The general objective of this paper was to explore community policing as an alternative approach to security management in Nigeria. The paper identified the core components of community policing and how it can be implemented in Nigeria. Although there have been efforts at implementing community policing in Nigeria, the paper observes that the issue has merely been superficial without any core change in the system. Several recommendations were made towards implementing community policing in Nigeria. These includes rebranding the police and maintaining healthy civil relations as well as engaging community leaders for the purpose of intelligence gathering and sharing.
