Indigenous language, insecurity, communication, information.

The language barrier is one of the attributes that have kept the storm of insecurity in Nigeria. While there are 512 indigenous languages, including the three major ones (Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba), the fear of the unknown in the midst of non-indigenous language speakers becomes another life threat. Having known the remarkable values of indigenous language, including helping in peaceful negotiations through philosophical proverbial statements, nurturing a child from a tender age through the moral indigenous orature, identifying the origin and membership in a community, and teaching the desirable attitude that forbids violence, war, terrorism, etc., this paper emphasizes how indigenous language benefits in solving security challenges and the effects it has in keeping people together as a nation. It reasons that having competent communication in the Nigerian indigenous languages will help citizens understand their environment better. It will serve as a guardian against any threat of insecurity in Nigeria.
