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 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.

Affected parties have rejected proposed policies, including cattle colonies, cattle routes, grazing reserves, and Rural Grazing Area (RUGA) settlements.

Farmer-herder conflicts have become endemic in Nigeria, particularly its north-central region, since 2017.

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.

Purpose: The weight of overwhelming scientific evidence indicates that human-induced climate change is occurring in Nigeria, with the northern areas of the country faced with massive desertification. This has forced the northern herders down south in search of green pastures and on the farms of southerners who depend on these crops for a living. The resultant incessant clashes, this time with more sophisticated arms and weapons, take their toll in lives and property.

There is in both the theory and practice of early warning a clear preference for tracking and analysing proximate or immediate causes of conflict, sometimes referred to as ‘triggers’ or ‘accelerators’, over factors that might generate earlier warnings, such as shifts in deep-rooted, structural determinants of conflict. This preference reflects common assumptions made about the nature of structural factors (viz. that they are static and/or too indirectly linked to outcomes) and the relative ease with which less deeply rooted factors may be monitored.

Abstract:

Herder counter-productive activities-induced food insecurity is a threat to achieving the number 2 SDGs (zero hunger) in Nigeria. Although studies have been conducted to address the herder-farmer conflict challenge, however, the studies focused majorly on North central Nigeria while not many studies have been done in Southwestern Nigeria. Thus, this study examines herder counter-productive-induced food insecurity in Ekiti and Ondo states, Nigeria to add to the existing knowledge on this challenge. A multistage sampling procedure was used to select respondents for the study. Primary data were c

Abstract:

In order to curb the phenomenon of grassland degradation caused by human activity, China has begun the exploration of grassland eco-compensation, setting an example for the ecological protection of grasslands and sustainable use of resources around the world. At this stage, China has invested more than 170 billion yuan in grassland eco-compensation, benefiting 12 million farmer and herder households. The related research involves various perspectives, scopes, and methods, but lacks systematic reviewing. This study reviews the relevant theoretical and practical research and explores the connota
