity in business and in every aspect of society. And if we are not prepared to take even up to 1 percent of our budget to put at the service of our own people in this way, it seems to me that we are compounding tragedy. And putting foreign affairs last in order to "dis it" or play a game with it in my view is remarkably cynical, and I said I was not going to get into it.

I think, though, there is a sense that I have up here for the first time in 27 years that the consensus across party lines on engaging the world is slipping a bit. I do not mean to -- I am by occupational requirement an optimist, so I still believe we will figure our way out of this. But I think it is going to be a tough, a tough road.

I do not have any more time left to go vote unless I run now. I would like to ask, Mr. Chairman -- and I am not looking to make work; I am looking to make a record -- if I may submit to you some very good questions, I believe, my staff has drafted for me going into three or four different areas, that I would like to be able to submit for the record.

What law enforcement assistance programs are the United States currently engaged in in Nigeria? Are there any plans to expand or increase the number of programs? Answer. Cooperation between U.S. and Nigerian law enforcement agencies has increased. The ties between the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and its Nigerian counterpart, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), and between the Secret Service and the Nigerian Police Force Special Fraud Unit have significantly strengthened and improved during the past eighteen months.

We are working with Nigeria to improve counter-narcotics and overall law enforcement to ensure the country can meet the requirements for certification. In FY99, the Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement of the Department of State provided approximately $1,918,000 to assist the Nigerians in fighting crime and narcotics trafficking. These programs were broken down as follows:

Crime is a growing problem in Nigeria and throughout Africa. U.S. government money spent on effective training of African police to combat criminal organizations at their source pays dividends by reducing the direct effects of crime on U.S. citizens, decreasing the vulnerability of African countries to corruption, and increasing respect for human rights and the rule of law. The State Department will continue to make such training an important budget priority and will work with Congress to increase this high return investment as future budgets allow. Question. Nigerian organized crime is said to be a problem all over the world, and clearly such criminal rings operate in the United States.

How prominent are Nigerian crime syndicates in the United States? What sorts of activities are they involved in? Answer. Nigerian organized crime groups, with cells worldwide, supply large quantities of Asian heroin to U.S. markets. Nigerian fraud syndicates operate a wide variety of financial fraud schemes that cost U.S. businesses, individuals, and governments at all levels hundreds of millions of dollars annually.

Nigerian criminal organizations operate throughout the United States. In the narcotics field, they are primarily wholesalers and traffickers with little involvement in street-level sales. Our law enforcement agencies estimate that Nigerian traffickers supply 70% of the heroin to Chicago. The National Drug Intelligence Center's baseline assessment of Nigerian organized crime listed the following cities as key locales for Nigerian narco-criminal activity: Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, Newark, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington D.C. Secondary cities include Columbia, South Carolina; Columbus, Ohio; Fort Lauderdale and Tampa, Florida; Jackson, Mississippi; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Richmond, Virginia; Savannah, Georgia, and St. Louis, Missouri.

Fraud committed by Nigerian criminals costs U.S. businesses, individuals, and governments at all levels hundreds of millions of dollars a year. Nigerian criminals victimize institutions through insurance fraud, credit card fraud, loan fraud, identity theft, real estate fraud, benefits fraud, electronic funds fraud, and public housing fraud. They also victimize individuals through flimflam schemes with nicknames such as "wash-wash" and "419." The use of mail, phones, faxes, and e-mail allow for a victim pool that goes well beyond the urban centers listed above.

What is your estimation of the importance of the U.S. establishing military-to-military contacts, and what are the chances that such a relationship will influence the military's willingness to involve itself in politics again? Answer. The last fifteen years of military rule in Nigeria have left the country in ruins. Ironically, the Nigerian military establishment is also in ruins. Contrary to popular belief, the Nigerian military, as an institution, did not benefit during the succession of military regimes. During the Abacha era, there was a near total lack of training, equipment purchases, and maintenance. Military readiness declined and soldiers were poorly paid, housed, and fed. Morale within the military reached an all-time low. Pride in the military as a national institution disappeared. Most observers, including the Inter-Agency Assessment Team sent to Nigeria in late June 1999, conclude that military reform must be an overriding priority for the new elected civilian government, as a major component of Nigeria's transition to a system of democratic governance.

In our view, the way to keep the military out of politics is to develop a restructured, professional military subordinate to civilian control under a successful, democratic government. We, along with the British Government, are working with the new Obasanjo Administration to achieve these goals. USAID's Office of Transition Initiatives has funded a contract through MPRI, a private consulting firm that employs retired high-level U.S. military officers to develop a program focussed on civil-military relations and the role of the military in a democratic society. The objective is to inculcate these program values within the Nigerian military establishment. MPRI is also helping to develop an action plan to redefine the roles, mission, and structure of the Nigerian military establishment.

What steps is the Nigerian Government taking to ensure that there are mechanisms in place to prevent election fraud? Is there a truly independent electoral comission? Answer. Although isolated incidences of fraud were reported in areas throughout the country, the most egregious cases occurred in the southern reaches of the country. There were no widespread allegations that the Electoral Commission was corrupt or incompetent. The short time period for election preparations and the enormous costs involved also contributed to imperfections in the elections.

Newly elected legislatures at local, state and federal levels are still being organized. A national debate continues over the need for a new constitution or whether the current constitution should be changed by a sovereign national conference or the recently elected National Assembly. Reform of the electoral machinery and the establishment of an Independent Electoral Commission is another important aspect of the political culture that requires further refinement.

This coalition of 64 Nigerian pro-democracy organizations fielded more than 10,000 domestic observers in all 36 states for the Presidential election, providing close oversight and the most comprehensive monitoring effort ever for a Nigerian national election. The TMG's membership and leadership crossed all ethnic, regional and religious barriers, making it a truly national coalition. This type of civil society engagement is key to ensuring transparent and credible elections in the future. USAID provided support to the TMG.

