  • Military Internal Security Operations in Plateau State, North Central Nigeria: Ameliorating Or Exacerbating Insecurity?
    Military internal security operations in Plateau State, North Central Nigeria: Ameliorating or exacerbating insecurity? by Sallek Yaks Musa Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof L.P.T. Heinecken December 2018 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. December 2018 Copyright © 2018 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT The primary responsibility of a state is the protection of its citizens against external aggression and internal violence and disturbances. Conventionally, the latter is normally the duty of the police. However, in Nigeria as in many African states, as violence erupts and the security situation worsens, government often relies on deploying the military to enforce orderliness and the return of peace. This action is largely due to the inability of the police to contain violent conflicts, especially where the security of the citizenry is threatened by armed groups. This is the situation in Plateau State, Nigeria where the military is used for military internal security operations since violence broke out between Christians and Muslims in Jos, on 7 September 2001. Several studies have indicated support for the use of the military as a ‘necessary evil’ to enforce ceasefires and ensure the return to peace.

Executive Summary The historic 2014 judgment of the Supreme Court banned jallikattu and rekla (bullock cart) races. Although an amendment was made by the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly to The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (PCA) Act, 1960, to allow jallikattu, which includes, “manjuviratu”, “vadamadu”, and “erudhuvidumvizha”, rekla races continue to be banned in the state. The aforesaid position stands confirmed by a recent Right To Information (RTI) response of Tamil Nadu’s Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries Department, wherein it’s stated that the Tamil Nadu Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Conduct of Jallikattu) Rules, 2017, framed under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Tamil Nadu Amendment) Act, 2017, does not permit rekla races in the state.
