dc.description.abstractUndermining the extent to which insecurity has become endemic in Nigeria currently would be tantamount to denial syndrome or refusal to accept reality. It has become a plague in which individuals’ solace for the restoration of peace and security is no longer rested in the government. In other words, citizens do not have confidence in the security system in place in Nigeria for protection of lives and properties. Whilst this is the reality, the bane of ensuring security in Nigeria hugely rests on the government. The Constitution places the duty of ensuring security on the government, and to ensure this, there are several federal security outfits and agencies (Nigeria Police, Army, Air force, NSCDC, SSS, etc.), the State Policing system (like the Amotekun in the south-west zone), and other policies put in place. The questions are, why are these efforts not yielding positive outcomes? Why do the citizens still sleep with an eye open? Why is the level of insecurity still higher than in some other countries when Nigeria is known as the giant of Africa? It is the intention of this paper to analyse and compare the security strategies of some countries with a rather low level of insecurity (having in mind the peculiarity of Nigeria as an African country) with that of Nigeria. The analysis is to reveal whether Nigeria, as a country, can learn from such strategies for the protection of lives and properties in the country. Appropriate recommendations on the better approach by the Nigerian government to curb the incessant killings and kidnappings shall be made.
