Security is perhaps the most important aspect of governance, it takes priority over all else. This is so much so as insecurity affects and has the ability to put on hold every other aspect of governance. The security of the governed ought therefore to be the paramount preoccupation of any government at every point in time. Kidnapping has become a hydra headed monster ravaging Nigeria as a whole, and Edo State in particular.

According to the statistics of the national police agency, children are accounted for the high percentage of the reports about damage from the crime of kidnapping. Child protection means all types of services and programs that society or adults can do for children in order to promote their healthy growth and development process. The balance and harmony in surveillance and privacy protection is one of today's sensitive issues. Current CCTV is permitted on the premise of the clear notification, when used in the legal purposes of policing, security, transportation, and etc. In this paper, for the prevention of child-related crime, wide-area surveillance cameras and PTZ cameras with high magnification were used in schools, apartments, and playgrounds. The system tracking and monitoring abnormal face using the AdaBoost algorithm was proposed. In the method for detecting abnormal face by the use of methods to move the center of the whole image, 95.5% of the abnormal facial recognition rate and the average speed of 17 frames of abnormal facial recognition were obtained. It is considered that this system will help prevent crime through the detection and tracking the faces of intelligent offenders who are emerging as a serious social problem.

Effectiveness of Capital Punishment as Deterrence to Kidnapping in Nigeria

The menace of kidnapping in Nigeria has become embarrassingly unstoppable. The situation has completely gone out of control. One approach that has gained some popularity in an attempt to curtail kidnapping incidents in the country is the amendment of the statute and the upgrading of kidnapping to a capital offence by the legislature in some States of the Federation. It is believed that by imposing capital punishment for the offence, people would be deterred from committing the offence. This paper reviews the crime of kidnapping, tracing the circumstances leading to its present rampancy. It also evaluates the effectiveness of death penalty as deterrence to crime. Relying on the continued, increased and sophisticated practice of armed robbery in the country in spite of its being made a capital offence since the 1970s, it concludes that imposing death penalty for the offence of kidnapping will not solve the problem. It further points out that the real solution to the problem lies in dealing with the root causes of the problem. Practical and effective solutions to the kidnapping saga in Nigeria were consequently proffered.
