SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In the last decades, religious clashes in Nigeria have caused a worrisome social disorder that has made co-existence and collaboration between Nigerian Christians and Muslims difficult. Nigeria has had to contend with challenging obstacles that seem to defy all available solutions. This dissertation centers on the role that the faith traditions of Islam and Christianity can play in ameliorating the situations by drawing upon theological models that encourage a more peaceful co-existence among religious groups in Nigeria.
