dc.description.abstractContributing to instability in Nigeria today are conflicts arising from competition by various resource users, including movements of herds for pasture across the country. Before now, trans-humane has served these regions over the centuries, it now presents enormous security and development challenges in Nigeria. Climate change leading to the shrinking of the lake-chad and rapid urbanization across grazing fields has triggered a cycle of violence. The occasional herders farmer’s conflict has exacerbate and other forms of conflict continue to evolve across this fault line. The character of this conflict in Nigeria now includes cattle rustling arson, inter-ethnic and religious killing which has led to loss of lives and whole community sacked. In the prevailing security situation there is the concern that violent extremist groups and insurgents may try to leverage on the conflict involving pastoralist. This work, seeks to study the major causes of herders-farmers conflict in Nigeria with a view to proffering solutions to the problem. In doing this, I will employ a qualitative method of research. We are using conflict theory as our theoretical frame work. Our findings will be critically analyzed and solutions will be suggested on how to mitigate the incessant conflict between herders-farmers in Nigeria.en_US
