Research finding has attributed the inces­sant crises in Nigeria, especially Northern Nigeria to failure of governments to address economic and social issues since after the first re­public.

In a presentation yesterday in Abuja, the Inter-Religious Peace building in Northern Nigeria (IPNN) in a docu­ment entitled Qualitative Re­search Report came out with findings responsible for vio­lence experienced in North­ern Nigeria, especially the Middle Belt area.

Jaye Gaskiya, Human Rights activist and civil soci­ety operator said the violence that is being experienced now had built up over the decades. He attributed it to failure of governance at all levels, and the absence of governance in communities.

He said the situation bred citizens that were alienated from society and made the society targets, so they acted in a manner that human lives had little of no value to them.

Gaskiya said to get to the root of the crises, govern­ment must return to the bases which is good governance; mobilise the citizens to per­form functions and take re­sponsibility for growth.

He added that over the years, the Agricultural poli­cies were crop based; further alienating livestock producers and that as the economy got worse, anger and intolerance grew.

The rights activist said that these findings were research based and empirical, so poli­cy makers must take it serious to act upon to achieve results.

On her part, Dr. Sumaye Hamza, a permanent Secre­tary in the Ministry of Wom­en Affairs and Social Devel­opment in Plateau State who was also a member of the re­search team said we must go back to the scratch of good parenting to raise citizens who will be good members of the society.
