class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">This study investigates the governance of natural resources to promote socioeconomic and people-centred development in Nigeria. The paper relied on secondary sources of data, focusing on the three main variables: conflict, politics and power. Nigeria is endowed with abundant natural resources, which accounts for about 65% of total tax revenue, driven mostly by an increase in export earnings from the oil and gas sector. Most resource-related conflicts are implicated by the inequitable distribution of benefits accruing to resources. The State and elite, in alliance with foreign corporations, enjoy the benefits of the exploited resource. Host-communities face the debilitating negative environmental impacts and the discrepancy between indigenous traditional laws and state laws that define ownership of natural resources in a federal but unitary state has led to controversial relations among states in Nigeria. The paper took an extensive look at the politics of natural resource extraction and governance in Nigeria and explored the themes through which the causative relationship between natural resources and conflicts can be differentiated. It noticed the political economy of natural resources as embedded within the broader global power relations. The paper concludes that regulation must be anchored to elements of good governance, especially democracy, rule of law, transparency and accountability, as well as efficient and equitable management of resource revenues.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="049089abebcbd797ac4afbf3d1b39f68" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":110537431,"asset_id":113624577,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/110537431/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="113624577"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="113624577"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 113624577;

The paper relied on secondary sources of data, focusing on the three main variables: conflict, politics and power. Nigeria is endowed with abundant natural resources, which accounts for about 65% of total tax revenue, driven mostly by an increase in export earnings from the oil and gas sector. Most resource-related conflicts are implicated by the inequitable distribution of benefits accruing to resources. The State and elite, in alliance with foreign corporations, enjoy the benefits of the exploited resource. Hostcommunities face the debilitating negative environmental impacts and the discrepancy between indigenous traditional laws and state laws that define ownership of natural resources in a federal but unitary state has led to controversial relations among states in Nigeria. The paper took an extensive look at the politics of natural resource extraction and governance in Nigeria and explored the themes through which the causative relationship between natural resources and conflicts can be differentiated. It noticed the political economy of natural resources as embedded within the broader global power relations. The paper concludes that regulation must be anchored to elements of good governance, especially democracy, rule of law, transparency and accountability, as well as efficient and equitable management of resource revenues.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="7e477f77de458b6701daadf4380fd22c" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":100567133,"asset_id":99493058,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/100567133/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="99493058"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="99493058"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 99493058;

Emphasis was placed on the strategic implication of this menace, and this was done with a focus on Nigeria. To carry out the study effectively, secondary data was used. The rising global food security crisis is occasioned by rising global food prices. This is also accompanied by scarcity of staple food sources. It was discovered that there was indeed a rising global food security crisis, and that the strategic implication of this is rarely investigated. Causes of global food security crisis include global high cost of energy, use of bio fuel based energy, increase in global population and demand for food, climate change, under investment in agriculture production, armed conflict corruption and bad government in Africa. The strategic implication of food security included general insecurity health problems migration environmental degradation etc. The outbreak of COVID-19 brought to the knowledge of all that a combination of short-term responses and long term investment driver of foodinsecurity. It was concluded that there is indeed a rising global food security crisis. It was therefore recommended that the United States (U.S.) and other donor countries should make agriculture and rural development is priority in its internal assistance programmes. It was also recommended that since global security challenges, such as terrorism are linked to food security crisis and poverty in general, current international and local efforts should include measures that put food on every citizens' table by way of frustrating and eradication of terrorism, recommendation also includes the development of practical strategies to improve agricultural practices such as food storage should be researched and developed being a major challenge faced by developing countries.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="84977ff0d84a6fdc56c41deadaf5546a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":93490154,"asset_id":89736690,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/93490154/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="89736690"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="89736690"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 89736690;

