Arms and ammunition from at least 21 different nations,
including the United States, Israel, Iran and 18 other countries are used in
the farmer-herder crisis in Nigeria, a report by SB Morgan (SBM) Intelligence
says.
The report, according to TheCable, entitled, ‘Report on
small arms, mass atrocities and migration in Nigeria’, was funded by the Open
Society Initiative for West Africa (OSIWA). Using secondary sources of data
including newspapers and research papers, it examined the movement of arms and
its relationship with mass atrocities as well as migration within Nigeria.
Findings from the
report revealed that proliferation of small arms in southern and northern
Nigeria is responsible for the mass atrocities in the different parts of the
country.
In the southern region, it said instances of such atrocities
“include communal clashes, cultism, kidnappings, ethnic and religious clashes
as well as militancy in the Niger Delta”.
“Southern Nigeria has established local arms manufacturing
sector and there is also significant importation/smuggling from international
sources,” it said. The report said nations in East Europe and Asia “are the
major sources of illegal arms in southern Nigeria”.
On northern Nigeria, the report identified the rise in small
arms, mass unemployment as well as corruption as the cause of the high rate of
criminality and violence in the region.
“Local manufactured arms, which are normally fabricated in
small-scale factories, without legal permits, contribute to a large percentage
of arms in circulation in northern Nigeria (especially in north central
Nigeria,” it said. It said in Benue and Plateau states “locally made weapons
are estimated to be used in over 50% of crimes committed”.
The report revealed that Nigeria’s porous borders with
neighbouring countries like Chad and Niger Republic facilitate the sourcing of
weapons externally in the northern region.
“Ammunition from at
least 21 different nations have been used in the herder versus farmer conflicts
in north central Nigeria (some of these nations include Israel, Poland, Brazil,
Iran, USA, Czech Republic, Algeria and Egypt,” it said.
The report added that the mass atrocities have led to rise
in the number of internally displaced people (IDPs) in the country. Vanguard
