Abstract
The main objective of this research is to show that the causes of internal security are
inevitable and it is part of the fabrics of the society. What the society showed strive
for is regulation of crisis or its amicable settlement whenever it arises. Since the
extinction of security crisis seems impossible, all the society needs is a mechanism for
security crisis management and control. Security crisis is inevitable because it can
originate in individual and group reactions to situations of scarce recourses, to
division of function within society and differentiation of power and resultant
competition for scarce supplies of goods, states, valued roles and power as an end
itself. A society without security threat is a dead society since security crisis is a
reality of human existence and therefore a means of understanding social behavior.
Thus in this paper, internal security crisis as it relates to its causes, types, effects and
solutions seems a more sensible starting point in addressing the threat to Nigeria’s
existence.