The Independent National Electoral Commission needs support in order to become a truly effective arms-length regulatory body that can ensure a fair and legitimate electoral process. Strict enforcement of Nigeria's electoral laws and regulations is essential to prevent fraud and to increase confidence in democratic institutions and processes. Conducting genuinely free and fair elections in the future will be a major test of Nigeria's transition to democratic governance. economics

Will this bill have any effect on trade relations between Nigeria and the United States? Do you think it will promote economic growth and/or investment in Nigeria? Answer. Yes, over time and assuming Nigeria proceeds with economic and political reform, we believe this bill will help promote trade with and investment in Nigeria, as well as the rest of Africa. The central factor in the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) is the expansion of the privileges under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP). This would give Nigeria and other African countries greater access to the U.S. market without duties. Currently, however, the Nigerian economy is dominated by oil and Nigeria's small scale and underdeveloped export products would need an infusion of investment before textiles and other products are in a position to compete significantly within the U.S. market. Nigerians, however, are optimistic about prospects for trade and investment which would become available under AGOA. Question. Nigeria is burdened with a reported $31 billion in external debt, most of it owed to the Paris Club of creditors.

What is the current state of the Nigerian economy? How will this affect Nigeria's ability to pay external debt? Is debt forgiveness for Nigeria an option being discussed at the Paris Club? What about bilateral debt owed to the United States? Answer. The Nigerian economy remains depressed and handicapped by a broad array of severe infrastructural (power, water, security) and institutional. (corruption, lack of due process) weaknesses. The formal economy is overly dependent on fluctuating world oil prices, which provide virtually all of Nigeria's foreign exchange earnings and about 80 percent of government revenue.

There is tremendous competition for scarce Nigerian resources to rebuild social services, infrastructure, and expand the economy. The Obasanjo Administration confronts enormous pressures to deliver a democracy dividend, which would translate into visible improvements in the standard of living. Despite its oil wealth, Nigeria is one of the poorest countries in the world, with an annual per capita income of less than $300. For these reasons, Obasanjo continues to make the case for debt relief as key to controlling Nigeria's budget deficit and freeing up resources to restore Nigeria's institutional and social infrastructure.

There has been no formal discussion of debt forgiveness for Nigeria in the Paris Club. Nigeria currently owes over $30 billion to external creditors, including $869 million to the USG, with an annual debt service burden of about $2 billion. Its debt to the U.S. accounts for approximately 4% of its debt to Paris Club creditors and about 3% of its total debt. The United States does not, however, require the approval of the Paris Club to unilaterally forgive bilateral debt. President Clinton has stated publicly that the Administration favors generous debt rescheduling as part of a comprehensive economic program that will spur private investment and growth in Nigeria. nigeria's regional role

Question. For years Nigeria has been involved in peacekeeping efforts in Liberia and Sierra Leone. Though the performance of the military units as peacekeepers has been criticized as unprofessional in some instances, even critics agree that without Nigeria's intervention in those two countries, their collapse could have been even more profound.

What role do you envision Nigeria playing economically and politically in the region should the democratic transition be successful? Will this have any impact on the U.S. relationship with Nigeria? Answer. Our hope is that Nigeria will remain actively involved in regional conflict resolution and peacekeeping. It is in Nigeria's interest to do so. Popular disaffection at home, however, obstructs Nigeria's involvement in resolving regional conflicts when many domestic needs remain unsatisfied. Nigeria has borne a disproportionate burden of regional peacekeeping operations in terms of treasure and loss of lives. In the future, Nigeria will look to greater burden- sharing by others in the region as well as greater support by the international community.

As the elected President of sub-Saharan Africa's most populous country, Obasanjo can have tremendous influence on other African nations. In the short time he has been in office, he has been active internationally playing a central role in the development of the peace process in Sierra Leone and encouraging dialogue in Angola, Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. A right-sized, reformed, professional Nigerian military can continue to play a critical role in future peacekeeping efforts in the region, as Nigeria is the only country in the region capable of projecting military force.

Economically, a prosperous and flourishing Nigeria will have a spill-over effect onto other regional economies. If Nigeria realizes its vast economic, commercial, and investment potential, it raises the prospects for stability and economic growth in the entire region. The United States recognizes Nigeria as Africa's largest potential consumer market and as a prospective destination for investment.

And as I said, Mr. Chairman, in your absence, I have been informed 10 minutes before I came over here that we are going to go to the bankruptcy bill, which I am responsible in part for managing on the floor, so I may not be back. But if that is not the case, the bad news is I will be back.

-PURCHASE, NEW YORK, NY Dr. Herskovits. Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. I appreciate the opportunity to testify at these hearings, discussing these issues that have long concerned me, for over three decades in fact. Discussing them at so hopeful a time, with so many sharing these hopes, is a great pleasure, and a great contrast to when I was last here in 1996.

I think the breadth of this hearing is appropriate. Relations between the U.S. and Nigeria depend on the success of its transition to civilian rule and democracy. The transition, however, is a work in progress, and Nigeria's problems will not be solved by an election alone, as the Under Secretary mentioned. As President Obasanjo said here last week, democracy is not an event, it is a process, adding that we need to see him hand over to an elected successor to be confident of its durability.

In my prepared statement I look at where Nigeria stands now as Nigerians see it. Where do their hopes rest? Where do their most immediate problems lie? What are the longer range challenges they face? I move then to the relationship between the United States and Nigeria and conclude with policy matters.

We all know Nigeria's vital statistics -- size, population, resources -- and how damaging the last 15 years of military rule have been. We have heard some of that already. Self-serving policies purposely undermined Nigeria's previously robust institutions, from the civil service through civil society. The vibrant and growing middle class of the 1970's and early 1980's was destroyed. Poverty escalated as insecurity and deprivation ruled the land. Corruption on an unimagined scale was central to control at the top and, for many others, became the only means of survival.

The drop in Nigeria's economic fortunes that began in the early eighties, along with international borrowing, underlay what followed. Combined with massive devaluation of the naira, the demands of debt service would impoverish many in this import-dependent economy. The criminal looting of the treasury that came as well escalated the dire consequences.

These economic circumstances, which continue today, have compounded a problem that for historical reasons afflicts Nigeria, namely the central role of government in people's lives and prospects. It focuses too much attention on politics and power, it interferes with new economic policies, and it is remarkably resilient, going so deep few even discuss it. It underlies many of Nigeria's problems, even as Nigerians continue to look to government for solutions.

