All over the world; several countries have had a dose of violent conflict either in the past or they are experiencing it presently. It is therefore an open secret that no other time in the history of mankind has there been, to all practical purposes, intractable violent conflicts and bloodletting than now. Nigeria as a country has also had its fair share of violent conflicts. Perhaps the issue of violent conflicts is nowhere more pronounced in Nigeria than in Kaduna State which had experienced concatenations of violent conflicts. This book focuses on the impacts of violent conflicts on the vulnerable groups in Southern part of Kaduna State, with emphasis on Zango-Kataf and Sanga local government areas as case studies.
