| Popis: | AbstractMigration has been an inseparable and indispensable part of the history of the Igbo nation. However, the nature, dynamics, and drivers of migration among the Igbo significantly altered since colonial era. Scholars have interrogated aspects of migration and its impact on the Igbo nation. Not many studies; however, have interrogated Igbo migration into Cameroon as well as the Igbo-Cameroon Intergroup relations during the period under review. This paper, therefore, examines the drivers of migration, the nature, dynamics, and impact of Igbo-Cameroon intergroup relations on both groups during the period under review. The study utilized primary and secondary sources while thematic, historical descriptive and analytical approaches were employed in the analysis of its data. The study reveals that colonialism impacts the nature of migration among the Igbo, particularly, from the 20th century up to the mid-20th century. |
