ABSTRACT
This study was carried out on the perception of RUGA settlement in Nigeria. The continuous desiccation of the Sahara, inter alia, has mounted severe pressures on herding communities in the Sahel regions of Nigeria, leading to their downward movements to central and southern Nigeria in search of pastures for their flocks. This has culminated in terrific violent conflicts to which the RUGA is one of the intervention policies designed by the Nigerian government to mitigate. This work attempts a situational analysis of the RUGA policy to identify the various factors that culminated in its rejection by stakeholders from central and southern Nigeria. Secondary evidences in the form of media reports and primary data such as press releases by stakeholders suggest that the rejection was, among other things, instigated by the hysteria of a calculated stratagem by the federal government to, through federal-might, reallocate ancestral lands of central/southern Nigeria to the demographically pressurised herding groups from the north through the RUGA settlement. There is, therefore, a need for rigorous consultations of stakeholders nationwide in drafting and implementing sensitive policies of national significance.