This paper aimed at drawing the attention of the policy maker's attention to the importance and need to create values from rural landscape and preserve the existing biodiversity of the local environment. People do first occupy a space that are transformed into a meaningful place or given a sense of place vital for navigating something like an abstract geometric space. Often time, this captures our live experience of the landscape. The global socio-ecological took roots from moral crisis emerging from unsustainable consumption and a new paradigm of sustainable development directed at holistic human development. As more than half of the Nigeria's rural population live below poverty line speaks volumes that much needs to be done. Policies on ecosystem services need review for adequate protection for sustainable service delivery. Above all, provide opportunity for all to have synergies that promote the development of rural organization such as community-driven cooperative to enhance investment in essential infrastructures and services, and recognize the role of urban areas in fostering rural development.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="61418f483923fdc077a15e81c4801f8a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":93490125,"asset_id":89736686,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/93490125/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="89736686"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="89736686"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 89736686;

To achieve this, a process approach was followed in which secondary data, sourced from text books, articles in journals and the internet were utilized. The study revealed that communities in Africa had little or no role to play in the governance of their environment. The study showed that government alone played this role which has been seen to be ineffective considering the extent of air pollution, oil spillage and deforestation in the urban and rural environments in the continent. On the basis of this, the study therefore recommended among others things that, participatory approach to environmental governance including the government, the private sector; multinationals and the community were required to effectively harness the environment.

These lead to structural weaknesses and even breaking points in cities that are not adequately prepared for the uncontrolled influx of rural populations seeking to improve their lives. The growing consensus is that this situation poses one of the major threats to environmental security in the developing world, and that they impact the poor and therefore the most food insecure to the greatest extent. Urbanization is one of the most significant trends in Africa at present, with rural populations migrating at unprecedented rates to urban hubs in search of employment and economic growth. The effect of this includes, among others, the growing of slums, pressure on infrastructure and the social problems, including security that accompany unemployment in an urban setting. ...</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="8705737ced1bc3ec764284e858de0eb3" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":77335110,"asset_id":65961374,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/77335110/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="65961374"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="65961374"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 65961374;

Main while, countries' adaptation plans are largely state driven and top-down in approach, but climate change is experienced locally, therefore, climate change can be effectively addressed through the involvement of civil society organizations (CSOs). The main driver of the climate change, namely, population and economic growth are global and the most vulnerable to climate change are not those most responsible for its causes. There is the impending fear of how to meet the increasing need of scarce resources such as water, and inadequate supply of fresh water will threaten the health of the population and trigger infectious disease outbreak in the future. Nigeria's population depends on agriculture which is rain fed for food. So far, access to climate information at the local level is absent or nonexistent, and livelihoods are highly dependent on climate conditions. This paper presents some roles that CSOs can play to promote climate change integration into planning and policy-making processes in order to achieve the incorporation of long-term climate risks, through the promotion of greater equity in power relations between the State and the population, both at the national and local level. This can be accomplished through accountability processes that ensure greater and better interaction, not only with the population, but with government entities. Climate change has the potential to undermine the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and generate new questions regarding security, and has increasingly threatens economic investments.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="5748bfca6daf8d5e43d2d19840ea7dc8" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":38744152,"asset_id":15623654,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38744152/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="15623654"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="15623654"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 15623654;

The paper concludes that regulation must be anchored to elements of good governance, especially democracy, rule of law, transparency and accountability, as well as efficient and equitable management of resource revenues.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="7e477f77de458b6701daadf4380fd22c" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":100567133,"asset_id":99493058,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/100567133/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="99493058"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="99493058"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 99493058;

Emphasis was placed on the strategic implication of this menace, and this was done with a focus on Nigeria. To carry out the study effectively, secondary data was used. The rising global food security crisis is occasioned by rising global food prices. This is also accompanied by scarcity of staple food sources. It was discovered that there was indeed a rising global food security crisis, and that the strategic implication of this is rarely investigated. Causes of global food security crisis include global high cost of energy, use of bio fuel based energy, increase in global population and demand for food, climate change, under investment in agriculture production, armed conflict corruption and bad government in Africa. The strategic implication of food security included general insecurity health problems migration environmental degradation etc. The outbreak of COVID-19 brought to the knowledge of all that a combination of short-term responses and long term investment driver of foodinsecurity. It was concluded that there is indeed a rising global food security crisis. It was therefore recommended that the United States (U.S.) and other donor countries should make agriculture and rural development is priority in its internal assistance programmes. It was also recommended that since global security challenges, such as terrorism are linked to food security crisis and poverty in general, current international and local efforts should include measures that put food on every citizens' table by way of frustrating and eradication of terrorism, recommendation also includes the development of practical strategies to improve agricultural practices such as food storage should be researched and developed being a major challenge faced by developing countries.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="84977ff0d84a6fdc56c41deadaf5546a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":93490154,"asset_id":89736690,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/93490154/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="89736690"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="89736690"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 89736690;

