Data was analyzed and presented using frequency distribution, percentage and tables. Empirical findings from the study show that all the villages surveyed had a functional vigilante group that provided security services. The study also revealed that the absence of vigilantes in the past resulted in a high rate of criminal activities in the community. It also showed that if the vigilante groups are properly empowered they would provide better security services. In view of the findings, community leaders and the government are advised to encourage the formation of more vigilante groups to help in security management at the community levels. ...Preview Download Preview +Other Criminology and Security Studies project topics and materials you might be interested in»Kidnapping and its implication in the society»The impact of reward on employee performance»The socio-economic impact of the use of vigilante groups on security management - case study of Ihiagwa, autonomous community, Imo state
