Weaponising insecurity: Farmer-herder conflicts, electoral campaigns, and the limits on electoral outcomes in Nigeria’s 2019 general elections
Conflicts between farmers and herders in Nigeria have had a profound impact on the country’s economy, politics, security, and humanitarian issues. Using instrumentalist theory, this paper, however, examines how the conflicts were used during the 2019 general elections campaigns, especially, by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the major opposition party, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). It argues that despite the instrumentalizat…

It argues that for the most part of the period under study, imperial and colonial governments accepted that metropolitan needs and conditions should dictate policies in the Nigerian oil palm industry. Nigeria was therefore incorporated into a vigorous extension of capitalism where its oil palm robustly…
Contesting exclusion in a multi-ethnic state: Rethinking ethnic nationalism in Nigeria
On the surface, ideas of a Nigerian state with common citizenry, free from ethnicity, religious bigotry and regionalism were pursued by Nigerian nationalists. Generally, a state united in common political practices, equal opportunities and under the same law was envisaged. However, the process leading to independence was characterised by ethnic nationalism. In the decolonisation era, group interest was reified and elevated above national struggle…
Nigerian inter-group relations: Emerging Trends and Challenges
The issue of inter-group relations in Nigeria is not new as it has attracted scholarly attention for some decades now. As recurring as this subject may have been to analysts of inter-group relations in Nigeria, it cannot be abandoned, because the dimension which it has taken threatens the existence of the country. This paper seeks to argue that there was a relative harmonious relationship among the people before colonialism in Nigeria, but this w…
