The total population of the study was 210 (Cooperative members while a sample size of 133 was statistically determined using Taro Yamane. Questionnaire was employed to obtain data for the study. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics and hypotheses were tested at a 0.05 level of significance, signifying a 95% level of confidence The study revealed that the activities of unknown gunmen affect the services of cooperative societies such as Marketing, Input supply and Extension services. The study recommended among others that the security agencies including the Police, DIA, Army, SSS, Navy and Air force should be trained and retrained in a modern way of combating insecurity and Government should increase its budget allocation to these agencies in order to boost their morale in securing lives and property of both Nigerian citizens and foreigners. Government should put all political options on the table and nothing should be left in the search for peace. The Presidency should be free to talk with any agitated group or segment (unknown gunmen), without compromising public law and order, or the corporate existence of the country.
