Abstract
Nigeria's landscape is plagued with increased insecurity fueled by political violence and civil unrest. The political violence stems from ethnic chauvinism, power dominance by Nigerian politicians, and the military. The resulting consequence has driven investors and forced locals to find solace in other nations through mass migration. This chapter seeks to examine events surrounding key political violence in Nigeria and its causes. The authors address practical strategies to address the civil unrest in Nigeria. Policy implications for Nigeria's national security and sustainable development are suggested.