President Obasanjo also empaneled a group of respected, credible Nigerians to examine allegations of human rights abuses. He retired over 100 high-ranking military officers who had held political positions in previous regimes. All of these measures were popular, and all raised hope and expectations. In Nigeria, as here, these expectations are high, perhaps unrealistically so.

So much needs to be done and prioritizing is vital, though very difficult. Does one start with the economy? If so, where? Does one start with the constitution? If so, how? How high a priority is the military? Does one focus on redressing the wrongs of the past, as the President stressed at the start, or, as he seemed to say last week, put the bulk of one's energies into solving the problems of the present and future?

Among the highest priorities I believe must be the military. Scarcely any need is more pressing than to create a trim, professional military that understands its role in a democratic system and is responsible to civilian authority. This requires training and there is no time to waste in getting started. Grumblings are already audible among junior officers: Where are the benefits, they ask, that come to them from Nigeria's democracy? Here also, expectations are high.

Two immediate challenges face Nigeria's military. One is its peacekeeping responsibilities in West Africa, about which we have been hearing today. The second and more difficult is internal. The military have long been asked to perform duties that seem to Americans more appropriate for the police. But Nigeria's police, neglected, underpaid, and corrupt, lack the training to handle such conflicts as have broken out in the Niger Delta and elsewhere. Thus the military will continue to be called upon when such crises occur. This makes all the more critical appropriate training, for the police certainly, but also for the military in the interim.

In my prepared statement I take up several of the hot button issues of today's Nigeria, among them the constitution, its federal structure, and how to share revenue. Time does not allow me to discuss them here, important though they are, but, especially because Senator Feingold raised the matter of the constitution, I would be happy to talk further about it if you or he wishes to ask.

But immediate dangers lie in the Niger Delta. Many localities where oil companies operate and now the all- important liquefied natural gas facility is being built have provided one flash point after another. Ironically, the LNG plant, apart from generating needed additional revenue, will play a major role in ending the decades-long destructive and wasteful flaring of the gas associated with oil production that has so damaged communities in the delta.

The delta is the region of the greatest ethnic, linguistic, and geographical complexity in a country where complexity is everywhere. Because its people see themselves as having provided Nigeria's wealth for decades with little coming back to them, their anger has escalated. Combine this rage with the same high unemployment that plagues the whole country, especially among the young, add the demonstration effect of international NGO support for some local efforts, and the combustible nature of the mix is obvious.

Unfortunately, some of the protest has moved beyond spontaneous violence to criminal acts, threatening the economic lifeline of the nation. If people in the oil-producing communities do not see tangible results on the ground, difficult as the terrain literally is, and see them soon, we are likely to see even more violence.

Delta issues, however, are often posed as either matters of justice and fairness or of security. Actually, they are both and more. It serves neither the people of the delta nor Nigeria as a whole to reduce this highly complex crisis to any single issue with a simple solution. And failure to solve the delta problem could deal a severe blow to the hopes for Nigeria's democracy, economic growth, and, even -- though I fervently hope not -- international support.

Turning back to the United States and Nigeria, in Abuja recently some of the Nigerian legislators who had visited here expressed concern about what the United States can and will do to help. They feared that the intricacies of policymaking mean that little will be done. They understand that measures taken since 1993 are difficult to remove, but at the same time they point to the continuous demands that Nigeria democratize and they say -- and this is a literal quote: "OK, now we have done it and, even if we did it for our own sake, should you not make a serious effort to help us, instead of explaining to us what is not possible because of this or that regulation or legislation or politics?"

Indeed, the high degree of official interest since May 29, so welcome to Nigerians after their painful isolation, has raised the expectations, probably unrealistically, about what the United States will do to support them. This matches what they expect from their new government. The possibility of disappointment in both cases is considerable.

We know that the greatest constraint on U.S. policy is financial. We must seek imaginative alternative ways to find more resources, even while working to overcome the resistance to increasing, for instance, the budget of USAID and others. The planned U.S.-Nigerian Joint Economic Partnership Committee just spoken about this afternoon may provide a vehicle for tackling this challenge.

Nigerians see a double standard when it comes to Africa's needs compared to almost anyone else's. This is not in Nigeria's case mainly a question of aid. President Obasanjo's pleas for debt relief and assistance in recovering stolen money are central to Nigeria's ability to handle its problems. Nigeria insisted on paying its own way in the late 1960's and 1970's. It has also been generous to its neighbors and others. Hence the plea for debt relief.

It is of course true that Nigeria does not meet HIPC or Paris Club conditions for forgiveness, but it should not be impossible to find a new solution to this problem. The United States can press for conditions to be modified, perhaps. What good does it do the countries of West Africa who do qualify for forgiveness if Nigeria's indebtedness were to undermine its economic recovery and even its democracy, with obvious impact beyond its borders?

For democracy to endure, Nigerians must see improvement in their standard of living and especially the creation of jobs. If Nigeria puts in place the conducive policies President Obasanjo says it must and will, the U.S. Government can support frameworks and guarantees that give confidence to a hesitant, if interested, U.S. private sector.

Along with the economy, I believe, as is clear from what I have already said, the police and the military need urgent attention and assistance. Already, through the Office of Transition Initiatives the State Department is working on civil-military relations, stressing the role of the military in a democracy. Meanwhile, essential to achieving the goals for a new Nigerian military are both the IMET and Expanded IMET programs.

I realize there are concerns about IMET, and we have heard some of them already expressed. But based on what I have learned through years of talking with Nigerian officers, senior and junior, and not least while working on regional security issues, I am convinced that making it possible for them to attend courses available through IMET is crucial. The key to professionalization of the forces must be education and professional training, which does of course also include the role of the military in a democratic society.

In addition, we want Nigeria to continue to participate in peacekeeping. But in Sierra Leone the Nigerian troops found themselves with no peace to keep. They had to fight and they took casualties, and some of these surely were because of lack of training. This is another, if you will, humanitarian reason for IMET.

Also critical is internal security when violence erupts. Training special units to better handle such situations is essential. But this also needs a new approach that I think should include support, not only from the administration and Congress, but, especially in reference to the Niger Delta, from human rights and environmental organizations that have played so important a part in bringing the issues there to international attention.

