Synopsis

Predictive Policing in Nigeria: Local Innovations in a Global Security Paradigm explores the emergence, challenges, and potentials of predictive policing as a transformative tool in Nigeria’s law enforcement landscape. The book provides a thorough examination of how data-driven policing models, integrating crime mapping, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics, are being adapted in Nigeria to address crime, terrorism, and urban security challenges.Using a blend of theoretical frameworks, policy analysis, and empirical fieldwork, the book critically analyses pilot projects in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, along with the institutional capacity of Nigerian law enforcement agencies. It assesses how predictive technologies interact with pre-existing issues such as corruption, inadequate training, legal ambiguities, and public distrust.Positioned within a global security discourse, this book emphasizes that while Nigeria draws from international models, its implementation remains uniquely local. The work proposes an ethical and strategic framework for the deployment of predictive policing that aligns innovation with accountability, legal safeguards, and community engagement.
