ABSTRACT
This study examines the security implications of communal land disputes in Tiv-land, using four (4) LGAs, namely Vandeikya, Ukum, Guma and Tarka as a case of study. It examines relevant literature and using asample of One hundred and fourty (140) respondents across all selected LGAs for questionnaire administration. The finding revealed there are serious security implications to lives and properties of inhabitants of Tiv-land as a result from communal land disputes.This has led to the break-up of communities socio-politically and economically. It therefore recommended the parties involved in disputes should be encouraged to dialogue or negotiate on how to solve their differences, as the negotiation strategy creates opportunities for each party to express their opinion and to listen to those of others. It also recommends that the policy makers of Nigeria need to review the effectiveness of the country’s land laws and their applications at the regional and local levels. To avoid complications, selected community leaders must be involved in the process.