Respect for human rights must be a key component of whatever training the U.S. supports, and those with expertise in this area should participate in and also endorse such vital training.

Peacekeeping is the area in which the Africans see a double standard most starkly displayed. Why are the horrific human rights abuses in Sierra Leone less worthy of U.S. attention and resources than the ones in Kosovo or East Timor? Now the Security Council has at least approved an assessed peacekeeping mission for Sierra Leone. Nigeria has borne for years the financial and human cost, as we have already heard, of trying to keep the peace there and in Liberia, and Nigerians will provide the bulk of the up to 6,000-man peacekeeping force charged with disarming and demobilizing Sierra Leone rebel forces.

But U.N. reimbursement for peacekeeping missions is slow at the best of times, which these are not. Nigeria is not unappreciative of the $100 million of assistance the United States eventually provided to ECOMOG, and only then through some creative policymaking. But Nigeria's burden, the $8 billion we have heard about today, was obviously disproportionate. The State Department needs greater resources to assist regional peacekeeping efforts. That last year only a paltry $4 million was available for all of Africa is astonishing, or should be.

The Sierra Leone peacekeeping mission offers another opportunity for creative policymaking. An idea comes from the Government of The Netherlands, which produced a variant of their now-mooted debt for peacekeeping swap to pay earlier for some of the non-Nigerian troops in ECOMOG. I understand that applying this notion to what will be taking place now in Sierra Leone is still in its formative stages. The U.S. should work with this idea so that its eventual terms do not preclude Nigeria as a beneficiary on the grounds that it has oil resources. Ideally, some of the expenditures on peacekeeping made before a swap comes into effect could be taken into account.

So what more can and should the U.S. do? I would like to make just three more small suggestions. One, address as expeditiously as possible the constraints placed on assistance as punitive measures against Nigeria from 1993 on. Of course there is a separate basis for concern about drug trafficking, but with the current cooperation I hope recertification or at least a national interest waiver will be possible.

Two, permit direct flights between the U.S. and Nigeria. I know at firsthand the efforts made to bring Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos up to the standards the U.S. requires. I also know from much flying in and out of other airports in Africa and elsewhere that it is not the worst of them. And it is a matter of profound chagrin to Nigerians to see prominently displayed here at every airport warnings against traveling there.

It is true now, as it has been since direct flights were prohibited, that the people this ban hurts most are not the privileged elite. Students and people with sick relatives and even academics like me, for example, sorely miss being able to travel to and from Nigeria more cheaply and efficiently.

Third, bring back the Peace Corps to Nigeria. With the disastrous state of education there and with resourceless local governments now responsible for schools, Peace Corps teachers would be welcome. The needs are so great, indeed, in so many areas that any Peace Corps mission would be helpful.

So then, in conclusion, what lies ahead? I share Nigerians' hopes for their country and am delighted to be able to talk of Nigeria in this new positive atmosphere. But I also remember that in 1978, which is the last time when relations between the U.S. and Nigeria were cooperative and warm, an article I wrote on the subject in the Financial Times was headlined "The Dangers of Falling in Love." Expectations were the issue.

In today's Nigeria, blessed though it is with a President committed to righting the wrongs and curing the ills of his country, the job is still formidable. Many things could go wrong and some of them almost certainly will. Nigeria needs friends who will not turn away when that happens, and I very much hope that this time the United States will be one of them.

I am a professor of history at the State University of New York at Purchase. African history, distant and recent, is my field of specialization, and Nigeria -- especially its on-going struggles with governance and relations between it and the United States -- has been the central concern of my work since 1970, although my interest in its politics goes back to my first travels there, as a student, shortly before its independence in 1960. Since the end of Nigeria's civil war in 1970, I have spent time there almost every year, for stays ranging from ten days to the 18 months that led to the 1979 transition to civilian rule. I have traveled throughout the country, discussing over the years their concerns with as wide a range of Nigerians as possible in 34 out of the current 36 states. I returned two and a half weeks ago from my fourth trip there this year.

It is a particular pleasure to be able to talk about Nigeria in a climate of hope, very much in contrast to when I was last here, in 1996. I think the breadth of this hearing is appropriate, for relations between the US and Nigeria depend primarily on the success of its transition to civilian rule and democracy. There are some who, looking at the dramatic changes that culminated in the inauguration of President Olusegun Obasanjo on May 29th, would say that the transition has taken place. But Nigerians say that their transition is, to paraphrase, a work in progress. They know their problems, so long in the making, will not be resolved by an election alone, nor even by working at them for a four-year term. As President Obasanjo himself said here last week, "democracy is not an event; it is a process," adding that we need to see him hand over to an elected successor to be confident of its durability.

Thus I will begin this statement with a look at where Nigeria stands now, as Nigerians see it. Where does their hope rest? Where do their most immediate problems lie? What are the longer-range challenges Nigeria's governments and people face? I will then take up the relationship between the United States and Nigeria, moving then to issues of policy. a little background

As an historian, I must spend a few moments on context. Nigeria is about to turn 40, and during all those years, outsiders especially have tended to minimize its complexities. People recite its vital statistics like a mantra: it is Africa's most populous country, with (now) some 110 million people. It has over 250 ethnic groups and some 400 mutually unintelligible languages. It has adherents, numbering in the tens of millions, of Islam and Christianity. It is the world's 10th largest oil producer (and the United States' fifth largest supplier), but one of the world's poorest countries by per capita GDP, about $300. Democratically-chosen civilians have ruled Nigeria during fewer than a quarter of its post-independence years.

Behind those statistics are tangled causes and consequences. Shifts in policy have left one encrusted legacy upon another to complicate the challenges its leaders now face. Particularly damaging have been the last 15 years of military rule. During that time, self-serving policies purposely undermined Nigeria's previously robust institutions, from the civil service through civil society. Its judiciary, its educational system, its military, its political organizations, its trade unions, its bar association -- all those and more suffered from neglect, manipulation, cooption, and ruthless repression, at times veiled, at others obvious. The vocal (if opinionated) press, was hounded and worse. Arguably, the most tragic broad consequences were economic: the vibrant and growing middle class of the 1970s and early 80s was destroyed. Poverty escalated as insecurity and deprivation ruled the land. Corruption on an unimagined scale was central to control at the top, and for many others became the only means of survival.

