Peacebuilding and Conflict Resolution

Peacebuilding is part of the Tinubu administration's national-development programme. The government is engaging directly with communities affected by long-running disputes, giving dialogue a central place alongside infrastructure and economic policy.

Its programme includes consultations and conflict-resolution efforts that bring people together to build lasting cooperation.

Dialogue as part of public leadership

The administration's peacebuilding programme includes consultations with communities and institutions affected by long-standing disputes. Its May 2026 review highlights engagement in Ogoni and Plateau, together with efforts to resolve commercial disputes affecting major investments.

These processes bring political leaders, traditional institutions, community representatives and relevant agencies to the same table. Their purpose is to agree workable arrangements and create a firm basis for cooperation where disagreement has held back safety and development.

Building lasting peace and development

Peace is built through participation, trust and follow-through. The administration's approach combines consultation with agreed actions and continued engagement, so that communities see commitments turn into results.

In Ogoni and Plateau, dialogue is building the cooperation that security and development require. Resolving commercial disputes protects investments that create jobs and revenue for Nigerians.

The Tinubu administration recognises that development cannot thrive without peace. By making dialogue and institutional coordination part of its leadership, the government is helping communities move beyond conflict towards security, opportunity and shared progress.