This paper aimed at drawing the attention of the policy maker's attention to the importance and need to create values from rural landscape and preserve the existing biodiversity of the local environment. People do first occupy a space that are transformed into a meaningful place or given a sense of place vital for navigating something like an abstract geometric space. Often time, this captures our live experience of the landscape. The global socio-ecological took roots from moral crisis emerging from unsustainable consumption and a new paradigm of sustainable development directed at holistic human development. As more than half of the Nigeria's rural population live below poverty line speaks volumes that much needs to be done. Policies on ecosystem services need review for adequate protection for sustainable service delivery. Above all, provide opportunity for all to have synergies that promote the development of rural organization such as community-driven cooperative to enhance investment in essential infrastructures and services, and recognize the role of urban areas in fostering rural development.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="61418f483923fdc077a15e81c4801f8a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":93490125,"asset_id":89736686,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/93490125/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="89736686"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="89736686"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 89736686;

The main objectives were to identify prevailing environmental problems in Nigeria and examine the community’s participation in its management. To achieve this, a process approach was followed in which secondary data, sourced from text books, articles in journals and the internet were utilized. The study revealed that communities in Africa had little or no role to play in the governance of their environment. The study showed that government alone played this role which has been seen to be ineffective considering the extent of air pollution, oil spillage and deforestation in the urban and rural environments in the continent. On the basis of this, the study therefore recommended among others things that, participatory approach to environmental governance including the government, the private sector; multinationals and the community were required to effectively harness the environment.

These lead to structural weaknesses and even breaking points in cities that are not adequately prepared for the uncontrolled influx of rural populations seeking to improve their lives. The growing consensus is that this situation poses one of the major threats to environmental security in the developing world, and that they impact the poor and therefore the most food insecure to the greatest extent. Urbanization is one of the most significant trends in Africa at present, with rural populations migrating at unprecedented rates to urban hubs in search of employment and economic growth. The effect of this includes, among others, the growing of slums, pressure on infrastructure and the social problems, including security that accompany unemployment in an urban setting. ...</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="8705737ced1bc3ec764284e858de0eb3" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":77335110,"asset_id":65961374,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/77335110/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="65961374"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="65961374"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 65961374;

Main while, countries' adaptation plans are largely state driven and top-down in approach, but climate change is experienced locally, therefore, climate change can be effectively addressed through the involvement of civil society organizations (CSOs). The main driver of the climate change, namely, population and economic growth are global and the most vulnerable to climate change are not those most responsible for its causes. There is the impending fear of how to meet the increasing need of scarce resources such as water, and inadequate supply of fresh water will threaten the health of the population and trigger infectious disease outbreak in the future. Nigeria's population depends on agriculture which is rain fed for food. So far, access to climate information at the local level is absent or nonexistent, and livelihoods are highly dependent on climate conditions. This paper presents some roles that CSOs can play to promote climate change integration into planning and policy-making processes in order to achieve the incorporation of long-term climate risks, through the promotion of greater equity in power relations between the State and the population, both at the national and local level. This can be accomplished through accountability processes that ensure greater and better interaction, not only with the population, but with government entities. Climate change has the potential to undermine the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and generate new questions regarding security, and has increasingly threatens economic investments.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="5748bfca6daf8d5e43d2d19840ea7dc8" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":38744152,"asset_id":15623654,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38744152/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="15623654"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="15623654"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 15623654;
