Levels of Conflict and Their Modes of Resolution in Traditional Igbanke Society
Before any conflict could be managed or resolved, its cause is examined. In traditional Igbanke society, most conflicts have been triggered off by issues regarding Land, Power, and Money. Land is a primordial asset of the Igbanke people and so, there is often the die-hard feeling of ownership and attachment to it. The quest for power is mostly common amongst title holders and seekers. Power struggle could also be found within families. The causal factor of money cuts across all strata of the Igbanke society.

“The country is fed up with children and their problems. For the first time in history, the differences in outlook between people raising children and those who are not are beginning to assume some political significance.

Society has less time for the concerns of those who raise the young or try to teach them.”

—Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
“...I cannot conceive a more odious society than one where nothing is considered indecent or impious.”
