Abstract

This paper examined the probability of dying by the crimes of belligerent Fulani herders in Plateau State, Nigeria. The study adopted the Rational Choice theoretical framework of analysis. The study was conducted in Plateau State, Nigeria, with a 400-person sample size, and data were collected using a survey method. The findings revealed a correlation between the factors that led belligerent Fulani herders in Plateau State to conduct crimes and differences in the likelihood of dying due to those factors. This article recommended: the deradicalization of primordial religious ideologies, the return of displaced people, and the revision of grazing reserve law.