The drop in Nigeria's economic fortunes that began in the early 1980s,\1\ and the international borrowing on a large scale that was new to Nigeria, \2\ underlay all the maneuvering and manipulating that was to follow. Combined with the massive devaluation of its currency, the naira, a few years later, the demands the debt imposed would impoverish many in this import-dependent economy. The criminal looting of the treasury that followed only escalated the dire consequences for Nigerians as a whole and the dwindling middle class in particular. -

These economic circumstances, which continue today, have only compounded a problem that plagues Nigeria: the central role of government in people's lives and prospects. Whereas in many parts of the world in the 20th century excessive government involvement derived from socialist ideology, in Nigeria (as in other one-time colonies), the precedent was colonial rule. Under it, power was kept securely at the top of government, and those who wielded it and made key economic decisions automatically had substantial perks -- housing, telephones, car loans, "home leave," and more. This inheritance, which makes government so attractive and so far persists, has undercut the entrepreneurial drive evident to anyone who visits Nigeria. It has undercut the search for opportunities that a vibrant private sector could offer to the country's growth and individuals alike. It has made institutions that should have some independence from government -- universities come to mind -- even want closer association with it.

This pervasive role of government, combined with all the negative consequences of oil production and the access to oil wealth that control of government provides, has intensified an unhealthy fixation on political power. It has fueled both military and civilian ambitions, including civilian support for military governments. It has escalated demands to create more and more states within the Nigerian federation, and more and more local governments within those states. These steps -- taken in the last decade for cynical reasons even if in response to popular demand -- have created more, not fewer, tensions, as people fight (at times literally) for access to whatever resources they think only a government can offer.

President Obasanjo in his first days in office acted decisively on several matters important to Nigerians. They had for years been plagued by epileptic supplies of petrol at the pump. Long, long queues and double digit hour waits were the norm, and reminded Nigerians every day how miserable was their lot. Within a few weeks of his inauguration, the queues were gone, as he made tangible his promise to Nigerians to improve their lives. He launched a high profile campaign against corruption, starting with immediate investigations into the well-known stealing of public funds by those at the top of previous administrations, notably Abacha's. The magnitude of what was rapidly uncovered shocked even cynical Nigerians, just as the efforts to recover the "loot" impressed them -- efforts in which President Obasanjo is seeking international cooperation and support. He stressed that government henceforth would be accountable, its processes transparent.

He also appointed a panel to review contracts awarded by previous governments, with an aim of securing compensation from those who had not completed -- or in some cases even started -- the work for which they had been paid. Equally important, he empaneled a group of respected, credible Nigerians to examine allegations of human rights abuses -- this was inspired by South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission -- over a period that would, by popular demand, be extended backward several times. And he retired over a hundred high-ranking military officers who had held political positions in previous regimes, and were thus presumed to harbor potential political ambitions of their own; more retirements were known to be possible later. All of these measures were popular, and all raised hope and expectations. expectations and challenges

In Nigeria, as here, these expectations are high, perhaps unrealistically so. Because of President Obasanjo's international standing, some of them rest on the international community, and especially the United States, as I will discuss shortly. Many, however, are domestic. First comes the economy: Nigerians are looking for a revitalized economy that will give them jobs and a decent standard of living. The young have become especially desperate, especially among unemployed high school and university graduates. Many know that turning a stagnant economy around can't be done quickly, and they don't expect miracles. But they expect visible signs in the right direction. That the long queues at petrol stations disappeared in early June was important.

How high a priority is the military? Does one focus on redressing the wrongs of the past, as President Obasanjo stressed at the start? Or, as he seemed to say last week, put the bulk of one's energies into solving the problems of the present and future? The Military

Among the highest priorities must be the military. Even if they prefer other topics, Nigerians say in any discussion that "the soldiers" are critical to Nigeria's future. Given its history, that should be obvious. By retiring politically active senior officers as one of his first acts, President Obasanjo implicitly confirmed that. Scarcely any need is more pressing than to create a trim, professional military that understands its role in a democratic system and that it is responsible to civilian authority. Nor is understanding sufficient; officers must subscribe and adhere to that role. This requires training most of all, and there is no time to waste in getting started. As if to underscore the urgency, grumblings are already audible among junior officers: where are the benefits to them of Nigeria's democracy?

Nigerian civilians may be suspicious of -- not to say hostile towards -- the military, and for good reason. But they do not doubt the importance to the future of the country of keeping them out of politics and governance. And though many civilians do not wish to hear it, the military too were victims of the abuse of power by their recent leaders.\3\ They were often not properly paid, housed, equipped, supplied; most repugnant was the diversion of some funds from the troops in ECOMOG in Liberia and Sierra Leone. Fortunately, President Obasanjo and his minister of defense, retired General T.Y. Danujma, well understand the importance of dealing with, not just downsizing and retraining, but also the welfare of those who will belong to the reprofessionalized national institution that will serve the country, under its democratically-elected leaders. Because both have had military careers, those in uniform at all levels anticipate understanding of their problems and improvement in their circumstances. Here also expectations are high. -

Two immediate challenges face Nigeria's military. The first is in their subregion, West Africa, where they have borne an extraordinary burden for nearly a decade, first in Liberia and then in Sierra Leone, on behalf of the ECOWAS (the Economic Community of West African States). Providing nearly all the personnel, equipment, and funding for the operations of ECOMOG, they spearheaded the only international intervention there would be (despite the US's long historical ties with Liberia) in both of those brutal civil wars. The international community showed no will to assist until quite late in the day.

This effort may have cost Nigeria as much as $8 billion, between 500 and 1,000 killed in action, and many hundreds wounded.\4\ And, however much those far away may criticize an operation with acknowledged imperfections, I have myself met numerous Liberians and Sierra Leoneans who say, unprompted and with considerable emotion, that, but for the Nigerians, they would not be alive today. -

Now that the UN Security Council has authorized an assessed peacekeeping force for Sierra Leone, there is hope that -- even as Nigeria continues to supply troops for it -- Nigeria's financial burden will be lifted. It has to be, for given the problems discussed here, it is clear that a newly democratic Nigeria cannot continue to sustain the costs.

