“…Monsuru (2014) sees security as any form of internal or external threat which defies the power of the state in every attempt to attain certain goal through forcible or coercive means. Though, it will not be a mischief to say that security is a contestable concept as several definitions are currently been used without much agreement among scholars in their individual conceptualization though, it also depends on what necessitates security in the mind of scholars (Uwa and Aisedion, 2021). Thus, South Africa White Paper on Defence, sees security as:…”

“…In most cases, the security condition of a particular country is usually a function of its capacity to forestall, avert, accomplish and efficiently respond to threats. Uwa and Aisedion (2021) believes that threat assessment should be comprehensive and incorporating enough to accept all types of intervention within a state's security of it domains; to include economic threat, social threat, military, territorial threat, political threat, cultural threat among others. There is certainly great sense in moving outside the uncluttered model of threat (Ukpabi, 1987).…”

The incidence of violent conflict and insecurity in Africa is evident and apparent. Armed conflicts have become a regular realism in Africa for so long and the continent is predominantly conflict-prone and has also accommodated more than one-third of international armed conflicts in the last few years. The resurgence of conflict in Africa after the Cold War is mostly worrisome and disturbing. Despite these challenges and threats posed by conflict in the region, there is little or no common approach in terms of proper policy formulation or implementation for appropriate prevention and management of these conflicts that occurs in the continent. Therefore, the trust of this study seeks to study these touching issues to offer a conceivable and enduring resolution to the issues. The research was carried out using secondary sources of data and was analyzed qualitatively. The causes of conflict and insecurity were revealed. The paper also observed that the prospect of achieving Agenda 2063 of the African Union profoundly depends on proper institutions for conflict prevention, management, and resolution in the continent. Hence, the paper recommends among others, that efforts must be intensified to harmonize the African strategy on good governance agenda, as APSA and AGA are similar in their visions and objectives. Whereas AGA places emphasis on comprehensive demands of good governance, APSA on the other hand emphasizes the importance of the instruments for proper conflict management, resolution, and by extension on peace-building in the region. Hence, there is a need for both to work together, as this will not only promote the desirable peace, security, and development in the continent of Africa but, will also guarantee a lead way for the Attainment of Agenda 2063 of the African Union.
