本文旨在探讨尼日利亚纳萨拉瓦州牧民/农民冲突，以期了解其性质、原因、动态、影响和影响。本文从政治生态学的视角出发，通过对一级和二级资料的定性分析，认为这些冲突是在一个生态稀缺和生计不安全的环境中为竞争性生存和生存而进行的殊死斗争。该文件指出，气候变化现象加剧了这种情况，其动态往往加剧了世界各地的自然资源冲突。该文件认为，所审查的冲突局势对可持续的社会进步，甚至对尼日利亚的国家安全都是不利的。

By way of qualitative analysis of primary and secondary sources, anchored on the political ecology perspective, the paper posits the conflicts have been informed by the desperate struggle for competitive survival and subsistence in an environment characterized by ecological scarcity and livelihood insecurity. The paper observes that the situation has been exacerbated by the phenomenon of climate change, whose dynamics tend to have been aggravating natural resource conflicts across the world. The paper submits that the conflict situation under review portends negatively for sustainable societal progress, nay national security in Nigeria.
