Abstract

Purpose: This study examines civil-military cooperation as a strategic architecture for strengthening counterterrorism and social cohesion in Africa, moving the concept away from its conventional treatment as an occasional military outreach function. Research Methodology: The study adopts a qualitative documentary research design and thematic analysis of African Union, United Nations, United Nations Development Programme, Institute for Economics and Peace, regional security, and peer-reviewed scholarly sources published mainly between 2021 and 2026, interpreted through Human Security Theory and the Whole-of-Society Security Approach. Results: Civil-military cooperation strengthens counterterrorism through community-based early warning, intelligence generation, civilian protection, humanitarian access, strategic communication, prevention of violent extremism, women and youth participation, border-community partnership, and post-operation stabilisation, while its effectiveness is constrained by mistrust, institutional fragmentation, human-rights concerns, weak coordination, politicisation, limited civilian capacity, and inadequate financing. Conclusions: Civil-military cooperation should be institutionalised as a core counterterrorism capability rather than an occasional outreach activity, supported by integrated civil-military structures, stronger community-security partnerships, civilian-protection mechanisms, joint training, and regional coordination. Limitations: The reliance on secondary documentary sources restricts causal claims and field-level verification. Contributions: The study proposes an integrated four-stage civil-military cooperation model spanning prevention, response, stabilisation, and recovery, and positions specialised institutions such as the Centre for Civil-Military Cooperation as bridges between security establishments and society.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the constitutional and statutory boundaries that govern the public display of suspects by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in Nigeria, with particular attention to the rights to dignity, personal liberty, fair hearing, privacy and the presumption of innocence, and to the sanctions and remedies that arise where such display becomes unlawful. Methodology: The study adopts a qualitative documentary and doctrinal research design, drawing on the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the EFCC Act, the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015, the Anti-Torture Act 2017, judicial decisions, institutional publications and recent national and international scholarship, supported by comparative analysis of the United Kingdom, Germany, Kenya and South Africa. Results: The findings show that investigative authority to photograph and identify a suspect does not automatically confer an unrestricted power to publicize that image, that public display can implicate several constitutional rights simultaneously, and that Nigerian law already provides declaratory, injunctive and compensatory remedies whose practical accessibility nonetheless remains limited. Conclusions: A credible anti-corruption mandate and the protection of suspects' rights are complementary rather than competing objectives, and a rights-based publicity protocol would strengthen both institutional legitimacy and public trust. Limitations: The documentary design does not capture primary empirical data from affected suspects, EFCC officers or the courts. Contributions: The study offers a comparative doctrinal framework and practical recommendations that can guide EFCC communication policy, judicial reasoning and legislative reform.
Climate Change, Resource Scarcity, and Green Militarization in East and Central Africa Muhammad Auwal Sule

Abstract

Purpose: This article examines how climate change and resource scarcity interact with the securitization of biodiversity conservation in East and Central Africa, a process increasingly described in the literature as green militarization, and assesses its human rights consequences for indigenous and resource dependent communities in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Research Methodology: The study applies a qualitative documentary research design, drawing on peer reviewed journal literature, international legal instruments, human rights reports, and conservation policy documents published mainly between 2021 and 2026, analyzed thematically around climate pressure, securitization, militarization, community rights, and accountability. Results: The findings show that climate and resource pressures create genuine conservation and security challenges, yet militarized responses frequently deepen land dispossession, restrict customary resource access, produce physical abuse, weaken community participation, and erode institutional trust when proportionality, oversight, and consent safeguards are absent. Conclusions: Effective conservation security should be judged not only by reductions in poaching but by legality, participation, indigenous rights, ranger accountability, and access to remedy. Limitations: The analysis relies on secondary documentary evidence across four purposively selected countries and does not generate new primary field data. Contributions: The article proposes an integrated rights based conservation security model and extends political ecology and human security scholarship into an underexamined regional context.
ECOWAS Standby Force and Civilian Protection: ECOMOG Social-Legal Lessons for Future West African Interventions Adams Adah Otakwu
Annals of Justice and Humanity Vol. 6 No. 1 (2026): December
Publisher : Goodwood Publishing

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the relationship between the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Standby Force (ESF) and civilian protection, drawing on the historical experience of the ECOWAS Monitoring Group (ECOMOG) in Liberia and Sierra Leone to inform the design of future regional interventions in West Africa. Methodology: The study adopts a qualitative documentary research design that applies comparative historical and policy analysis to ECOWAS legal instruments, regional policy documents, peace support frameworks, institutional reports and relevant scholarly literature, guided by Human Security Theory and Responsibility to Protect Theory. Results: The findings show that ECOMOG demonstrated the capacity of regional military action to contain violence and restore constitutional order, but also exposed recurrent weaknesses in mandate clarity, civilian harm mitigation, command responsibility, humanitarian coordination and perceived impartiality that continue to shape contemporary reform debates. Conclusions: Ongoing reforms, including the 2025 ESF Training Policy and the 2026 Protection of Civilians Policy process, offer a credible institutional pathway for embedding civilian protection into mandate design, operational planning and accountability structures. Limitations: The study relies on secondary documentary sources rather than field-based or survey data, which restricts its ability to capture frontline operational experience. Contributions: The article contributes an integrated social and legal framework treating civilian protection as a core measure of regional peace support effectiveness rather than an incidental humanitarian concern.
