The governor's hands are tied..what do you want him to do? Carry arms and fight Buharis brothers himself? It seems Buhari has federalized the police...Buhari is evil..

Must you mention Buhari? The governor said IGP, you left the IGP and started masturbating with Buhari's name.

Anyway, back to the topic. It is evident that Buhari does not have control over the IGP. The police have been disobeying Buhari right from day one. First, Buhari asked the police to stop assigning police men to private citizens but till now, the police are still doing it. It has now become so terrible that folks like Jim Iyke now have police guards. Buhari asked IGP to send police to Benue to combat Fulani herdsmen, till now the IGP has not done so but has been playing some sort of politics. In the interest of the country, I think Buhari should resign or become more active and responsible. We need to hear often from him because his silence is not helping to put people's minds at rest.

So you want to turn around and blame the governor who as chief security officer has been denied the cooperation of the Federal Police yet Buhari is using the same Federal Police and military to provide all sort of support from aerial to spokesman service for the terrorist herdsmen ...I haven't seen you criticise Buhari once for his clear bias in this Fulani crime against humanity issue

The IGP is working for himself or for the cabal. Buhari's administration is very weak. It is like what we had during the Shagari era when incidentally, Buhari disobeyed the order of the president. The same happened during the OBJ administration when Victor Malu refused to listen to the president's order to withdraw troops from Odi.

The IGP is a man under authority..He is controlled by Buhari. That makes Buhari evil and useless..
On the other hand, if the Police is always disobeying the General Buhari, that makes Buhari incompentent and useless..
Either way, Buhari is just a failure..

So it's the IGP that told Buhari not to visit Benue to assess the situation?

So it's the IGP that made Buhari Grand Patron of Miyetti Allah

So it the IGP that sent Buhari as a Herdmen emissary to osun some years ago ?

So it's the IGP that ordered our Air force to drop bombs on Taraba villages to make way for invading Fulani terrorist ?

My Guy Buhari is 5000 percent complicit in all these and the IGP is only mirroring his body language

It doesn't make Buhari incompetent. Police boss and military generals sometimes chase personal issues and disobey authorities. Muritala did it during the Biafran war; Buhari disobeyed Shagari's order to withdraw when he chased terrorists into Chad; Victor Malu did it during the Odi massacre, disobeying Obasanjo's order to withdraw troops. It doesn't mean incompetence per se. Frictions happen all the time in governments, even in saner countries.

I have already blamed Buhari for being too exclusive and too quiet. It is merely an act of irresponsibility but he did give the IGP order to relocate to Benue. The IGP disobeyed an order. It is not something new. However, the president needs to wake up and be in charge. It is possible that he is being soft because Fulani is attached to the killers but in truth, he is just a reflection of how tribalistic the country is. Aside the Yorubas, Igbos are just as guilty. Many of them would protect a criminal as long as he is their kinsmen. Many of them, especially those on Nairaland, have no moral rights to condemn Buhari.

The federal government should give state governors the total control of NSCDC. In as much as all armed security agencies in Nigeria are under the federal power they won't work the way they should.

If you can't give them state police then give them the power over NSCDC. governors would have deployed NSCDC to strategic areas. Men of the Nigerian civil defense corps are well trained and can easily be more equipped by state government according to the threats in the state.

I have always wonder at e-diots who call governor Chief Security of States.

Governor do not control the police,army,navy,air force,DSS,efcc,nia,civil defence corps,nothing. The constitution did not mention anywhere that they are chief security officer of their states.

Having established that, Nigeria need to be restructured so that there can be at least local government police, state government police and federal government police.

How do people defend themselves from Fulani militias whom we are told are well armed? How do we defend ourselves from the Fulani President who is obviously protecting his kinsmen by not doing enough?


Those e-diots are many on this forum. They keep accusing the Governor of failing to protect his people. The e-diots belong to the terrorist stocks. They are so ignorant of the Security arrangement in the country.

Police was always a federal force, they do not answer to the governors. We've seen instances where the FG has withdrawn the police detail of a governor, leaving him with no security. There's really nothing Ortom can do if the police and military refuse to act.


Many are completely ignorant of this fact. They don't know anything about the Security arrangement in this country. This is one of the core issues of restructuring.

That is why sensible and well meaning folks have been calling for the restructuring of this country. These incidents are merely symptoms of a failed structure, a structure that cannot sustain advances in population, diversity and economic progress. More lives will be lost needlessly if we insist on this way of life that favours only an increasingly retreating minority. The other day it was the south-south in the midst of the storm, yesterday it was the easterners at the receiving end, today it is the middlebelt where blood flows, tomorrow it will certainly be somewhere else. Isn't it time for all of us to sit down and decide how we want to live as human beings, not animals. If we think it will blow over and it is all about politics or elections, we are just joking. And if we think we can prosper economically with all these uncertainties and instability we need to search out books about countries, their economies and demographies. Every citizen of this country has a personal responsibility to call for the restructuring of Nigeria if they want their children to live here in the future.
