Abstract
The study is focused on a critical investigation of banditry in rural community development using Funtua local Government in Kastina State as a case study. Survey research design and convenience sampling method were employed for the study. Fifty (50) educated respondents who are residents of Funtua Local government in Kastina State were purposively selected which forms the population for the study. Using questionnaires as an instrument, forty-seven (47) were retrieved and validated for the study. Data were analyzed using frequencies and tables which provided answers to the research question. Findings from the study reveal that banditry is one of the major forms of insecurity that has affected the northwest geopolitical zone for the past decade. Banditry has affected all facets of human life among which is the underdevelopment of rural communities. These negative impacts include killing and kidnapping of farmers, chasing farmers out of their farmlands, seizing of farmlands, theft of cattle, burning and raiding of grain silos, and blocking of local trade routes which keep rural dwellers in economic impoverishment and lack of development since those areas are not even secured. The study, therefore, recommends that the government should with immediate urgency enhance the security network of those areas, such that security operatives are empowered with enough weapons to confront bandits. Therefore, there is an urgent need to strengthen the traditional security system and its conflict resolution component to fill the gap of the declining capacity of the state formal security agencies to meet the security needs/challenges of rural areas. ...
