It has been observed that majority of the people are living in poor housing quality or are totally homeless in urban centers despite all government policies aimed at providing housing to the public.

Abstract: This study set out to investigate the impact of fiscal policy and institutional quality on inclusive growth in Nigeria from 1985-2017. This was achieved through the use of two models, with the human development index (HDI) and per capita Gross Domestic Product (PGDP) being the main dependent variables used to capture the degree of inclusiveness of growth in Nigeria. These equations were estimated using the ordinary least squares method of estimation. The study found that fiscal policy has a significant effect on inclusive growth in Nigeria while quality of domestic institutions was found to have an insignificant impact on inclusive growth in Nigeria. Based on the findings, the study recommended that government should not neglect fiscal policy as it is invaluable for a more inclusive growth; increase recurrent expenditure on economic services, transfers and capital expenditure, and public spending on the provision of social and community services should be effectively monitored to avoid misappropriation of funds. Also recommended was the fight against corruption to strengthen institutional quality in Nigeria.

Abstract: Ethnic conflicts have been witnessed world over; different communities fight each other over territorial boundaries, limited natural resources and political supremacy. This worrying trend disturbs livelihoods, access to social amenities and affects local and international economies. As a limited resource, with cultural and economic value, land has generated inter-ethnic conflicts world-wide. In Kenya communities like the Maasai and Kipsigis have recently fought over land and cattle. The Pokomo and Oromo have had a history of land conflict in the Tana River Delta. The Gabbra and Dassenetch communities of Marsabit County have fought over grazing land in the recent past..............
