It concludes that the tripodal security challenges can be transformed into instruments for nation and state building. The paper therefore recommends the provision of homeland for nomadic Fulanis, an election of an Igbo President, as well as the restructuring of the polity as recommended in the 2014 National Conference Report. It also recommends the promotion of the Rule of Law, Justice, Equity and Fairness in the polity, especially in the handling of repentant terrorists and the rehabilitation of victims of these security challenges.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Central and Eastern European African Studies}, author={Okon, Enoch Ndem}, year={2023}, month={Jun.}, pages={17–35} }