The second and more difficult challenge is within the country, where the military have long been asked to perform highly sensitive duties that seem to Americans more appropriate, in any case, for the police. As it now stands -- and acknowledging the intentions and plans of the current minister of police affairs for the future -- the police suffer from years of neglect and pitifully low pay. Corrupted beyond description, they largely lack the training to handle appropriately such conflicts as have broken out in the Niger Delta and elsewhere. Thus, the military will continue to be called upon to safeguard life and essential facilities, when such crises occur. That there is potential for many more incidents makes all the more critical appropriate training, for the police, certainly, but also for the military in the interim, a point I will say more about later.

Meanwhile, the focus of Nigerians on government continues. The contentious issues of the constitution and of revenue sharing (in Nigerian terminology, revenue allocation) are central concerns. Years ago a Nigerian friend commented to me that "Nigerians are over politicized and under governed." I'm not sure about "under governed," but "over politicized" is certain. Apart from needing to learn or relearn how democratic governance functions, Nigerians face the complexities of an American-style federal system. The executive president and governors are more limited in freedom of action than the military executives of recent experience, and legislatures, whose members are finding their way after a long hiatus, are also facing executives unaccustomed to sharing power, especially financial power, with legislators.\5\ Working all this out will take time, and the budget process is already making the challenges evident. -

Underlying these systemic complications is a set of problems that did not face the Second Republic after the 1979 handover from the military: Nigerians questioning and challenging the constitutional basis of the country's existence. Fundamental now is the nature of Nigeria's federalism. The constitution itself is farther removed from being the voice of "We, the people," thanks to amendments upon amendments made by successive military governments.\6\ And the federation is now composed of 36 states, not the 19 of the Second Republic, states having been created by dividing, and dividing further, ones delineated earlier. These problems, though related, need to be dealt with separately. -

The first is the more pressing. The demand to rethink Nigeria as a "corporate entity" (as Nigerians put it) was loud during the years after the annulled 1993 election. The call then, and with it the demand for a "Sovereign National Conference," came largely from the south- west of the country, though the south generally protested "Northern domination." More recently, as more and more groups in the country have felt aggrieved, the term "marginalized" has come to dominate political discourse, each group claiming it in the present, recent, or more distant past.\7\ Now there is growing agitation from many parts of the country (if less from the south-west) for some sort of national conference to address the constitutional issues. -

The pressure has increased, unexpectedly, because of an issue that posed a challenge even at the 1978 Constituent Assembly: namely, the institutionalization of Sharia law for Nigerian Muslims. Without getting into the intricacies of the debate, it is necessary to make two points: one, that Nigeria's Muslims have generally taken Sharia as "personal law," applying to such matters as divorce and inheritance; the connotations the term calls up in Western minds (chopping off hands of thieves, stoning adulterers, etc.) have not been accurate.\8\ -

Suddenly, though, the issue is front and center. Perhaps, like his colleagues, having little material benefit of democracy to show his constituents, the governor of recently-created Zamfara State in the north-west of the country, announced that he was going to introduce Sharia law in his state, and has since done so. This has provoked widespread reaction, largely favorable in the almost wholly Islamic population of his state, but often negative from elsewhere in the country, and everywhere producing controversy.

It raises issues of constitutionality: Nigeria is constitutionally a secular state, or, as some Nigerians prefer to put it, a state without an established religion. In fact both the 1979 and the 1999 constitutions seem unambiguous: "The Government of the Federation or of a State shall not adopt any religion as State Religion." \9\ How, then, can a unit of the federation have its own rules on officially adopting a religion? The recent fanfare suggests an extension of the Sharia courts both constitutions allow.\10\ It seems an obvious case for the Supreme Court.\11\ From my inevitably American perspective (but as one concerned with Nigerians' long-term welfare), I hope that the issue does indeed come before the highest court in the land. -

But it was clear to me in Nigeria a few weeks ago that the issue of constitutional legitimacy cannot be ignored, for the sake of the future of Nigeria and its democratic stability. Because of the legal questions trying to hold a "Sovereign National Conference" would raise, just sorting them out and creating an acceptable process will take a great deal of time and energy. Because the National Assembly, the appropriate body to amend the constitution, has other pressing matters it must deal with, leaving it, or its committees, to bring forward proposals one by one would not resolve matters as expeditiously as seems necessary. How, then, can such a crucial constitutional review take place with minimal disruption and distraction from acting to improve the day-to-day lives of Nigerians?

I would like to offer a suggestion, in all humility, for a possible way forward. Could the National Assembly, through the amendment procedure, consider taking as a package removal of all amendments that military governments have made to the 1979 constitution as approved by the 1978 Constituent Assembly? If such a package passed and the required number of state legislatures approved, the result would be a document that had unquestionably been crafted by the representatives of the "people of the Federal Republic of Nigeria." That document, then, could provide both a framework for legitimate governance and the basis from which committees of the National Assembly could start a further amendment process as set out in Section 9 of both the 1979 and 1999 constitutions. Whatever amendments -- including perhaps some that had been made previously in the national interest -- the current elected representatives of Nigerians chose to adopt would become part of a nationally accepted (may one hope even revered?) constitution. What is Nigeria's federation?

The second, related issue has to do with how to build a stable and equitable federation. It is well known and not surprising that the military ran the Federal Republic of Nigeria as a unitary state, unconcerned about the contradiction. But a federal system seemed appropriate for Nigeria, even to the British. The question would be, what are the appropriate units to federate? Independent Nigeria began with three (later four) regions, but voices to create more were heard in the 1950s, culminating in a British-organized commission, "On the Fears of Minorities and the Means of Allaying Them." It reported in 1958 that the fears in the three regions of the non-Yoruba, non-Igbo, non-Hausa living in them were real. But despite consistent testimony from "minority" witnesses, the commission concluded that creating more states wouldn't be the answer. In 1967, in part because of mounting demands -- but also as a tactical necessity as secession of the Eastern Region (as Biafra) loomed -- Nigeria became a country of 12 states. In 1976 the number would be increased to 19; and from the mid- 80s on, first to 21, then 30 and, by 1997, the 36 of today.

