Abstract:
This paper aims to prove that banditry exists across Nigeria’s geopolitical regions, evolving into distinct characteristics that define the security situations in these regions. The objectives of the study are to examine the patterns of banditry in Nigeria’s geopolitical regions and to suggest methods to curb it. Relying on secondary data and systematic analysis, the study’s findings demonstrate the various ways that banditry has taken shape throughout Nigeria’s geopolitical regions. These include insurgency in the North-East, ethnic/religious conflict between Hausa farmers and Fulani herders

Abstract:
Farmer-herder conflicts have become rather widespread throughout West Africa and constitute a threat to peace and stability in many countries. This paper examines the management of farmer-herder conflicts in the Volta basin of Ghana. Using information gathered from five communities through the use of participant observation, interviews and focus group discussions, the paper describes the increasing migration of farmers, herders, fishermen and traders into the Volta basin area. The increasing population has accentuated conflicts between farmers and herders as the two groups compete for the use

Abstract:
In Ghana, farmer-herder conflicts have become widespread and increasingly assume a violent dimension. Competition over access to and use of land and water resources is at the center of the conflicts. However, competition does not automatically result in conflicts. The conflicts are driven by triggering activities of both farmers and herders. This study identifies triggers of farmer-herder conflicts in the Upper West Region of Ghana and tests the level of agreement among key stakeholder groups on the triggers of these conflicts. This is an important step in determining approaches to farmer-herd

Abstract:
In a bid to achieve sustainable peace between farmers and herders, there is a need to consider the interplay between climate change and the farmer-herder conflicts, which is currently a critical challenge in Nigeria. Against this background, this study investigates the impact of climate change-induced migration on farmer-herder conflicts, analyzing socio-economic and environmental drivers while proposing adaptive strategies for sustainable peace. This study, using a Socio-ecological System theory and data collected through secondary sources, examines how climate change has significantly impact

Abstract:
In recent times, the occurrence of conflicts between herders and farmers with unexplainable attacks by the Fulani herdsmen in Nigerian states has become worrisome; threatening the unity and security of the country with the fear of war and ethnic invasion. Governmental attempts to proffer solutions have not helped matters. Affected parties have rejected proposed policies, including cattle colonies, cattle routes, grazing reserves, and Rural Grazing Area (RUGA) settlements. Findings revealed that the reasons for rejections and counter reactions against policies are related to the fear of ethnic

Abstract:
Farmer–herder conflicts deepen the incidence of poverty and worsen the wellbeing of both farming and herding households in Sub-Saharan Africa. In order to cope with the effects of conflict on their livelihoods, households adopt various adaptation strategies. This paper assesses the effects of adopting conflict adaptation strategies on the multidimensional poverty and subjective wellbeing of farmers and herders using primary data from 500 households (400 farming households and 100 herding households) from two farmer–herder conflict hotspot districts in Ghana. Specifically, the paper analyses th

Abstract:
Farmer-herder conflicts have become endemic in Nigeria, particularly its north-central region, since 2017. While various disciplines in the humanities, social sciences and even the sciences have given this problem attention, this paper is an attempt to philosophicallyunderstand the issues involved in the crisis. Given the role of the cattle and the farmland to the material survival of the herder and the farmer respectively, discourses on these clashes have been dominated by the perception that they are struggles for material survival couched in religious terms. That is, these clashes have been

Abstract:
Land policies in Africa have often been predicated on marginalising or extinguishing customary land tenure systems in favour of introducing more 'efficient' formal systems of individual titling and registration of land. This approach has been marked by its frequent failure and high cost. In Tanzania, recently introduced land laws instead now recognise customary systems and set out a basis for incorporating them in a village-based land tenure system. Yet there is growing apprehension that placing an emphasis on recognising customary practices will compound me growing trend of social differentia
