Nowhere is the situation more dire than in Nigeria where the now infamous SARS (Special Anti-Robbery Squads) have, for years, inflicted excessive abuses on Nigeria's citizenry. In response, many young people have taken to the streets to demand an end to the brutality in the now historic #ENDSARS nationwide protest. Community Policing in Nigeria is a timely and much-needed intervention into the policing problems in Nigeria. Written collaboratively by four authors with deep knowledge of Nigerian policy and of criminal justice more broadly, the book examines models of community policing around the world and points out best practices and flawed practices that may serve as guides for Nigeria and the rest of Africa. Community Policing in Nigeria is published in the United States by Virginia Tech Publishing and in Nigeria by Fourth Dimension Publishing. 517 $aCommunity Policing in Nigeria 606 $aCommunity policing$zNigeria 606 $aPolice administration$zNigeria 615 0$aCommunity policing 615 0$aPolice administration 676 $a363.23 700 $aOnyeozili$b Emmanuel C.$01368504 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688450503321 996 $aCommunity policing in Nigeria$93394346 997 $aUNINA
