" The Federal Government has said the country’s military manpower is not enough to secure every village in the Middle Belt region in order to stop incessant killings occasioned by herders and farmers’ clashes in the area"

My initial reaction to this statement was bemusement. In the course of my work as a consultant i have seen companies with over 50 Mopols/soldiers on their payrolls, IGP, DPO,AIG and other getting paid weekly, the mopols get 40-50k weekly from these companies. Most houses belonging to the rich in Ikoyi,lekki, maitama, Ph etc have 1-2 mopols guarding them, Some use the mopols as drivers. yet the FG said there is no manpower to guard these villages.

Last week i was taking a walk somewhere in PH and i saw this house with about 4 mopols guarding it. Why cant the rich be made to patronise private securities for Gods sake.

Nigeria is truly a sh1thole
