Living Through Nigeria's Six-Year
“When We Can’t See the Enemy, Civilians Become the Enemy” Living Through Nigeria’s Six-Year Insurgency About the Report This report explores the experiences of civilians and armed actors living through the conflict in northeastern Nigeria. The ultimate goal is to better understand the gaps in protection from all sides, how civilians perceive security actors, and what communities expect from those who are supposed to protect them from harm. With this understanding, we analyze the structural impediments to protecting civilians, and propose practical—and locally informed—solutions to improve civilian protection and response to the harm caused by all armed actors in this conflict. About Center for Civilians in Conflict Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) works to improve protection for civil- ians caught in conflicts around the world. We call on and advise international organizations, governments, militaries, and armed non-state actors to adopt and implement policies to prevent civilian harm. When civilians are harmed we advocate the provision of amends and post-harm assistance. We bring the voices of civilians themselves to those making decisions affecting their lives. The organization was founded as Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict in 2003 by Marla Ruzicka, a courageous humanitarian killed by a suicide bomber in 2005 while advocating for Iraqi families.

Like other Africans, Nigerian migrants live in countless locations around the world and are connected to their homeland through contingent transnational networks. This thesis explores the onward migration of Nigerian migrants towards, within and beyond Europe and analyses the motivations, patterns and outcomes of their multiple movements. Six cities in Germany, the UK and Spain are the main research locations for the fieldwork that took place over 17 months. The three countries are important destinations for Nigerian migrants in Europe and also the principal destinations of intra-European onward migrants. The cities included in this study are the capital cities Berlin, London and Madrid, as well as Cologne, Manchester and Málaga. -

Internal Conflicts and Forced Migration in Nigeria: a Historical Perspective
Journal of Identity and Migration Studies Volume 11, number 1, 2017 THEMATIC ARTICLES: FACETS OF MIGRATION IN AFRICA Internal Conflicts and Forced Migration in Nigeria: A Historical Perspective Samson Adesola ADESOTE Abstract. In historical perspective, internal conflicts in Nigeria spanned through three distinct epochs: pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial. The resultant effect of each historical epoch of internal conflicts was forced migration. The major thrust of this paper is the historical analysis of the post-colonial internal conflicts, with major emphasis on the Fourth Republic, and forced migration. It argues that since 1960, the eruption of varying types of violent internal conflicts have exacted a heavy toll on the country’s society, polity and economies, hindering her developmental potentials and democratic possibilities. Since the birth of the Fourth Republic in 1999, the Nigerian nation has continued to experience an upsurge of violent conflicts, which have taken terror dimensions, resulting in the killing of many people, large-scale internal population displacement, refugee production, wanton destruction of property, capital flight and so on. For instance, in November 2007, Nigeria was included among the seventeen countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, which were described as the world’s most fragile states. The paper, therefore, submits that in order to save the fragility of Nigerian state from collapsing, the adoption of a holistic and pragmatic approach in addressing the growing challenge of internal conflicts in the 21st century is fundamental. It concludes that it will be practically impossible to achieve any meaningful development in a war-torn society. Keywords: forced migration, internal conflicts, Nigeria Introduction Nigeria, a country with diverse culture, ethnic groups and religion could be best described as a pluralistic society. -

Submission by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees For the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights’ Compilation Report Universal Periodic Review: 3rd Cycle, 38th Session NIGER I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Niger acceded to the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees in 1961, following its independence, and ratified the 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees in 1970 (hereinafter jointly referred to as the 1951 Convention). Moreover, Niger ratified the 1969 OAU Convention Governing the Specific Aspects of Refugee Problems in Africa (the OAU Convention) in 1971. Niger also acceded to the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons (the 1954 Convention) in November 2014 and to the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness (the 1961 Convention) in 1985, with reservations in respect of Articles 11, 14 and 15. In addition, Niger ratified the 2009 African Union Convention for the Protection and Assistance of Internally Displaced Persons in Africa (the Kampala Convention) in 2012, and was the first country in Africa to adopt a national law on internal displacement1 (Loi n° 2018-74 du 10 décembre 2018 relative à la protection et à l'assistance aux personnes déplacées internes2). The key legislative act regulating asylum in Niger is the Loi n° 97-016 du 20 juin 1997 relative au statut des réfugiés and its Décret d'application n° 98-382/PRN/MI/AT du 24 Décembre 1998. UNHCR opened a country representation in Niger in 2012 following the outbreak of the Mali crisis and signed an “Accord de Siège” in 2014. UNHCR is present in the main refugee hosting regions: Niamey, Tahoua, Tillaberi (including Ouallam, Abala and Ayorou), Diffa, Agadez and Maradi. -
