Politics of Fear and Terorism: The Emancipation of Nigeria: Why terrorism and fear rule Nigerian politics today (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798294562212)

Politics of Fear and Terrorism: The Emancipation of Nigeria is a bold and timely exploration of one of the most pressing challenges of the 21st century-terrorism and political fear in Nigeria. With deep insight and scholarly precision, author Nwike Kingsley Analikwu examines how fear has been used as a weapon of control, suppression, and manipulation in Nigeria's political landscape, while dissecting the roots, structures, and consequences of terrorism from both local and global perspectives.

This groundbreaking work weaves historical context, political theory, security analysis, and lived realities into a compelling narrative that exposes how terrorism, banditry, and violent extremism have undermined national unity, governance, and social trust. From the insurgency in the North East to the banditry crisis in Zamfara and the rise of illegal mining syndicates, the book presents case studies that reflect the systemic failure of institutions-and proposes bold solutions for Nigeria's emancipation.

Inside this book, you will discover:

The origins and evolution of terrorism in Nigeria

The psychological and political impact of fear in governance

The role of international actors and global counter terrorism strategies

Insightful analyses of Boko Haram, ISWAP, Fulani militias, and bandits

A detailed look at the use of technology, intelligence, and advanced communication to fight terrorism

Whether you're a student, policymaker, academic, security professional, or concerned citizen, Politics of Fear and Terrorism offers a profound and eye-opening journey through Nigeria's darkest chapters-and a hopeful path toward freedom, justice, and reform.