Even in the best of economic times, that number of states would have required outsized expenditures on administration alone. In these times, as newly-elected state governors were shocked to discover, the resources were simply not there for much of anything. The problem is that the states' means of support is the allocation of revenue -- almost entirely oil revenue -- from the center, to them and to local government.

The demand for more states has been driven by wanting a larger share of what Nigerians have long called "the national cake." When the country's earnings rested on cocoa and groundnuts and palm oil, each region had a share in producing them. The size of the three (later four) regions, and a revenue allocation formula that assigned 50 percent to "derivation," gave each of them its own sources of revenue. A federal division of responsibilities made sense, even while the minorities still protested their neglect.

Apart from the neglect, the situation is very different now. A few years back only the governments of Lagos State and the then-undivided Kano and Rivers States were conceivably able to meet their own costs. Now it is not even Lagos that can. Two thoughts follow: one, that there needs to be (as demanded) a review of and change in the revenue allocation formula. But the second is that, if Nigeria is to be a fully functioning federation, states also must take on greater responsibilities, both to raise revenue and to carry out functions constitutionally ascribed to them. This is not possible with 36 states that I have heard Nigerians describe as little more than local governments. Sooner or later the states will have to consider coming together into a few geographically (as opposed to ethnically) defined groupings -- six is the number usually mentioned -- to provide a more realistic division of labor with the center.\12\ What the mechanism will be to address this issue is, for now, not clear, nor is the will to address it yet there. -

The biggest problem transcends states and regional groupings. Nigerians now appear to believe that only when someone from their "own place" is in power will they be treated even-handedly. Demands for rotation of high offices, and even for dividing the country, rest on that assumption. But what Nigeria needs is not that at all: not one chance in six (or 36 or 406) to take all (as in "winner-take-all," a phrase much heard there). What Nigeria needs is determination by whoever is in power from whatever part of the country to deal fairly with all Nigerians.

Right now -- not sometime in the future -- it is critically important that, as a Nigerian businessman put it last month, "all parts of the country feel included: those who were in before and are now out; those who were out before and are still out; those who were out before and are now in." Until this is clearly articulated, accepted as the goal, and seen to be the case, tensions and problems described here will dominate Nigeria's political future. The Niger Delta

Immediate dangers lie in the Niger Delta. With its decades of neglect and environmental destruction now the object of international attention, its many localities have provided one flashpoint after another where oil companies work and, now, the all-important liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility is being built -- which, apart from generating needed additional revenue, will play a major role in ending the decades-long destructive and wasteful flaring of the gas associated with oil production that has so damaged communities in the area.

The region of the greatest ethnic, linguistic, and geographical complexity in a country where complexity is everywhere, the Delta poses arguably the greatest immediate challenge. Because its people regard themselves as having provided Nigeria's wealth for decades, with little coming back to them despite commissions on top of commissions and studies on top of studies, their anger has escalated. Combine this rage with the same high unemployment that plagues the country, especially among the young, add the demonstration effect of international NGO support for some local efforts, and the combustible nature of the mix is obvious. Unfortunately, some of the protest has moved beyond spontaneous violence to criminal acts, which the government will not tolerate.

For many reasons, the Delta has historically not functioned as an effective, unified political unit or even pressure group. This makes the problems all the more intractable now -- and yet there have to be solutions. Time has truly run out, and the sporadic and mounting violence imperils the very economic lifeline of the nation. If people in the oil-producing communities do not see tangible results on the ground, difficult as the terrain is, and see them soon, Nigerians and outsiders alike are likely to see even more violent outbursts there. When such incidents come, they must be handled with skill and care. But at the same time, the government cannot simply allow them to escalate, especially where actions become undeniably criminal, as with sabotage of pipelines and kidnapping.

These issues are too often posed as either matters of justice and fairness or of security. They are both, and more. It serves neither the people of the Delta nor Nigeria as a whole to reduce this highly complex crisis to any single issue with a simple solution. No one wants to see the use (or misuse) of force result in loss of life or limb -- the lives of local protesters, and of those trying to mediate disputes, and of expatriates or Nigerians employed in the oil industry all need protection. Failure to handle this problem, giving everyone a stake in its resolution at the earliest possible moment, could deal a severe blow to the hopes for Nigeria's democracy, economic growth and even (though I fervently hope not) international support. Nigeria will need understanding and forbearance on this matter, which, with resentments having built up for decades, will unfortunately be with us for a long time. the united states and nigeria: the past as prologue?

In 1978, I wrote an article for the Financial Times on US-Nigerian relations. The headline, "The dangers of falling in love," resonates today. I enjoy today's euphoria as much as anyone, but I cannot help fearing an equal and opposite reaction should things be perceived to be going wrong.

The years from 1977 to 1980 were the last time relations between the two countries showed the warmth and ease of communication evident today. Jimmy Carter was the first American president to go to Africa for its own sake (FDR had dropped by Liberia on his way back from Casablanca in 1944), and the country he chose to visit was Nigeria (again Liberia got a few hours en route). In those days, Nigeria worked with the US on issues that concerned them both, especially at the United Nations (and as it would continue to do, even in cooler times), for in those years Nigeria was on the Security Council.

Nigeria was of interest to the US then for some of the same reasons as now: its large population and potential market; its regional leadership -- and of course in those days of OPEC dominance, its oil. (Nigeria was for almost the whole of the 1970s the United States' second largest supplier, at times even in first place.) The program that returned Nigeria to democracy was a plus, but hardly the central consideration it has now become. For Americans, Nigerians seemed to be doing things right. Even if their assertiveness and independence on some matters was irritating, the US accepted the important role in which Nigerians cast themselves.

