The nexus between ancestral owners of lands, migrants, settlers has to be couched in a legal constitutional framework to address the perspectives of each group,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAddressing the question of who are the combatants; who trains and arms them? Who provides security and judicial cover for them? As you may bear witness, how many persons have been successfully prosecuted in this country in crimes involving communal crisis?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe region should leverage on some of the experiences of other African countries that have been on this path before and how they managed the problem. We can take advantage of developments and trends in technology and innovation in agriculture, especially in terms of new ways of feeding farm animals. We must invest in livestock genetic technologies and the use of radio frequency identification for range management.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On his part, Olayemi Akinwunmi, vice-chancellor of the Federal University Lokoja, expressed optimism that the conference will provide recommendations on improving security in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou will agree with me that in the last decade, Nigeria has been besieged by devastating activities of insurgents, armed bandits, and violent non-state actors. In what appears to be a free-for-all, the entire country seems to be enmeshed in a theatre of violence, with an intensity that is unprecedented since Nigeria\u2019s return to civil rule in 1999,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmong other factors, this phenomenon has been compounded by the unchecked proliferation of arms, the porous state of the country\u2019s borders, the seeming lack of political will to bring perpetrators to justice, and the incessant agitations for resource control.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is my hope that the interactions and outcome of this conference will provide steps for the Nigerian government to resolve one of the most disturbing challenges that have confronted the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also said the university would be interested in leveraging on Falola\u2019s influence on seeking a partnership between the Federal University Lokoja and the University of Texas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPutting up a conference to celebrate professor Toyin Falola\u2019s contributions to scholarship in Africa is a worthy and noble course. In contemporary Africa, Toyin Falola has, more than any African scholar, put the narratives of the African story on global discourse and map. He has raised and nurtured young African scholars through numerous conferences organised within and outside the continent. Toyin Falola is a detribalised Nigerian, a great scholar and prolific writer whose wish and hope is for a united Nigeria where potentials are harnessed for the development of the continent,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd finally, our university is a growing university desiring partnership on the global stage. Therefore, we want to leverage on the generosity and philanthropic kindness of professor Toyin Falola to see the potential of our students and budding young scholars and consider Federal University Lokoja as an affiliation to the University of Texas at Austin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is the hope of the university community that your presence will benefit our students and academics through post-doctoral opportunities, among other exchange linkages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Participants at the conference were drawn from Africa, Europe and North America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Association of Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian Universities has admonished the federal government to learn from the experiences of countries with similar experiences on banditry.
