Migration from Nigeria and the future of global security[electronic resource] /by Frank Aragbonfoh Abumere, John Sodiq Sanni. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2022. - vi, 135 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - St Antony's series,2633-5972. - St Antony's series..

1. Introduction -- 2. The Nexus between Nigerian Migrants and the Future of Global Security -- 3. Population Growth and Instability -- 4. The Burden of Religion and the Fear of Islam -- 5. The Future of Global Security -- 6. Mitigating Potential Global Security -- 7. Conclusion.

This book explores the possible (actual, potential and imagined) future security threats migration from Nigeria could pose to Europe, the United States of America, Canada and to some extent Australia. The negative consequences of terrorism, resource curse, extreme poverty, bad governance and illiteracy are highly likely to compound the already existing migration (both legal and illegal migration) from Nigeria to Europe. Given the current nationalist and populist tendencies in the United States of America and many parts of Europe, which have amplified the securitization of migration, the authors argue that the continuous high influx of legal and illegal migrants from Africa is a potential global security case. Frank Aragbonfoh Abumere is Cmelikova Visiting International Scholar at the Jepson School of Leadership Studies, University of Richmond, USA. He was Senior Member of St Antony's College, and Academic Visitor at the African Studies Centre, Oxford School of Global and Area Studies, University of Oxford, UK. John Sodiq Sanni is Lecturer at the University of Pretoria, South Africa. His research areas include African political philosophy, African philosophy, migration studies, conflict studies, religion and politics, and contemporary philosophy.
