In your own words what do you understand by the word security

Security is a very common word in our generation because there are so many insecure activities in our environment, both basic, home made, foreign or complex type of insecurities ravage our world now.

The first thing that comes to my mind whenever I hear the word security, the first thing that comes to mind is the act of keeping something safe from outside body or destruction.

In my understanding security is that act of protection, saving, reserving, preserving and maintaining something or someone from risk, disaster, death, destruction or foreign bodies.

In your country, in what ways has the government been able to keep the citizens safe?

Hmmmmm, in my country this don't exist especially if you are from a poor background, Yes i know I'm supposed to protect my country but the insecurity is so severe that i must speak out. In this country the poor lifes don't matter, this politicians only care about their self and their friends.

Infact from my observations the government are they one endangering our lives because there are the cause of the insecurities in the country so therefore the Youth find alternative eay to survive in the country. Recently there was a case of a musician who was killed but before he died he made a videos saying there are after his life but because his opponent are very popular and rich they case were ignores until he finally died a mysterious death

In a secure country they security would have ensured he easily safely protected him or settle their case peacefully but no, noting was done until his death, everyday there are so many insecuritiy complains all over tht country

Personally, what do you do for yourself or your family to be safe in your town or country?

The number 1 way to stay safe in this country, is to know your God, worship him well, because its God that's saving the ordinary people in my country. If you relay on your physical strength you might get disappointed because the physical force are really powerful.

The number 2 way to stay safe in this country is to mind your business and stop poke nosing on other people case or matter no matter the person because thos has killed so many people in Nigeria. Many people have died because of small mistake in Nigeria.

The number 3 way to survive is to avoid late night movement or show, walking in dangerous hours in Nigeria is more like gambling on one life. The day time is very dangerous talkless about the night hour, so i make sure i am inside as before 7 pm.

Have you experienced or heard of any case of insecurity (robbery or kidnap)? What happened?

Yes, i was robbed in my first year in the university, over here its called obtaining. That's to say i was obtained due to my ignorance. On this faithful day me and my friend frank was going to market, we were just leaving the hostel when some cult boys stopped us on the road.

As fresh student we were scared and they took advantage of us, the searched our pocket and collected our money we planned to us get food stuff from the market. The only good news was that they didn't hurt us and they y didn't take our phone and laptop in Frank bag.

What do you think is the best way to keep a home secure?

The best way to keep your family safe is to avoid trouble because some people tends to make trouble and fight with all their neighbors, these act make all of the family members insecure and prone to attacks from any place and no one would come out to secure you and your family.

The other way to prevent problem is to always avoid to much night movement and lock the doors properly, lock the windows well to avoid intruders of different types. If possible add protectors to your window to increase your security
