| dc.description.abstract | Every society has laws regulating the conduct of humans and non human elements within it. The level of law utility and adherence makes the difference. The essence of the state is to provide enable environments for all and sundry to operate without relapsing into the state of nature. There are laws regulating various arms of government, public ventures, private businesses and the extent of power individuals have or may use. There are various laws in Nigeria. More importantly, there are laws regulating land usage for crop farming and pastoralism. Just like every other laws, the conundrum is the level of awareness of these laws and the adherence. Therefore, the crises that emanate from farmers and herders in the Middle Belt of Nigeria are problems of working within the laws of crop farming and pastoralism. The social contract theory is used to explain the importance of laws and working within them. Mixed research design is used to collect data | en_US |
