The study, Radio and Security, investigates the role of Radio Benue's Security Watch program in enhancing security consciousness among residents of Makurdi, Nigeria. The research explores how radio broadcasting serves as an effective tool for disseminating critical security information in a region experiencing frequent security threats, including kidnappings, communal violence, and armed conflicts. By analyzing listener responses and engagement with the program, the study reveals the program's impact on public awareness, its success in fostering a collaborative environment between citizens and security agencies, and the various challenges it faces.Findings indicate that Security Watch has positively influenced residents' security awareness by providing timely, actionable information and encouraging community vigilance. However, the study identifies key challenges that affect the program's efficiency, such as limited funding, censorship, outdated equipment, and political pressures. To overcome these obstacles, the study suggests increasing financial support, updating technology, and refining editorial policies to allow more comprehensive reporting.
