Abstrakt: The relationship between development and security has attracted a healthy dose of scholarship since Robert Mc Namara set it on steam. With the Brundtland Report, the conceptualization of development acquired an almost perfect adjective - "sustainable" - which linked the present and the future in an unbroken tapestry. However, scholarship appears unsuccessful in integrating the Brundland Report within the framework of McNamara's thesis. Indeed, an exclusive relationship between the security and sustainable development appears scanty in existing literature. The subject even suffers an almost complete negligence when the security of children is considered in the geographical domain of third world countries. The paper sets out to remedy this neglect by examining the link between the security of the Nigerian child and sustainable development in Nigeria. It addresses the security of the Nigerian child as an independent subset of human security in Nigeria. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
