Community-Based Border Policing: Towards Complementing Border Surveillance Strategy in Countering Human Trafficking on the Nigeria-Niger Border
Even though the Nigeria-Niger border is a significant gateway for human trafficking to Europe, it has received limited scholarly attention. The study used ethnographic and documentary methods to argue for adopting community-based border policing (CBBP) on the Nigeria-Niger border to complement border surveillance strategy (BSS). Despite the reliance on surveillance strategies, crimes like human trafficking have persisted on the Nigeria-Niger bord…

Informal–Formal Healthcare Services Delivery Nexus in Nigeria’s Urban Slums: A Reconnaissance Study
Urban slums are human habitats with poor habitation qualities that are vulnerable to infectious diseases and public health crises.

This study examined the nature of relationship between informal and formal healthcare services providers in urban slums and explored opportunities for strengthening collaborations between them. R…
Multinational Joint Task Force's counterinsurgency in the Lake Chad Basin and the consequences of Chadian exit for the Northeast, Nigeria
The Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF), comprising soldiers from the Lake Chad Basin countries (Cameroon, Chad, Niger, Nigeria, and Benin), has been countering insurgency in the region since 2015. Frictional relationships resulting from mutual distrust affected the commitments of MNJTF contributing countries in counterinsurgency operations in Lake Chad. Chad, notably, considered itself an arrowhead in the counterinsurgency due to the laxity o…
Engagement in licit ventures by terrorist organisations and terrorism financing in the Lake Chad region
Despite efforts by countries in the Lake Chad region and their partners to suffocate the insurgency in the region, insurgents have continued to execute deadly attacks on civilians and military positions. Extant literature shows that the insurgency is sustained by factors like ideology, poverty, politics, arms proliferation, money laundering, external influence, among others. Not much has been done by scholars to establish the linkage between proc…
Civil Society Organizations and electoral credibility in Nigeria
Electoral malpractices undermine the legitimacy of the electoral process, the general acceptability of electoral outcomes, and challenges the democratization process in Nigeria. This study examines the role of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in the electoral process and its impact on the credibility of electoral outcomes in Nigeria, with emphasis on the 2019 general election. With evidence collected from documentary sources, we argue that the …
Nigeria’s Response to Covid-19: Lockdown Policy and Human Rights Violations
The rapid escalation of the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) elicited varying degrees of responses from governments. The escalation and community spread of the COVID-19 pandemic despite initial responses resulted in a lockdown strategy in some countries. Nigeria embraced a lockdown policy, albeit with some socioeconomic stimulus measures to cushion the resultant economic hardship. The inadequacy of the stimulus measures led to lockdown violations a…
Extortionate policing and the futility of Covid-19 pandemic nationwide lockdown in Nigeria: Insights from the South East Zone
The emergence of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in November 2019 has nearly brought the world to a halt. Recording her first COVID-19 case on 27 February 2020, the Nigerian government's default response to the pandemic was to lock down major parts of the country, among other measures. Despite the nationwide lockdown, inter-state travel continued unabated as many travellers bribed their way through the different checkpoints mounted by security a…
