The central thesis of conflict transformation theory is that contemporary violent conflicts require interventions than transcend more than a mere change of position and the identification of win-win outcomes.

The federal government should look into ways to improving on the present programme on Niger Delta; oil cooperation's must be made to participate in providing basic amenities in the Region; the federal government must prioritize the clean -up of the region due to continuous oil spill and pollution in the environment.
