| dc.description.abstract | Ever since mans’ existence, violence had been an integral part of human society. Urban violence has become popular among nations with gains and pains. Several methods had been devised to mitigate the effect on man but little had been achieved. In most cases, it only exhibit amorphous change from one dimension of occurrence to the other. This work aim to give answer to the question of why has violence persisted in both developed and developing societies. This paper also reveals three dimensions of sustenance in which urban violence had imbibed to become insolvent in most communities. Broken window theoretical frame work is used to guide the work. Methodological analysis of 2400 perception of people across Nigeria were randomly sampled and analyzed using the afrobarometer database research to deduce how safe they feel in the community and the level of their trust on the state security. Series of recommendations that does not work were discussed and hybrid recommendations that will work were posited. Finally, the conclusion reached is that violence is an integral part of man’s life which cannot end but a rightful political will and organized—continuous check-up of moderating mechanics of the state, urban violence will be reduced to a minimal level. | en_US |
