Rich4god:Bro, no be winning something na. I wasn't grown up in Abacha time (and I don't think you were sef ) but as a proper student of the history of my country there's no way I'd say the country was "safer" when the bad boy himself was on the throne. 1 Like |

Odunayaw: Bro don't stretch this issue. If you compare this period with Abacha times in terms of general security/insecurity, the Abacha times were very much safer than these times. I lived both Abacha and Babangida periods in Kaduna State and I can clearly compare and contrast this present period with that period. QED 7 Likes |

And here i thought Odunayaw be old man lol, I think i was in secondary school during Abacha and Babangida era. But yea, We had so much discipline those days, and def i don't think we have this much insecurity or corruption, i think corruption has become so saturated now, back then not so much, we know who the thieves were. As for security, Yes i believe Nigeria was much safer , compared to now. I remember as a kid seeing cops doing their usual road blocks and hiding money they took from motorists under small rocks on the side of the road, soldiers arrived, found the money and make them do frog jump lol, this was shown live in the news, funny stuff 8 Likes 1 Share |

arantess: No mind that guy .. am very sure he's a Buhari support and so he doesn't want to saw the truth that will tarnish the govt image. Funny thing is, he claimed he's in Niger state, shey na for Niger bandits kidnap more than 100 people on Friday morning. Who them born well to do this shit under the abacha rule. And as a military gov of a state, you don't have to be waiting for the central government to tell you what to do on how to handle insecurity as you will be the one commanding your troops. Even tribalism wasn't much under abacha as it has been under the last two civilian govt tenure. Imagine the almighty Kano that is like the capital of Hausa/Muslim people was having an Igbo Christian as a gov and there was no complain, every one worked with him. Buhari just came in, the first thing he did was to play the tribalistic card and some dumbhead were hailing him. Like I said earlier, corruption wise, military regime might not be a saint, but interms of peace and security, the common man enjoys that in Nigeria and that's what the common man needs now. In fact aside from Obj's tenure, majority of the infrastructural development that Nigeria have achieved were under the military rule. Who you be say they give you money to execute contract and you just ate the money leaving the contract then you will appear in court and faint or court will now fine you 300k on top billions of dollars wey you embezzle.... Or you open your stinking mouth and claim that snake swallow money under military regime. Na firing squad you go face. Shameless civilian govt. 7 Likes |

Rich4god:Na who do you this thing! How does ability to travel safely concern bomb? If I don't think we have security challenge, what has my last 7yrs of commenting on our defense been about. Liking bidexii's post and retweeting on Twitter? I only corrected you about the claims you made about traveling. Simple "I may have exaggerated on my claim about not being able to travel safely in Nigeria but Nigeria is quite unsafe nonetheless" Would that have killed you? 4 Likes |

Odunayaw: Bomb blasts, kidnappings and terrorism in general have now become commonplace in Nigeria today. Those days you hardly see policemen with guns, and you only see them with pistols when they use guns, except the then respected mobile police men who represented the police elite force then. The kind of things that we see everyday today in Nigeria, we only see them then in other countries on CNN and when we watch American action movies. 1 Like |

Odunayaw: You are just a joke. Almost 70% of our Federal highway have experienced kidnapping by bandits and yet you claim that am exaggerating. Assuming the issue have been addressed, I would have understood your point. Abj-Kad is risk, of recent, kad-zar have beginning to experience it's own kiddnaping. Funtua road, same issue, Kat-gusau, gusau-sokoto are becoming a no go area now. Let me not even mention birnin gwari as that's a level on its own. Lag-ibadan same thing, abj-lokoja of recent is reducing. Okene road seem to be reducing too. How then can you say am exaggerating. People travel those road cos they don't have options. If they do, they won't even ply it. Most big men that usually ply Kano to Sokoto route now have to fly to abj before connecting a flight to Sokoto And you open your mouth to say am exaggerating. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Krak: I don't know what that guy is trying to achieve hiding the truth. It's obvious he's a paid agent of this govt, who always mask the truth by saying that am exaggerating on security situation. Every sensible Nigerian who have been in this country in the last 25years knows fully well that our country of today is technically a war zone. 5 Likes |

Even my parents in their 70's still dey go from Akure to Lagos regularly. There's always insecurity where ever we live, fate is fate, it happens when it does, until then, enjoy the luck Imagine a man who spent all his life in Afghanistan without being harmed, only to get killed by a stray bullet in Chicago, poor man was only there to see his daughter's family, she just gave birth. Yet we'd say America is safer, he died here within 48hrs of arrival. That's life. Let's enjoy what's left of it Odunayaw: 3 Likes |
