Abstract

This study examines the role of traditional rulers in peacebuilding efforts in Northeast Nigeria, focusing on the states of Borno, Adamawa, Yobe, and Gombe using a qualitative case study approach. The case study design allows for an in-depth exploration of real-life interactions, contextual factors, and lived experiences within conflict-affected communities. The study's population includes representatives from local and international NGOs, traditional rulers (e.g., emirs, district heads, village chiefs), and community leaders involved in peace and reconciliation processes. A purposive sampling technique was used to select participants with relevant expertise and experience in peacebuilding efforts. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and key informant interviews (KIIs), providing rich qualitative insights into the roles and contributions of key stakeholders. Thematic analysis was employed to analyze the data, identifying recurrent themes and patterns related to peacebuilding and collaboration. The findings reveal the critical role of traditional rulers in conflict mediation and the positive impact of NGO-traditional ruler partnerships. Challenges such as resource limitations, security concerns, and the erosion of authority among younger generations were identified. The study highlights the importance of strengthening these collaborations to enhance peacebuilding outcomes in the region.

Abstract

This study examined the impact of Boko Haram insurgency on governance and socio-economic development in Borno State, Nigeria. Using a descriptive survey design, the study targeted 553 respondents comprising district heads, ward councillors, local government chairmen, and members of the State House of Assembly. A purposive sampling technique was employed to select 139 participants, and data was collected using a structured questionnaire and key informant interviews. Findings revealed that the insurgency significantly weakened state institutions, disrupted electoral processes, eroded public trust in governance, and fostered corruption and lawlessness. On the socio-economic front, the insurgency caused widespread destruction of infrastructure, disrupted trade and investment, hindered access to education and healthcare, displaced populations, and escalated poverty. The study concluded that the Boko Haram insurgency poses serious challenges to governance and socio-economic development in Borno State. Recommendations were made for strengthening state institutions, enhancing security operations, promoting economic recovery, supporting displaced persons, and initiating long-term peacebuilding programs to address the root causes of the conflict and foster sustainable development.

Abstract

The Northeast region of Nigeria has faced protracted armed conflict driven by the Boko Haram insurgency, its offshoots such as the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), and other forms of violence including banditry and communal clashes. These conflicts have precipitated widespread humanitarian crises, mass displacement, and profound socio-economic instability. In response, diverse peacebuilding initiatives have been deployed to weaken insurgent influence and restore regional stability. This article examines a range of peacebuilding efforts, encompassing government-led interventions, civil society and NGO programs, religious and community-based strategies, and international support mechanisms. Key approaches include grassroots dialogue, disarmament and demobilization programs, the rehabilitation of former insurgents, and youth empowerment schemes aimed at fostering community resilience. While notable progress has been achieved, peacebuilding in the region continues to face significant challenges such as persistent insecurity, intercommunal distrust, institutional fragility, and entrenched cultural barriers. The study emphasizes the need for a more inclusive, sustainable peacebuilding framework that integrates women and youth in peace processes and leverages indigenous conflict resolution practices. Recommendations include strengthening local peace infrastructures, improving monitoring and evaluation systems, enhancing inter-stakeholder collaboration, and investing in education and socio-economic development to sustain peace efforts. A comprehensive, well-resourced, and participatory strategy remains vital to disrupting cycles of violence and promoting long-term peace and social cohesion in Northeast Nigeria.
