sammy329: If a bomb was planted at the checkpoint, U can use phone to detonate the bomb from anywhere in the world. Beside why would u want to detonate the bomb at the checkpoint when u are at the checkpoint, unless u are a suicide bomber. But a suicide bomber will not go through that stress of using a phone when they can strap the bomb to the body. 2 Likes |

Cellphones were used to ignite bomb explosions'... So they are scared... especially in cases of suicide bombers that targets police checkpoints... |

cyberdurable: Use your brains (if you have any) For security reasons ...what if someone calls ahead telling the bad guys how well fortified the Police / Army guys at a checkpoint are? This isnt a fictional scenario it has happened MANY times... Try it with the military and you would get your answer when they give you a brain reset. Shebi na you no be fear fear. We sabi una. You would be shaking at Dubai and USA airports shouting YES SIR YES SIR. You turn tiger once you land in Lagos. 4 Likes 2 Shares

Bros. I tell you, there is no accountability on the part of security forces, and this has emboldened them to do as they please. Actually it is a foolish thing arguing with someone carrying a lethal weapon when your body is not resistant to bullets, you don't know the mood of the person in that moment and the damage could have been done before you get a help 2 Likes |

lonelydora: They are telling you something you are still claiming right. Take it from someone who's served in higher agency than the police... They wanted to do in a work mate despite identifying himself with his ID. If not for the SOS system he activated on his phone that got us to respond fast only God knows what might have happened. According to his account he said the police got mad at him because he was at a higher agency, am not even talking about the DSS..... That alone shows you how messed up they are 5 Likes |

Bornsinner7:it's audible to the blind that the country is a failing state. Besides, saying sorry won't take anything from the guy, besides it's the wisest thing to do. Arguing assertively with a NPF personnel who is hungry,underpaid,frustrated and ill-trained is foolishness. Better safe than sorry. |

lonelydora: Just like to be within an embassy is considered to be on the home country is the same way a checkpoint is considered to be a barracks. There is military or police law in the barracks and it extends to check points. They make the rules. Being a Nigerian means you should learn not to challenge any one with more powers than you. It doesn't matter what is right or wrong. It will help you live longer. 1 Like |

lonelydora:Well, I have also thought about it. The problem with Nigeria is that our law is archaic. I believe if our lawmakers are up with time, such law banning calls at checkpoints would have been suggested if it's not there already. From ruminating about the matter, I realised that mobile gadgets can be use to detonate explosives like IED, suicide vex and car bombs and it can be used to indicate a position for possible missile and/or mortar attacks. So, in hot zones like many places in Nigeria today, the army and police are always wary and sometimes scared of people using them. 1 Like |
