Abstract or Introduction
The inability of the Nigerian Police to control the increasing wave of crime has led to the proliferation of community policing in many parts of the country. Thus, this thesis was designed to examine the effects of community policing on crime prevention in Nigeria, with a focus on the Jos South local government area of Plateau State, Nigeria. In this study, four research objectives were derived and four research questions were asked. The target population was the youth, stakeholders and law enforcement agents in Jos South Local Government Area.
Data was obtained through the quantitative method (questionnaires), as a cluster sampling technique was adopted in the selection of respondents. 250 respondents were sampled through descriptive survey design. The research was answered using mean and standard deviation analysis (statistical package for social sciences SPSS).
