| dc.description.abstract | Nigeria is faced with the danger of disruptive socio-economic and political forces which have combined to produce opposing contradictions of alarming rate. This is because the inability of the Nigerian government to pursue an authentic developmental agenda in order to provide jobs for the teaming population of young men and women is the reason for the rise and growth of insecurity and terrorism. Terrorism, national security and development are interwoven because the presence or absence of any of them can have adverse consequences in any given society. The contending point here is that government attempts to curb terrorism or promote national security and sustainable development have been frustrated and dysfunctional. The concern of this paper is that there should be a holistic conceptualization ideology driven approach in solving this problem. The paper carefully examines the implications and response of Nigerians to the challenge of terrorism in the context of its socio-political and developmental prospect. We shall proffer suitable recommendations as part of solutions to the issues under review | en_US |
