Public Safety

I, O. T. Osawaru, the author of this book, observed that our societies are gradually becoming lawless. The police and other public safety departments were defunded while empowering criminals and making them heroes. Hence the need to write this book. And to shift our focus on the consequence of these acts and bring back law and order in our societies to preserve lives and properties.

Large-scale protests, marches, and demonstrations in cities all over the globe have followed high-profile fatal encounters involving law enforcement and people of color. Citizens have taken to the streets and demanded answers to the chronic problems of police violence and lack of accountability, particularly at the intersection of law enforcement and race in the United States. Many have demanded reform, defunding, and even the outright abolishment of police departments. How did we get here? And what does the future of public safety look like?
