Abstract

The increasing numbers of people, who loss their lives because of insurgency in Nigeria, pose serious danger to Nation building. This paper x-rayed the relationship between insurgency and nation building in Nigeria between 2009 and 2014. Sadly, the gaps between the North and South, Christians and Muslims increase by the day. Unfortunately, the era of suspicious and lack of trust are back in the country, this unpleasant situation has made many southerners and Christians to leave the war zone in droves. The method of this paper was qualitative and exploratory in nature; descriptive analysis of secondary source gave an insight into the subject matter. This study found out that insurgency had serious effect on the Nation building. It is therefore recommended among others that aside from collective efforts towards the fight against the insurgent activities, there should be an overhaul of Nigerian defence policy.
