Abstract:
There is an on-going conflict between farmers and Fulani herdsmen in almost every nook and cranny of the Nigerian state. The conflict is of recent development. But despite its recency, the conflict has done great harm in Nigeria and to Nigerians. Sincere Nigerians within Nigeria, most especially, can attest to the blunt fact that the conflict has caused deluge of problems in virtually all ambits of life in the country. And to this effect, this paper employs primary and secondary data in bringing out of obscurity the economic, political, security and socio-cultural effects of the herdsmen-farmers conflict in Nigeria as well as the possible remedies to it.
