dc.description.abstractShare and Tsaragi are twin communities in Kwara State, Nigeria, living harmoniously for centuries before a crisison border issues erupted between them. This study argues that internal mechanisms that originate from thepeople's philosophy and culture are potent tools to sustain peaceful co-existence between them. The researchdesigns are quantitative and qualitative and data were gathered from participant observations, questionnaires,and interviews. Findings show that government interventions have not been perfectly enforced, hence recurringconflicts. The study concludes that crises are imminent where population growth is without corresponding eco-nomic empowerment and socio-cultural integration among the people. Previous research efforts confirm thatAfrican conflicts often occur due to the combination of poverty and weak States and institutions. However, datafrom this research confirm that collaborations and consensus are potent tools to entrench peace in Share andTsaragi communities.en_US
