The series of ethnic and religious conflict in Kaduna State necessitated the
research topic “Effect of ethno-religious conflict on the development of
Local Government in Kaduna State with the aim and objective to examine
the effect of ethnic and religious conflict; and to find out how these conflicts
at the Local Government level can be abated against continuous occurrence.
Both the primary and secondary sources of data collections were used, while

dearth of infrastructural facilities. Therefore it recommends that government
should ensure peace and security through trainings and retraining of
security personnel giving the traditional rulers and community leaders
functional roles in promoting and ensuring unity and peace among the
citizens. The research will be utmost importance to policy makers,
researchers and students of conflict management especially at the grassroots
