The politics of competing for land-based resources in Nigeria's Middle Belt presently

Abstract

The main point of this article is that land disputes in Nigeria's Middle Belt are partly caused by politics.
It says people fight over groups, money, and connections. This paper shows the Middle Belt from
various points of view so that the reader can get a complete picture of it. There are many things on land
that people in the target area fight for, such as land, fields, water, trees, fishponds, and more. There are
direct sources of data, statistical proof, new books, and methods from different fields used in it. Of
course, this also takes into account the problems and effects that come up when politicians fight over
resources on land. People fight over the land in the Middle Belt because they need it to live. This is the
study's main point. The paper has some suggestions for how to fix the issues that the politics of
contestation have created.
