The trafficking and circulation of small arms and light weapons(SALW) in the hands of non-state actors fuel violent conflict in the region. The trust of this paper is to establish a possible link between the proliferation of SALW and its security implication. The paper argues that the inability of the Nigerian government to address and curtailed demand and supply factors of SALW propelled the proliferation, and the direction of this paper is to provide a deeper understanding of the circulation of the weapons in the hands of criminals and unauthorized persons. Literature is review from relevant views of security scholars. The methodology adopted for this study is based on the use of secondary sources of data generated from textbooks, academic journals and related materials from the internet. Neo Marxist political economy approach is the theoretical framework to be used to empirically and critically analyze and justify the study. Causes, sources, transit, and destinations of SALW and its security implications will be discussed. The study will be relevant to government officials, security personnel, civil society groups, scholars, students, and policymakers and it is also a contribution to knowledge to close up the existing gap in the literature and to explore and spark up deeper research in the field and finally, the conclusion is made.

The evolution and emergence of postmodernism as a social theory will be discussed, basic assumptions, contributions and criticisms of the postmodernism will be discussed and analyzed. Related academic books and journals on postmodernism will be used as a reference in gathering literature to analyses the concept in a broader meaning. The paper argued that postmodernism in international relations is a radical departure or break away from modernism way of thinking to postmodernism characterized by the new and complex articulation of world conditions and issues within the context of interpretative and internationalized inform...

But these problem varies from one community to the other which attracted the attention of the World, State, Regional, and Global Non-Governmental Organization as it has increased tension and separated the high number of intra-state crises or violent. But for the purpose of this paper, the study narrows down to the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria. The region was blessed with mineral resources which cause land exploitation and make the communities live miserable compared to other communities in the country. These conditions of hardship cause internal conflicts and light weapons smuggled from Countries like; Guinea-Bissau, Gabon, and Cameroon which is against the role of ECOWAS on Small and Light Weapon (SALW) adopted in each member States in which Nigeria is not excluded. As an attempt to manage the Security Challenges and Arms Control in the Niger Delta Region, was the declaration of Amnesty Programme by Late President Umaru Musa Yar‟adua. The death of the President did not bring an end to the Amnesty Programme, because Good Luck Jonathan was the Son of Niger Delta and became Nigerian‟s President who allowed the policy and the program to continue. The study examined the effectiveness of the 2009 Amnesty Programme in curbing out the Arms Proliferation in Niger-Delta Region which poses serious challenges to the Security of Nigeria in general. The study used secondary sources of data and created a scholarly argument on the resolution of the armed conflict in the region, with specific reference to the problems of arms proliferation.

The paper argued that postmodernism in international relations is a radical departure or break away from modernism way of thinking to postmodernism characterized by the new and complex articulation of world conditions and issues within the context of interpretative and internationalized informed by postmodern preoccupations of new philosophy and ideas based on the relative objective reality of human conditions. The paper concluded that postmodernism is a reaction from modernity to post modernity for their inability and failure to interpret world events based on objective reality.
