Why do we deploy police with guns to protest and riot scenes?

When in other countries they deploy police with body gear, baton and shield. Through that, you will inflict more pains on hoodlums than using guns, because you are confronting them Directly. By this no death with be recorded except injuries.

Why do police shoot to disperse crowd. This country is a banana republic. We are still in stone age.

I have a feeling that politicians have looted funds meant for the unit of police responsible for dealing with violent protests.

These are the fundamental issues we should be discussing instead of yoruba vs ibo, Yorubas are burning lagos. We left fundamental issues and resolve to ethnic bashing.

If we run away from fundamental issues, we will still run into them again. Its quite unfortunate that the president is not concern to address these issues. He is still seeing this tribal war.

Those looting and burning could have been averted. But the country is sick, because we dont have a working system. COVID19 and other pandemics no sabi hausa or yoruba. Lets ask for good healthcare. Hausas should not take offence in asking buhari for healthcare. When a country have a good healthcare, its for the benefit of both hausas and igbos.

Lets address issues directly without tribal shenanegan.

God bless Nigeria #endsars.

PS: Please don't derail this thread with tribal rants. Lets move forward.

Number 1:your police force is largely underfunded,understaffed and I'll equiped
