Various factors that are not necessarily mutually exclusive drive the Fulani herder’s translocation within, and in and out of the south-west region in Nigeria. Available data prove that the Fulani herders’ translocation covers very long distances and vast areas. Initially, it was temporarily a search for pasture and water for their cattle in a speculated area during the dry season. The translocation of Fulani is still ongoing and very much increasing as it is now an everyday affair, and the huge difference is that Fulani herders do not return to the starting point but rather keep moving farther though in segments. Hence, a qualitative discourse on the increased frequency and intensity of herders’ translocation in southwest Nigeria is fundamentally characterised in the study. The research as well analyses the significance of the push and pull of translocality with focus on Fulani herders as local key actors. The article examines the enthusiasms of groups in the decision to translocate and explores the intervening flaws and ambiguities within the process and how it's been managed. The article also highlights the urgent needs for Livelihood sustenance which centred on human Security.
