In Nigerian history, pacification refers to the British colonial strategy of using military force to suppress resistance and enforce their rule over various regions.
This process was carried out through wars, military expeditions and punitive measures against communities that resisted British domination. Some key examples include:
The conquest of Sokoto (1903) – The British overpowered the Sokoto Caliphate.
The Benin Expedition (1897) – The British destroyed the Kingdom of Benin after it resisted colonial interference.
The Aro Expedition (1901-1902) – The British defeated the Aro Confederacy in southeastern Nigeria.
