Beschreibung: This study explores the intricate relationship between oil extraction and conflict management in Nigeria’s Niger Delta region, a pivotal area in the country’s oil industry since the 1956 discovery of oil in Oloibiri. Despite the substantial wealth generated by oil, the Niger Delta has been plagued by severe socio-economic and environmental challenges, exacerbated by the centralized control of oil revenues by the federal government. The resulting poverty, unemployment, and environmental degradation have fueled deep-seated resentment and conflicts, involving various actors including militant groups, local communities, and government forces. Using a qualitative methodology, this study examines the historical context of oil production, identifies key stakeholders, and analyzes the socio-economic and environmental impacts on the region. The findings highlight the profound consequences of oil extraction on local communities, including widespread environmental damage, health issues, and socio-political tensions. The study underscores the need for more equitable distribution of oil revenues, stringent environmental regulations, and greater involvement of local communities in decision-making processes to achieve sustainable peace and development in the Niger Delta.
