CONFLICTS AND POLITICAL INSTABILITY IN NIGERIA: A CRITICAL DISCOURSE

Abstract: Conflicts and political instability are common phenomena in developing societies like Nigeria, a situation that affects peaceful co-existence and the attainment of sustainable development. Political instability arises as a result of the inability of government and the society in general to adequately address the grievances of the population or particular subset of that population. The focus of this paper is to critically examine the phenomenon of conflict and political instability in Nigeria. It observes that the occurrence of conflicts in any society could escalate and becomes more violent, leading to wanton destruction of lives and properties. The paper contends that in spite of the structural deficits and some other problems, the country still holds a better prospect that accentuate instability to be completely attenuated.
