00:01Nigeria is still reeling after one of its deadliest attacks in recent months.
00:06Gunmen stormed a village in Karara state, killing at least 162 people, according to the Red Cross.
00:13The search for bodies continues, the massacre underscoring Nigeria's deepening crisis of insecurity.
00:19Nigeria is in a deepening conflict trap right now, and it's so bad that the country is dealing with a mix of actors with a very complex security landscape.
00:41But still also, which makes it even more challenging for the armed forces, is that in a conflict location, you could have more than one actor,
00:58which perhaps is what you are referring to, overlapping actors.
01:03Nigeria is battling a 16-year jihadist insurgency in the northeast alongside deadly farmer-herder clashes in the north-central region.
01:13But these crises are only part of a much wider security breakdown.
01:17Apart from the much-covered issue of farmer-pastoralist conflict, you also have the problem of ethnic militias.
01:30Not always between the Fulani and other indigenous communities, but also between indigenous communities like Chuku and the Thief militias in the Taraba-Bienue border area.
01:44Rising bandit attacks along the Benin Republic border are turning a local security issue into a serious threat to Nigeria's national security.
01:55Nigeria's border area with the Benin Republic is very much ungoverned.
02:00You know, you have forest corridors linking these areas.
02:04You have this Kenji National Park, you know, that is very much ungoverned.
02:09So that's an opportunity for them, number one.
02:12Once a peaceful gateway, the border has seen a surge in violence, threatening the main artery that feeds the southwest's industrial and consumer markets.
02:22your way up to penitics.
