The persistent security crisis in Nigeria’s Kaduna state is primarily characterized by which of the following?

💡 Explanation:

Northern Nigerian states, including Kaduna, face a security crisis primarily driven by banditry, which involves organized attacks, mass abductions, cattle rustling, and farmer-herder clashes often classified as communal conflicts. This issue is distinct from the challenges in the Niger Delta (piracy/bunkering) or the southeast (Biafran separatism).
