Nigeria

Nigeria’s complex religious landscape is intricately involved in wide-ranging issues for development and peace, yet views on how and why are sharply polarized. With a population (some 186 million in 2016) roughly equally divided between Muslims and Christians, interreligious relationships have repercussions across sectors and regions. However, different conflicts have contested religious dimensions as do wide-ranging peacebuilding efforts.
