Produktbeschreibung
Since the return of Nigeria to Democratically elected government on May 29, 1999 the Country has been witnessing an unprecedented rate of crime and criminal related activities like Odua People s Congress (OPC) in the South West, Bakassi Boys in the East, vandalization of oil pipelines and kidnapping of oil company workers in the South-South by Movement for Emancipation of Niger Delta (MEND), while in the North, the problem of sectarian crisis and implementation of Sharia law led to the emergence of Islamic Fundamentalist (Boko Haram). These ethnic militias and chauvinistic organization create instabilities which police cannot handle. The foregoing provide an impetus for one to assess the agencies of social control especially the police who are charged with the constitutional role of crime control in Nigeria in order to understand the problem that militate against their performance in contemporary societies and fine solution to the problems. The book will be of benefit to Sociologist, Criminologist, Security Agencies, and those who desire for peace the World over.
