"If you think you are beaten you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't;
If you want to win but think you can't;
It's almost a cinch you won't.

If you think you'll lose you're lost;
For out of the world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will;
It's all in a state of mind.

Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger and faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can."


Have a great day !!!

Corruption every where. Police own is worst.

Is it true police gets promotion depending on the number of thieves you catch?

I have been hearing this since childhood.

Fraud..


The IG of police , did not make the statement..


Biafra police commission can not send police officer to the west


No policeman from the east or north can be posted to the west. You are separate police.
Is the same in the military

The only place military officers and policeman transfer is abuja

You can transfer within your region, but not outside , except to transfer to Abuja or lagos

This is how police and military work. They want you to close to your family
Not the nonsense, of useless transfer done before
