  abstract  = {The "Akọ na Uche" (Wisdom and Justifiability) of Preemptive-strike in Self-defense and Alternative Conflict Resolutions is an ethical examine on man's inherent right of self-defense, not only as a right that is innate, but also as an individual's or a nation's right enshrined in, and guaranteed by the Charter provisions of the United Nations. Stemming from the painful experience of the First and Second World Wars, nations wishing never again to engage one another in such full scale wars of destruction, met in San Francisco, California, accepted the formation of a new organization, the United Nations, to replace the League of Nations considered as ineffectual. The participating nations articulated a set of guiding principles in the form of rules, rights and responsibilities endorsed by all the early member-nations on June 26, 1945, but effective from October 24, same year. This is the birth of the United Nations Charter. With the endorsement of the Charter, all member-nations assumed the responsibility of making the world a better place, peaceful and secure for humanity. They vowed never again to engage in unethical wars, they accepted to respect and foster human rights, to fight poverty, to spread democracy and to promote more healthy and robust international relations through a more vibrant cooperation and aggressive diplomacy. The Charter also reaffirmed the intrinsic right of self-defense of the victim of an armed attack, which sometimes has been utilized as well as exploited.},
