This is not a good omen for a government that prides itself as government that creates employment opportunities

I think this is a wise statement by Buhari. We need more police force rather than Peace corps. They won't be respected by Nigerians and there would be tendencies to abuse their powers. There should be community policing. There should be police in every nook and crannies of the state.

who cares what you do or not do, just go to your 150 Cows...diversionary tactics from the Dapochi 110 OR 105, the religious crisis in Kaduna, the sidelining of Tinubu.

Na today duplication of duty start for Nigeria? That's a senseless reason.
E.g.

1. The President has a SSA who has a P.A the P.A also has his own P.A


2. A minister has a SSA & P.A, his junior minister also has his SSA & P.A, the same ministry also has a Permanent secretary who in turn also has his own P.A etc. Which duplication of duty pass that one.

I still don't understand the need for peace CORP f
Till date. How can a man register an organization as an NGO and start training them to be security men few years later. It's not done anywhere. The commandant should return all the money he collected from jobless Nigerian.

Duplication, it is.... We can't have Police, Customs, Civil defence and the rest of them and still create Peace corp. What would be their job?

We can't keep creating unnecessary organisations because we want to create employment without considering its sustainability.

Peace Corps would be another initiative for financial hemorrhage.

It's a fact, Nigerians join these organisations to escape unemployment as opposed to passion to serve. The Nigerian Police Force leave much to be desired. Why add another one if the existing ones are not effective and efficient? Dearth of personnel and equipment faced by existing ones can be re-enforced through effective recruitment process and wholesome revamping of the system.

There are too many of these paramilitary security outfits in Nigeria becoming a menace instead of supplement and backup to the police and the military. They all will still toe the path of the police if the existing ones are not checkmated.

I couldn't agree more. Let the applicants join the Police, and there is need to revamp the Police for effectiveness

How many people to one security man in Nigeria? Reduce the salaries of the elected and use it to fund peace Corp, Nigeria will be better off with good security and gainfully employed youths.

What will Peace Corps offer sef?

We have NPF, Armed Forces, NIMASA, DSS, NIA, FRSC, NSCDC and others.

What impact will Dickson's Peace Corps bring?

I remember Dickson. He hijacked my Secondary school in 1990 in the name of Cadet Corps. Had to be pursued from the school. I will not go into the rubbish that went on in that school while he held sway.

I'm surprised he's still at it after all these years.

You are a typical Nigerian
