Chief Ben Adaji, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Usman Alkali Baba, to permit responsible Nigerians to bear arms for self-defense.

Speaking at a media brief in Jalingo, the capital of Taraba State, he said if granted, the situation where innocent Nigerians live in perpetual fear of attack from bandits and kidnappers would be reduced.

Adaji added that security should be a collective responsibility, urging Nigerians to join the fight against insecurity.


The two-time House of Representatives aspirant for Ankpa Federal Constituency in Kogi State also urged the military to take advantage of the recent court order on bandits as terrorists to deal decisively with them.


He urged the military to use its Super Tucano aircraft to combat bandits and Boko Haram terrorists.

Adaji expressed the belief that if the government creates more employment opportunities and tackles poverty, the vices confronting the country will reduce.

Urging the government at the center to embark on a massive disarmament campaign with sincerity of purpose to mop up all sophisticated arms which may be found in wrong hands all over the country, he asked the newly established Centre for the Control of Light and Small Arms domiciled in the Office of the National Security Adviser to step up campaign against illegal bearing and possession of arms.


Also advocating for the establishment of special courts for speedy trials of citizens in possession of illegal arms, he said such measures would enhance the control of the proliferation of arms in Nigeria.

While urging Nigerians to be conscious of their immediate environment as well as discountenance leaving total responsibility of their own individual and collective security to security agencies, he admonished the leadership of the new centre to deploy intelligence to all land borders and ports of entry to detect the illegal movement of arms into the country.

SECONDED of this wise suggestion, my only fear is that NIGERIAN

are not fully mature for this stage yet, imagine what will become of the

NORTH and EAST if liable to use gun.

Ok

Yes please

Yet The Legendary Lai Mohammed and the mongrels that call themselves senior special advisers and ofcourse not forgetting the resident NL miscreants says, Buhari is the best thing to happen to Nigeria on security.

Never seen sucha collection of self deluding sycophants gathered in a single political unit as APC members.

If I may even ask....who are those he qualified as responsible, for his own sake I hope politicians are not part of it...only farmers to my reckoning are qualified for gun licensing.

Buhari's brothers

Make everybody dey ratata

Sabadon:
Make everybody dey ratata

Grant responsible Nigerians gun license

I like this suggestion,when everyone is armed, bandits will learn to behave

Ha i swear many people go die ooo

yawns

Nope, I don't think that's a good Idea, there will be upsurge in crime and criminality.
Gun violence in America is as a result of second amendment act in their constitution

Will this woman face IGP agree

IGP please here us ooohh


Self defense is the key


I just feel for NEPA people sha

Only the president and governor can do so according to the Firearms act

Haa

It will never be allowed. Even the military and police will not support such a thing.

They realize ordinary people will no longer be defenseless and that takes away their " power ".

But anyways let's go

its not about granting Nigerians Licence to Fire-Arms.

it's about the petty feuds in the domestic society that will now be settled with guns.

its about the heart of an African man.
it's the after-math of such actions.

Nigerians right now don't need that.
An average African Man will abuse it.

The Solution is to vote in good leaders that have the citizens at heart and all this security issues will be thrashed.

Nigerians will abuse such....


don't do that in the shithole

Spot on!... I'll blow off the damn brain of any bandit or terrorist that trespasses!

# nobody has monopoly to violence

Wow this is what have been fasting and praying for...God please grant my wish oh

Allowing gun right will pave way for the quick disintegration of this contraption. Underground legions will be form and armed with guns all in the name of gun right.

Allow state policing

That would nice ...this is what most Nigerians has been waiting for Law and order.

Nooooooooooooo

Nigerians are not emotionally matured enough.

Fresh idea
