Using archival materials, oral histories, and contemporary narratives, Oyeniyi illustrates how colonial legacies, ethnic identities, and local power dynamics have contributed to ongoing tensions. The analysis reveals how historical grievances are often reframed in contemporary contexts, influencing community relations and political alignments. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the necessity of understanding historical contexts to address current conflicts, offering insights into conflict resolution and peacebuilding strategies that are informed by a nuanced grasp of local histories and cultural identities. This book contributes significantly to the broader discourse on conflict in Nigeria and Africa, emphasizing the importance of historical awareness in contemporary sociopolitical landscapes.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBukola Adeyemi Oyeniyi\u003c\/b\u003e is associate professor of history at Missouri State University, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 04, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47356297773305,"sku":"9781666971156","price":198.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/Qr0jneQCnX9781666971156_abe1fb47-f0b3-40bb-8ca0-49a46a8707b7.webp?v=1769859166","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-ife-modakeke-conflict-historical-legacies-cultural-divergences-and-sociopolitical-tensions-hardcover-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
