Abstract
This piece interrogates the role of literacy, motivation and paradigm shift in making the National language policy a success: a policy that is a step towards supporting and preserving the nation's linguistic diversity. When an enduring policy is made in any nation or clime, no doubt, it is for the living and yet unborn in that geo-polity. This is the situation with the National Language Policy, which has been in the school curricula for quite some time now.

Abstract
Security, as a concept, has always been an all-time essential factor in human and even spiritual affairs, encompassing and pervading all areas of existence. This is because security is of vital importance for the survival, growth and development of any cultural, social, political, economic and even traditional system. This discourse interrogates the relationship between literacy, language, and communication, analysing how security affects cum drives information within the society, and how the information transmitted within and outside any geo-polity plays a role in promoting or endangering security.
