Abstract

Nigeria is one of the most populated countries in West Africa and is in seventh position globally. The issue of terrorism has become a common problem in Nigeria, and the government has been applying local strategies to address the situation but has yet to produce good results. The challenges necessitate the effort in this paper to develop a new deterministic model to curb terrorism and insurgency through technology intelligence in Nigeria. This analysis indicates that Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) and the transmission rate per capita are the most sensitive parameters. Also pictured from the graphs in Figures 2, 3, and 4 were drones used to reduce the number of informants of both the terrorist and kidnapper individuals in Nigeria. Finally, this paper recommended the model adopted for controlling terrorism in Nigeria.
