In addition, those who are in agbada use the police, who are their body guards (who are armed) to terrorize innocent civilians. By proxy, this makes the agbada guys armed robbers too!

Are we now glorifying these names by talking 'bout 'em?
we should be talking about inventors in Nigeria.
Those who lost loved ones during the rains of these thieves would be reminded of their pain when reading this post.

No one's glorifying past armed robbers / bandits.

It doesn't mean one can't talk about them though. Are you saying all conversation should be about the positives in life? There's such a thing called "freedom of expression." Just thought you might have forgotten. Even Myra Hindley is still talked about to this day, and she was a child murderer. Jack the Ripper was a serial killer, and his name's still mentioned today. So what's your point?.
