adopted by National Boundary Commission towards the
resolution and definition of interstate boundaries in Nigeria is the
application of ethnographic research study.  This is carried out in
order to obtain first hand fact and information on the areas and
communities in dispute, and indeed the entire boundary corridor”, the
