Police are omnipresent in Nigerian cities. The existence and actions of the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) in cities such as Lagos, Ibadan, and Abuja are intended like elsewhere in the urban world to deter, reduce, and solve crime.

Its methods of seeking greater public security, however, raises questi…

This paper argues that there is a need for security models that address African countries’ particular c…
