Abstract
This paper attempts to locate security within the enclave of the transformation agenda of President Good luck Jonathan. It empirically presented Nigeria’s present challenge of insecurity, and identified the weak state of our security apparatus as being among other proximate and remote factors of insecurity in Nigeria. Specific areas where GIS is applicable to internal security were harped upon. The paper recommends, inter alia, that there is need for GIS departments to be established by the Federal Government in all police stations in Nigeria to provide spatial analysis for intelligence generation and security planning.
