A country’s security must be citizen-centered with the primary objective of addressing the basic needs of the people for food, clothing and shelter, and lots more as its complexity grows in terms of needs. It must seek to protect and promote the social well being and economic security of the citizenry. Such a comprehensive conception of security serves the purpose of promoting a strong sense of belonging, collective ownership and allegiance to the nation-state; a shared vision as well as a shared future among the citizenry. Indeed, the security of a country must be, construed in the terms of the capacity of an individual citizen to live in peace with access to basic needs of life while participating fully in the affairs of his country freely and enjoying, therein, all his fundamental human rights.
