I saw this write up somewhere..

THE 35 YEARS SENTENCE OF A POLICEMAN
Since the day a policeman start training as a recruit he has be
confined. The life of a policeman is not free.
The policeman is met to sign armed register on daily basis that
subjected him to supervision or check like habitual criminal. They can
run but cannot hide.
The number of night he share bed with his wife is very limited. He has
no freedom of his own. He only escape to see his family and rush
back. This has been since, he was enlisted as a recruit.
The policeman is a modern days slave especially the rank less or the
inferiors or inspector, rank and files. He has no union he adapt and
bear all risk and shit, he reported no complain even when the going is
rough for him. He is subjected by threat and fear of unknown. He see
a dismissal as a death sentence. He is confined not to be expose and
civilise and this led to his poverty of ideas. He could be force against
his will,yet he reported.. No complain.
He could be cheated and still say yes sir....
The policeman is an an individual whose effort and risk is consider as
normal. His mistake can not be forgiven and the glory of his good
performance goes to his boss and compensation is rare.
He is the most down graded and down looked with hatred in this part
of the world is the policeman. He faces inferiority complex and carry
on with sturborness and ruggedity. The policeman enemies are
numerous. Even his friend only use and dump him and he is not
actually beloved by anyone.
People friend him because of his little influence, just because of his
potential usefulness and legal knowledge.
The copse of an armed robber attract sympathy than the copse of a
policeman. What a dehearting situation.
A policeman is an individual whose poverty force to do some unclean
acts and when his conscience condemn his action he encourage
himself by asking himself
"Will I remain poor?" And answers himself..
"NO"
The problems of the police as an organization is cause by numbers of
factors. The public, the police as a body, the policemen as individuals
and the government who don't care about them. He go extreme just
to make it in life as a result illegality and abuse of power set in.
What attract people to join police is not the salary.... But the chance
of acquiring that power and bear arm to dominate.
A patriotic policeman is very scarce in Nigeria of today. The above
mentioned factors are the major causes of the indiscredible conducts
of a policeman.
Victimization and mental frustration which a policeman experience on
daily basis in the organization is more than what people can think,
observe or imagine.
A policeman is dwelling in hell..... His monthly take home cannot take
him home. His pay is nothing to compare with the job they do, let a
lone the risk.
If he is not favoured by posting,he will live like a church rat for donkey
years. The chance of his success in life require a miracle. His bank
account is always on red.
I am very close to many policemen, I have them all around me....
Friends, relatives please just believe my submission it is resulted from
a critical observation by me. It is a research.
The God of a policeman is a great God. He neutralise his risk.
Criminals are always scared at his sights whether on duty or off duty.
Even notorious armed robbery gang avoid them even when they may
not aware.
They only have a confrontational gun dou when they meet on
unexpectedly and unavoidable gun battle. His life is at risk yet no
good life or assurance.
A risky job whereby there is no life assurance. A job whereby his life
is not secure to secure others. A job where enemies are all around u
all the time. A job where his love ones he left behind when he dies for
his country are left to suffer.
Oh what a job.
Advice #
Now another sentence of 35 years is announced and will soon begin...
I mean another year of massive recruitment to the police. I will advise
anyone to consider my above points. And look before leaping. Think
of the potential gains, risk and lost before going for the next sentence
(recruitment)
This is because after u are recruited u are no longer your own. The
police will use u till u rundown like a BlackBerry battery.
I know the choice of job opportunities in Nigeria is a mess. But think
well. Once u are there breaking out is almost impossible.
Dedicated to all serving policemen, God is ur strength and he will
continue to spread his protective wings over u.

Lalasticlala..
