The way northern states are shutting down telecommunications networks to curb banditry is alarming.moat recently Sokoto shut down its network with the claim that it's curbing Banditry activities.

how does the shutting down of telecom masts and networks solve the issue of violent bandits unleashing mayhem on innocent people in Nigeria.

Lol, u dey mind ds govt ? Another good question is how does shutting down Twitter in naija makes naija good? How does shutting down abokifx site improves naira.....if naija government happens to own Arsenal fc, I bet they would shut down livescores and flashscores to improve the development of Arsenal tactics

Don't mind the demonic Buhari govt ...they have a plan to start putting off networks in any community they want to destroy

Buhari Is A Big Joke To The Nation.

It is a bit of Aboki Logic and impossible for infidels to comprehend.

So that you won't see a video of the soldiers killed by the "bandit". You forgot that lie mohd already asked that the media stop posting those videos and they refused. If you cut network, they will be no live video and if you post it after, they cN claim it was an old video

Well I think it is to reduce communication between the bandits, their sympathizers and partners.

it will reduce Communication...


But please what's the usefulness of the NiN wey dem say mak we link to our sim...

cos I don't know how the linking of NiN to our sim nd using it to track bandit will come to work when the network is switched off I think this Govt looks confused...

lol don’t tell me u don’t know that bandits uses Satellite phones,at least they are deep in the forest where network don’t come easily,so unless Ure dumb enough to believe anything,shutting network can’t curb banditry

Confusion every where

To me, I think the linking of SIM cards to NIN was a good strategy until private individuals started using it to make money. For example where I stay I no okada riders who are from Niger but were able to do NIN by claiming Nigerians from northern part of the country. To me these alone as spoil the work of the NIN

Well, I don't see any logic in that but if that is the solution to the problem let it be.

And you follow them go school oh, see the kind of question you are asking?
No wonder the country is a mess for the kind of educated people we produce

Bandits coordinate attacks, kidnaps and evade the millitary using gsm communication.

Once it's switched off, their moles, spies, spotters and members can't coordinate attacks, kidnaps or recieve information on the advancing troops.

They fall back to "word of mouth" to get information which takes a far longer time and isn't effective or reliable.

May hatred for the President not block people's ability to think, amen.

Yeah they use Satellite phones and shutting of network doesn't curb banditry but reduces the communication between bandits within that state. As u may know not all of them would be using satellite phones.

How does your seeing video of soldiers killed in battle by bandits make the country more secure?
Nigeria has the largest concentration of useless unpatriotic citizens of any country in the world

Am surprised ooo,it's only Nigeria that is shutting down networks to chase criminals

Am so ashamed of this country!!!

So shutting down networks is the best way to stop bandits?

So u are happy that networks are been shut down? and that's the best way to handle bandits Abi?

Some kids have invaded this platform with their childish thinking!
Do you think kidnapping would gain ground in Nigeria without telecommunication networks? How would they contact their victim's family for ransom? How would they communicate with their members and informants outside the forests? What has made it possible for them to get arms and ammunition?
Those against the telecoms shutdown are sponsors or sympathizers of the criminals and by extension are you from Sokoto or Zamfara or Katsina?
Why are you crying more than the bereaved?

SO information will not continue to spread.,i wonder what could be happening in those places now where they can barely reachout for help.God have mercy.

Shebi they told us boko haram has being defeated, how has that made nigeria secured.

Talking about patriotism, is your president patriotic?

Respect your self oh

This is an archaic approach to solving the problem of insecurity.What happened to the use of artificial intelligence-use of drones, GPRS tracking etc?

It doesn't , it only stops the victims from exposing on going attacks
