He should sack all the officers involved in this mess. No need for any investigation if you askk me

Then after the investigation, a committee will be set up to look into it.

chiover: He should sack all the officers involved in this mess. No need for any investigation if you askk me

Not just sacking all involved, a proper investigation should be done and those found wanting should be made to face the full wrath of the law. That way, whatever settlement the vandals promised them that gave them the guts to forment such evil, would be rubbished.

Seems GEJ has realised that committee setting doesn't work.
I don't trust him anyway, cos that may be what he may finally turn to

Then that's good

I trust the secret police, the SSS. More than all of the security agencies,I believe they will do a good job,what happened btw the Police and the NSCDC is a National embarassment that must all be frowned at especially at this trying times.

D truth will come out
