dc.description	This paper takes an exploratory look at the issues of ethn icity in Nigeria from a hi stori ca l perspective. It shows the interplay between ethnic ri va lry and the challenges of Nationa l Sec urity which have in the current dispensation become very compellin g with rampant cases of bombings. terrorist attacks. murder, mayhem and all sorts of vices in some parts of the country. The paper belie\·es in the princ iple of "U nity in Diversity'". for in it lies our strength as a people, including the protection of our nasce nt democracy. In addition. it believes that such debilitating issues concerning culture and religious differences, including po litical affiliation s should not hinder the relative peace and stability which we have hitherto enjoyed in Nigeria, regarded as the most populous black Nation in the world. The paper further tries to proffer solutions towards enhancing our unity in spite of our diversity including how issues of insecurity can be addressed in Nigeria
