As a result of this, there is need to fortify the social network services in order to secure e-mail communication and reinforce data security. This paper advocates for an advanced and secured approach for improving communication in a social Network with the use of geo-location technique. The system was designed using an Object-Oriented software development methodology and implemented using the server-based scripting language - PHP, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and back-end with MySQL. The proposed system will help the government and security agencies fight recent security challenges in the country.
