Description

Introduction Conflict in simple terms, means a state of disagreement, controversy or opposition. It could also mean the existence of a prolonged battle, struggle or clash between two or more parties. Obegi and Nyamboga (2008), quoting Nicholas (1992) described conflict as situations where two people (or groups) wish to carry out acts which are mutually incompatible. He further states that conflict involves, "the pushing and pulling, giving and taking, process of finding the balance between powers". In either case, conflict is generally characterized by a breach of peace or understanding among parties involved.
