Background of the Study
Godswill Akpabio, as the former Governor of Akwa Ibom State and the current Senate President of Nigeria, has had a significant role in shaping national security policies through legislative oversight. The Nigerian Senate plays a critical role in overseeing the executive’s actions, especially in sectors such as national security, defense, and law enforcement. Akpabio’s leadership has been marked by a firm commitment to strengthening the Senate’s role in national security decisions and ensuring that the government’s security policies align with the needs of the citizens.
Katsina Central, Katsina State, is an area that has faced considerable security challenges, particularly with the ongoing insurgency and banditry affecting many parts of Northern Nigeria. The need for effective national security measures is especially pressing in regions like Katsina, where insecurity has affected both rural and urban communities. This study seeks to examine Godswill Akpabio’s approach to Senate oversight in the context of national security policies and how these initiatives have influenced the security situation in Katsina Central.
Statement of the Problem
Despite the importance of Senate oversight in national security matters, there is limited research on the direct impact of Senate leadership on regional security outcomes. Katsina Central, as a significant area affected by insecurity, offers a unique case to study the role of Senate oversight in addressing national security challenges. This study aims to evaluate how Akpabio’s leadership in the Senate has contributed to shaping national security policies and their practical application in Katsina Central.
Objectives of the Study
To evaluate Godswill Akpabio’s role in Senate oversight on national security issues and policies.

Scope and Limitations of the Study
