    YOUTHS CAIMPAIGN FOR PEACE AND NONVIOLENCE

    INTRODUCTION: As we campaign for President Goodluck E. Jonathan and PDP, we also campaign for peace and nonviolence during and after election. We adopted three principles in achieving nonviolence in the Niger Delta region.

   The issues of achieving Peace and Nonviolence in the Niger Delta region can only be successfully tackled by the inhabitants of the area. It is a collective responsibility to remove all ethnic, political, psychological and socio-cultural barriers militating against the development of our communities.

Peace is an indispensable component in attaining sustainable development. This is because every development effort could be destroyed within a short time in case of violence, terrorism and war. In such cases the youths are usually the militant groups co-opted to execute violence while the women and children suffer the devasting effects of violence, wars and terrorism.

According to the new Webster’s dictionary, peace is defined as a state of friendliness or calm. It is a period of tranquility and quietness characterized by normalcy and friendly co-existence. Peace is the antecedent of war.

     Non Violence is not the Opposite of Violence, negative peace and peacefulness without justice is the opposite of violence. Non violence is the antidote to violence and negative peace.
