A debate was held in the House of Lords in the UK today titled “Nigeria: Fulani” and it kicked off with Baroness Cox questioning the government about “their assessment of recent developments in Nigeria, with particular reference to attacks by Fulani militia.”

Responding on behalf of the UK government, Lord Ahmad, the Minister of State in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office claimed: “We remain deeply concerned by the escalation in intercommunal violence across Nigeria, which has a devastating impact on lives and communities and is a barrier to Nigeria’s development. While religion is a factor, the root causes remain complex and include access to resources, population growth and displacement due to climate change and desertification. We are working closely with international partners and the Nigerian Government to develop measures to address the causes of the conflict, including the national livestock transformation plan.”
