Abstract
This paper analytically explores the interconnections within moral education and national integration and social order in Nigeria. The paper holds the viewpoint that national integration and social orderliness requires moral education. In lieu of this, Teacher education programs must help teaching students to link the moral purpose that influences them with the tools that will prepare them to engage in productive change. The paper argues for new rationale why moral education and teacher development are fundamental to national integration, insecurity challenges and the future of Nigeria society. Finally, the paper posits that insecurity challenges can be dealt with provided moral education links initial teacher preparation and continuous teacher development based on national integration, social responsibility, moral purpose and attitudinal change with the corresponding restructuring of societal needs and their relationships. The paper recommends elimination of justice discriminatory practice everywhere especially on women, less privileged and minorities in order to create harmony of co-existence and cooperation amongst Nigerians. Keywords: Moral Education, National Integration, Insecurity Challenges
