This paper identifies the gap in the historical narratives gathered from the members of the
belligerent communities and the sparsity of related literatures. Thus, this paper attempts a
chronological reconstruction of the Ife-Modakeke conflict by exploring and fusing a plethora
of related secondary source of data. The paper advocates the need to sustain an accurate history
of the Ife-Modakeke relations; implementation of social justice; and the disarmament of the
members of the two communities to engender sustainable peace and the total prevention of the
conflict from re-occurring.