The oil market changed, and Nigeria mattered less. Then, as its economic fortunes declined and then plummeted, Nigerian ingenuity found new, and at times unsavory, channels. All of this soured relations further. American attention was elsewhere; in any case, when it turned to Africa it was to the south: Angola, Namibia, and of course South Africa itself.\13\ -

Meanwhile Nigeria's oft-postponed transition to civilian rule became less and less palatable as the world saw democracy "bustin' out all over." Babangida's annulment of the 1993 presidential election -- especially once it had been pronounced Nigeria's freest and fairest ever by international observers \14\ -- and its repressive aftermath, fueled Western anger in general and American anger in particular. There is no need to recount the policy debate of the time from then until the death of Sani Abacha in June 1998; suffice it to say that it took place in an Ice Age climate. -

I do not expect, and certainly do not want, this history to repeat itself. But now, far more than during the years when relations were last warm, Nigeria's need for more than words of encouragement and support is great. Nigeria's highest priority, as President Obasanjo makes clear, is debt relief. He argues for forgiveness, but Nigeria's oil resources disqualify it according to the current rules. The generous terms for rescheduling the Clinton Administration announced it would support last week will surely help in the near term, but could not the US work to change the rules so that more would become possible in the long term? It does not take a student of history (though the years following World War I are instructive) to know that a democracy that cannot satisfy the basic needs of its citizens is at risk.

Some of the Nigerian legislators who recently visited these shores took home with them serious concerns about what the United States can and will do to help. They fear that the intricacies of policy making here, and the difficulties of getting past the many constraints on relations, mean that little will be done. They have come to understand that measures taken during the Abacha regime in an effort to show disapproval and exert pressure are more difficult to remove than they were to put in place. But at the same time, they point to the continuous US demands that Nigeria democratize, and they say, "OK, now we've done it, and (even if we did it for our own sake) shouldn't you make a serious effort to help us, instead of explaining to us that whatever we propose is not possible because of this or that regulation or legislation?" us policy

In fact, the high degree of official interest since May 29th, supportive of the transition and welcome to Nigerians after their painful isolation, has raised their expectations, probably unrealistically, about what the United States will do to support democracy there. This matches what they expect from their new government. Obviously, the possibility of disappointment in both cases is considerable. Constraints

The most obvious constraint on US policy is financial. When the Clinton Administration promises to seek a three-fold increase in aid to Nigeria, that will still bring the total to less than $100 million. Such a sum, even if it should survive the budgetary process, will not go far in a country that has for years been spending $1 million a day on peacekeeping in its region. So, in the absence of the ability to commit more sizable financial resources from obvious sources (such as the aid budget), we must seek creative, imaginative alternative ways to find them. The planned US-Nigerian Joint Economic Partnership Committee, designed to coordinate the assistance to Nigeria from 18 federal agencies, may provide a useful forum for ideas about maximizing what is available and exploring new possibilities. Debt relief, aid, investment

Nigerians, even with their high hopes, already see a double standard when it comes to Africa's needs compared to almost anyone else's. This is not in Nigeria's case mainly a question of aid, though (as President Obasanjo commented) some aid may be necessary to create the wherewithal to trade. The president's pleas for debt relief and assistance in recovering stolen money are central to his hopes for Nigeria's ability to tackle its own problems financially. Nigeria has a history of paying its own way that goes back to its civil war and the oil boom that followed. It also has a history of generosity with its neighbors and others on the continent and in the Caribbean. Hence, the plea for relief on the debt burden.\15\ -

It is of course true that Nigeria does not meet HIPC or Paris Club conditions for forgiveness. But it should not be impossible, even as we acknowledge that so much is at stake, to find a creative solution to this problem. With sufficient will, the United States can press for conditions to be modified. What good does it do the countries of West Africa who do qualify for the forgiveness initiatives if Nigeria's indebtedness were to undermine its economic recovery and even its democracy? Its neighbors could not escape the consequences. Just as Nigeria's success will affect the entire African continent, so its failure (too horrible to contemplate) would prove devastating well beyond its borders.

Programs to support strengthening democratic institutions are important to be sure. But the most critical way to support democracy is to enable Nigerians to see improvement in their standard of living, and especially the creation of jobs. That requires resources. If Nigeria puts in place the conducive policies its president says it must, the US government can support frameworks and guarantees that give confidence to a hesitant, if interested, US private sector.

Apart from the economy, the military and the police need urgent attention and assistance. Already, through the Office of Transition Initiatives, the State Department is working on civil-military relations, with an important educational component on the role of the military in a democracy, subordinate to civilian authority.

It is scarcely possible to overstate how critical the military are to the success of Nigeria's democracy. We cannot wait to see how things go before decided to help President Obasanjo on that front. As I have mentioned, signs of unease are already appearing among junior officers. Among them, and senior officers too, expectations of the United States are high.

Essential to meeting those expectations and achieving the goals already described for a new Nigerian military, are both the IMET and the Expanded IMET programs. I realize that there are concerns about IMET for Nigeria. But -- based on what I have learned through years of meeting Nigerian officers, senior and junior (not least while working on regional security issues) -- I am convinced that making it possible for them to attend courses available through the IMET program can play a critical part in achieving the professionalization that comes only through education and professional training -- which, importantly, stresses studying, and internalizing, the role of the military in a democratic society. I know from talking to them that many Nigerians who have in the past attended such courses are notable for their commitment to a professional, not political, army. That some from Nigeria and elsewhere may not emerge with this commitment does not disprove the value of the training for the many who do.

I cannot stress too strongly how important it is to engage the military, as other segments of Nigerian society. I believe that now is not to soon to do so. What better way to show them the benefits of their new democracy than to bring some of the military here and give them the training to make them first-rate soldiers?

In addition, the US wants Nigeria to continue to participate in peacekeeping in West Africa and elsewhere (as it has done since the Congo in 1960). But in Sierra Leone, the ECOMOG troops found themselves with no peace to keep; facing brutality, they had to fight. They took casualties, as we have seen, and some of those surely resulted from lack of training. So this is an additional -- if you will, humanitarian -- reason to support IMET programs.

One final point: Nigerians today will not accept, as they have in the past, another military intervention in government. But it is essential to do everything possible to make even an attempt unthinkable over the longer run. Of great importance is the recent initiative, spearheaded by President Obasanjo, to deny recognition and international participation to countries in Africa whose elected governments are overthrown by the military.
