None of them is in direct control of security, they all arrest and hand over to the police controlled by the IGP. We need a state government set up police that can buy and maintain their own full ammunition and can even use heave guns to protect their citizens

I'm not talking about what they do with criminals.
I'm talking about their Modus Operandi.

They can be equally corrupt and cult like.
Pray you don't experience them.

May God give us the best solution.

Please show me where I abused anybody here on NL because of political interests. I don't do such.

And yes, I noticed he had some form of distractions left and right. He wasn't having this interview in a controlled environment or in the studio. It's more like a zoom or Skype thing.

If you were a true supporter of Obi or you want this country to work again, you won't be telling me you'll withdraw your support from him because of distractions in an interview. Did you get the messages he passed? That's the most important thing
at least you're objective,I like u.i don't believe your defense though,keeping your concentration is key in leadership. He didn't show that tonight. After what buhari did in 2015 honestly I'm not ready to support anyone blindly,I need convincing o,that's where I stand now

Am talking about their scope of operations, and their control by the locals. Better to have the governor control police than someone from a fat away zone who may never visit where we have policing problems.

Police have a too down chain of command.
So will your state polices too.

They aren't commanded from afar. They have a state commissioner of Police.

Nigerian governors can't even shepherd their LGA chairmen well you want to add police. That the end of Rule of law at state level. Welcome the new tyrants AKA governors.

Corruption has finished our Police not their structure. Any other structure would still be poor with corruption.

Putting the 3 major candidates to choose from, I believe Obi is alot better than the 2. He's not a Saint, he has his short comings.. but he's way better than Tinubu and Atiku. There'd a reason why they keep attacking and trying to dig out lies and propaganda about him. They know he's a force to reckon with at the moment.

Na wao, this one you're supporting a strategy that has failed and people are still dying from insecurity. What's your true intentions.

Federal policing has failed and thousands are losing their lives and properties, why not support state policing or are you happy about the deaths?

Even if you're not going to vote for Obi, atleast come and receive lectures that Tinubu and Atiku can never give you.

I'm sure the oppositions were jotting things down.

There has to be checks and balances on governors in regards to this state police issues
True but that's why the people of the said state(s) have the task to vote in the right governor and not be partisan

State and community policing is an idea whose time has come!
This should have actually been the responsibility of the national assembly but unfortunately they keep shoving it aside by focusing more on the disadvantages rather than putting on their thinking caps and making state policing a better option!
The truth is that its practically impossible for a central policing system to properly secure our country!
We cannot continue like this forever...state and community policing is a necessity if the country must be secured!

The best way to end Peter Obi's campaign is by banning social media in Nigeria. The IPOB candidate and his supporters would be completely lost.
APC government should ban all social media in Nigeria immediately.

Peter Obi is just saying this because of Politics.The states that are struggling to pay salaries to workers and pension should fund state police?With the federal system of government where it is the federal government paying monthly allocation to states?Police funding is expensive.In developed societies like US states create their own viable revenue generation system and strategies so they can fund their police.When Peter was governor of Anambra state,he was just collecting federal allocations like the other governors!Typical nigerian politician!

I don't know who advices the current Nigeria leadership.

How will it make sense to them that someone who has been living in the desert for all his life will make for better policing than someone who has been living in the creeks all his life?

Some states can support their own policing if allowed, states like Lagos and Anambra cannot allow the slow, heavy policing that has been slowing their states businesses and delaying court processes.

Bringing police hierarchy from the North to police southern States or vice versa is only a recipe for disaster. Let people police the areas they can understand.

Based on the current attack on the Guards Brigade by armed bandits in Abuja barely 24hrs after threatening to kidnap buhari there may not be election in 2023 I think buhari wants to disguise and allow Boko Haram/fulani/bandits to take over power from him in a coup style then he and them will start full Islamization of Nigeria (which is very easy for them because they already have Boko Haram/fulani members in key positions and in every state in Nigeria) the same way the Taliban is running Afghanistan same Taliban buhari gave one million dollars to.
I warned people about buhari in 2015 because when he was president in 1983 he wanted to make Nigeria a member of OIC (organization of Islamic countries) which CAN (christian association of Nigeria) kicked against and prevented.
I believe 2023 election will not hold.

This is something they have decided to turn a blind eye on. The Nigeria passport is almost useless just as the Naira. Nothing functions in this country, absolutely nothing. I don't believe we have a president. Buhari acts like a ceremonial head. The country is run by canals.

If we miss it this time around, only God knows if we will have such an opportunity again


you are very correct - the Nigerian passport is almost worthless - electing either Atiku or Tinubu will destroy whatever is left of it - If some Nigerians supporting these two men are not sincerely crazy, why would anyone in his right senses vote for a man who does not live in the very country he is trying to rule over ?

That was why Haitians didn’t vote for Wyclef Jean because although he has helped his people with so much philanthropy and otherwise - the people told him “Thanks Sir BUT No Thanks - you can’t be living in USA and expect to come here and rule over us” - If Haitians, black people like us could make that decision easily - I wonder why Nigerians are even thinking about Atiku being president. It is the most unpatriotic act to abandon your country, not because of seeking employment to survive but just to seek comfort for yourself and return only to contest elections - what else is a testament of lack of patriotism?

So if Atiku wins and decides to rule Nigeria from his country home in Dubai, how can anyone blame him? after all that’s where he lives and you elected him ? THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST READ!
