Bad news everywhere concerning insecurity

The trend is everywhere. That it hasn't started in some specific region doesn't mean it may never happen or won't happen..

If diligent attention isn't paid to the agitations and concern of the ordinary Nigeria man on the street chaos could be the order of the day as result of failure from the govt.

Now, those I pity are the innocent military and para military personnel cos the anger and ravage of anguish won't be able to differentiate who is innocent or not.. Everyone is carried along and preyed upon when the hammer of unjust governing start showing via unrest and alter disregard of ordinary masses.

If the govt fails to addresses critical concerns and put in necessary action into play the worsening security issue will spread like wild fire and engulf major part of the country..

I propose two solution.
1)restructure this damn country or
2)disintegration this damn country.

Failure to do any of the two will lead to more people dieing on a daily basis..

If the govt pushes the masses to the extreme wall and have no where to go only then would they realize they have no one else to govern cos the same masses they take for granted would be the same masses to come hunting for them angrily and hungrily.

Nigeria is becoming Afghanistan.
