The research design used was survey design. The research population was 300, whereas, a sample of 100 undergraduate students was drawn from the final year student using purposive sampling technique. A 22 items structural question was designed, validated and administered to the respondents. The reliability index of the instrument ranges from 0.87 to 0.89. The statistical tool used for data analysis was Pearson product moment correlation coefficient at 0.5 level of significance. The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between conflict management (r =69: p=00), Social Justice (r=.74: p=.00) and peaceful learning environment. Based on these findings, it was recommended amongst others that peace education should be promoted and encouraged amongst students and staff in institutions of learning in order to enhance educational and economic stability.
