“…For those who survived the dangerous route, in their countries of destination they faced inhuman treatment from their traffickers who maltreated them mentally and physically through rape, beating, drug abuse, starvation, confinement and seclusion so as to keep them in perpetual servitude [22].

In Nigeria, the prevalence of irregular migration, human trafficking, and modern slavery reflects a socio-political deficiencies and a pure socio-economic imbalance between the rich and the poor. As a result, this study investigated the determinants and consequences of irregular migration, human trafficking, and modern slavery in Nigeria in the context of national and international perspectives. Several variables were believed to be determining factors of these events based on what is apparent in the existing literature reviewed, including poverty, low standard of living, insecurity, wealth disparity, leadership flaws, and a low level of education. This paper then concludes that, given the globalising nature of these events (irregular migration, human trafficking, and modern slavery), it would be extraordinarily impossible for any single country to adequately address the tremendous consequences emanating from these social events.

“…The preceding argument has a share in the growing incidents of such violent offending as armed robbery (Etuk & Nnam, 2018; Otu & Elechi, 2015), kidnapping (Otu et al, 2018a, 2018b; Tade et al, 2020), cultism (Nnam, 2014b), and terrorism (Eteng et al, 2021; Nnam et al, 2018, 2020b; Ordu, 2017; Tade & Onwuanaegbule, 2020). At the same time, it is important nevertheless to note the fact that variations still exist in the interplay between drug use and offending.…”

This study investigated the operational dynamics of male violent offenders incarcerated in Abakaliki custodial center, Nigeria. A cross-sectional survey research design was adopted and purposive technique used to recruit 260 inmates charged with violent offenses. The data generated from structured questionnaire were analyzed using Predictive Analytic Software (PAS), with ordinary least regression, descriptive statistics and spearman rank order correlation techniques, employed in testing the variables explored. Findings revealed that this population use drugs to enhance criminal performance through being brutal; instilling fear in victims to secure their total compliance and submission; and suppressing regret for their criminal acts. Heroin, followed by, cocaine, cannabis, tramadol, and multiple drug use, were commonly used drugs in the population surveyed, with their offenses ranging from cultism, armed robbery, murder and burglary to kidnapping and assault and battery. Gaining insights into the changing operational knowledge, procedures and dynamics of violent offenders will (re)direct policy approach and action that are capable of increasing public and custodial safety. It will also orient and direct practical prison reforms for successful rehabilitation and reintegration of released inmates into the free world.

“…The role of women is considered to be one of the influential factors in terrorism in the world (Dumont et al, 2022;Meierrieks & Renner, 2023;Navarro-Granados & Llorent-Bedmar, 2022). Women are also one of the variables that influence the prevention of terrorism (Eteng et al, 2021). This study aims to analyze more deeply the role of women in the deradicalization process at the local level.…”

The purpose of this research is to investigate the possibilities of localised female empowerment as a factor supporting deradicalization in Indonesia. Researchers look into the possibilities for deradicalization through localised empowerment of women using descriptive qualitative research methods. Descriptive research means collecting all data related to incidents or situations aligned with the study's theme. That is, by reading and analysing literature sources from regional journals, international articles, and online news sources that discuss women's participation in terrorist acts, women's empowerment in preventing terrorism initiatives, and existing attempts to eradicate terrorism in Indonesia. Using the data or information that has been found, researchers may use the grounded theory technique to explain the causes of a phenomenon, identify its causes and effects, and decide what actions can be implemented in regard to the current situation. The use of localised women's empowerment is thought to have the potential to be an preventative action against the issue of terrorism. Women may be incredibly motivating role models. Women are capable of doing this in the smallest scope, which is the family. Women are able to educate their children and families, provide the concept of tolerance, and spread the love of peace. That is why it is needed to strengthen the laws that may regulate existence of efforts to create deradicalization in local level by involving women in it.
