The challenges of crimes and the need to control the same as a way of living up to its primary responsibility led the government of Kaduna state in Nigeria into creating Operation Yaki in 2008 with the mandate to curb crime and criminality in the whole state. Despite this innovative security measure, Sabon Tasha seems not to be recording meaningful drop in crime rate, hence the need for empirical verification. This book therefore, assessed the impact of Operation Yaki as an innovative security outfit on crime control in Sabon Tasha Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State of Nigeria from 2008 to 2015. The assessment is based on the mandate of Operation Yaki; Crime rate in Sabon Tasha before and after the creation of Operation Yaki and the relationship between the same and the existence of Operation Yaki; the current state of security feelings of residents of Sabon Tasha vis-à-vis before the creation of Operation Yaki; the extent to which Operation Yaki has controlled crime in the area; and the challenges being faced by Operation Yaki in pursuing its mandate in Sabon Tasha. Relevant body of literature on crime and crime control were reviewed.
