dc.descriptionRecent security development in Nigeria shows that security agencies are facing great difficulties to manage domestic security situations. This has led to more public trust on traditional institutions. Thereby prompting popular demand for the reintegration of traditional institutions into Nigeria's security management system. This thesis, therefore examines the challenges and options for the reintegration of 'traditional institutions' into Nigeria's security management, based on the case study of Kano Traditional Emirate Council. The objectives of the study are firstly to identify the factors prompting the desire for the reintegration of traditional institutions into Nigeria's security management; secondly, to examine the problems associated with the reintegration process; and thirdly, to find out how the reintegration will enhance Nigeria's security management. The study uses a realist framework with a qualitative research design as its methodology. Primary data was collected using in-depth elite interviews from 26 purposively selected key respondents. In addition, secondary data was obtained from related publications in order to complement the primary data. Firstly, the findings revealed that the major factors influencing the demand for reintegration are insecurity, inadequate policing, lack of public trust on modern security agencies, and lack of effective conflict resolution methods by modern security agencies. Secondly, findings showed that prominent challenges associated with the reintegration process comprise of problems of constitutional amendment, competition between local government administrators and traditional rulers, misuse of authority by traditional rulers, corruption, low literacy level among members of traditional institutions, and opposition by the military. Lastly, the study also implied that reintegration of traditional institutions can improve Nigeria's security management through conflict resolution, intelligence gathering, provision of complementary community security, and building public trust for modern security agencies.,Certification of Master's/Doctoral Thesis" is not available-
