Human Security: A Solution to Nigeria Present and Future Security Challenge
Currently, Nigeria is facing different types of security threats ranging from Boko Haram insurgency, cattle rustling, herdsmen/farmers clashes, kidnapping, arm robbery, human trafficking etc. to HIV/AIDS, malaria, lassa fever, among others. The part of causes of these security threats are: unemployment, hunger, poverty, lack of access to good health services etc. And most of these security threats have been persisted for more than a decade now, and their persistency shows that the Nigeria traditional strategy of security management (AK-47 Coercion, and deterrence) is outdated to address the present insecurity situation in Nigeria. Therefore, the focus must be shifted to the new method that will address the causes of these security threats like: provision of employment, access to the basic nutrition and food supply, protection of human rights, living in a safe environment, etc. As alternative strategy to the security management in Nigeria.
