dc.description.abstractDemocratic systems over the world are faced with the challenges of meeting the growing desire of their citizens’ demand for more participation in governance. Besides, Nigeria is not an exception as there has been growing demand by Nigerians for inclusive governance especially since the return of the country to democratic rule in 1999. This study seeks to assess the implications of insecurity on Nigeria’s quest for democratic consolidation. This study relied heavily on secondary data such as text books, journal articles and other internet sources amongst others while content analysis will be employed as its method of data analysis. Besides, this study is situated within the political economy theoretical framework. This study argues that the growing state of insecurity in Nigeria has a strong link to bad governance, politics of exclusion and marginalization which in turn have triggered various violence acts across the country. This study therefore recommend amongst other things that until there is inclusive governance in all sphere of governance in Nigeria that will allow for adequate representation, Nigeria’s quest for security will be a mirage.en_US
