The report indicates that all the official cars and offices that would be given to presidential aides and new ministers have been bugged with high-tech listening devices.

This move the report claims is in pursuance of President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption mantra.

According to their findings, the president ordered that all Official cars given to the newly sworn in ministers should have a ‘black box’ device fitted to track drivers’ movements and also to listen to conversations.

Breaking Times reports that this same directive was given in the case of Presidential Aides.

There are serious concerns regarding the order’s breach of privacy and cost of implementation.

However, the presidency reportedly ordered that the Mercedez Benz availed all presidential aides and the Toyota SUV’s that would be allocated to the Ministers must be fitted with monitoring device.

According to the investigative report, the devices to be used are not only capable of tracking movements at all times, but also has the potentials to pick up conversations.

The “black box” is capable of immobilizing the car if instructed using mobile phones.

Electronic spying on people is global now. I am even surprised that people are surprised. All levels of government including privately owned organisations are into this unethical practice.

What makes you think that your official car isn't bugged? Company phones, computer systems are all bugged. Hotel rooms aren't free either. No one should advise that you need to be more tactful and pragmatic when you aren't in your private room, which itself could also be bugged anyway.

Much as I refused to believe this story, the main essence of posting it. Is so Nigerian can register their displeasure to breach of privacy. That's if there's elements of truth in the story.

GOD Bless Nigeria and everyplace else.

Stop? This is impossible now in a world where insecurity has heightened alarmingly.

What level of callowness can be worse than yours? Were you born this morning? Must everything be viewed from the prism of partisanship? Someone simply decided to leak an ongoing practice to test public opinion.

So, what your saying is that it's owk to tap your phone line and listen to your conversation or bug your bedroom, and you are owk with that. Not acceptable. It can also be use to blackmail and coarse people, bend them to your will. It's wrong. Not acceptable.

I get your point. However I'd like you to know that some security measures necessarily breach ethics. No need for emotions, my friend.

How do CIA and FBI keep America safe? You think they are spirits, don't you? How was the Fifa scandal unearthed? How does Israel stay safe in the midst of so many enemies? How do European countries track down terrorists and keep them in check?

Dude, fighting insecurity has moved beyond merely handing AK47s to some excited force men. Fighting insecurity has moved beyond merely sending some hefty men to scale fence, patrol forests or harass people at drinking spots. Technology rules now, notwithstanding its unavoidable breaches.

In fact Nigeria should by now have bugged the homes, cars, phones, hacked the emails of most prominent Borno 'elders' and politicians, including their North East counterparts.

You cannot ensure security today without invading some people's privacy. One man's privacy could be your physical insecurity. Or did you not hear how Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom states were exposed recently for their spying activities, though it may likely have been for self-centred purposes. But this is the reality of this age.

Please let me stop here. Good day!
