Checkpoints Should Be Introduced Nationwide by Johnjustice: 12:04pm On Jan 22
Due to incessant kidnapping and since it seems terrorists and bandits/kidnappers are moving freely with weapons around Nigeria, it is necessary for the police and army to place stop and search checkpoints across the nation.

This checkpoint should be to check cars to ensure kidnapped victims are not being moved, and to check for guns and weapons.

Critical times calls for critical measures. Terrorists and bandits with their foreign and local sponsors have declared war on Nigeria.

Senate must pass a bill and enact death penalty for kidnappers, bandits/terrorists, and any Governor who refused to sign death warrants is an enemy of the nation and people and should be impeached.

It's better to be delayed in a checkpoint than to be kidnapped...lots of bandits and kidnappers associates in nairaland and twitter, they are the ones maligning the police, and the ones against checkpoints, they want the road to be free, so their kidnapper brothers and associates kidnap, kill and loot successfully.

Nigerians there are terrorists and kidnappers in nairaland, do not be deceived, do not play into their hands, support the police, army and support checkpoints across all states, entry and exit points of all states in Nigeria.

Remember a lot of people feed and depends on proceeds from crime, lots of them are on nairaland and twitter, they don't like checkpoint, they hate police and army, because crime is how they survive. By their comments you shall know them.

Check nairaland and twitter, there is a particular group of people, always against the police, army and security apparatus, and statistics have shown that this group are the number one criminals in Nigeria.

Do not play into the hands of criminals online, they want to kidnap you, loot from you and kill you, do not be a fool, support the Nigerian police and army, give them information, they are the only fighting force fighting for you. Give information to police and army, you can give them information via social media and in their information boxes. Security is everybody's business.

Be aware, don't play into the hands of the criminals online.

Well you right to some extent, may i ask you Sir.....with all the check point in Maduguiri, how come insurgency and kidnapping is on the increase in those areas?

God to the east Owerri as a case study,some corrupt police officer's have turned each check point to a tax collection spot and as well harass innocent citizen who fail to corporate there by leaving the criminals to have a filled day.

We need to increase our air and water surveillance, involve citizens to pass necessary information to aid our law enforcement agency by creating the right awareness (Our national orientation agency is lagging behind), stop inflow of weapons from our borders, enact strict laws as you said against kidnapping finally discourage payment of ransom by the victims to the kidnappers.
The last point can be archive if our security parameters live up to it's responsibilities to protect life and properties thereby creating the right confidence in the mind of the citizen Just like the developed Nations.

Like I said earlier, it's better to be delayed in checkpoint than kidnapped...how much police wan collect from your hand, if at all, if your papers are complete and you are legit?

Do you rather you get kidnapped?

Checkpoints deter crimes and kidnappers.

But of course the CP will give marching orders, the checkpoint is to check for weapons and fleeing criminals/kidnappers/bandits.

It's all about cost/benefits.
Re: Checkpoints Should Be Introduced Nationwide by Prokaryote: 1:21pm On Jan 22
A typical Nigerian Driver will tell you he his only giving Egunje to avoid delay,that's the same mindset of a criminal with weapon.
If we don't discourage the payment of Egunje on the highway and retrain our highway officers, a mere returning of check point will rather enriched the corrupt officers.

Stop being foolish, I didn't mention giving egunje.

Would you rather be kidnapped than delayed in checkpoint?

You are talking of a typical Nigerian driver, that is not relevant to what we are saying, it's heresay.

Am telling you that the most they give to those police men is N1000, unless you have something to hide, would you rather be kidnapped and your family asked to pay millions.

You seem to be a fool. If you don't mind being kidnapped am sure majority of Nigerians do not want to be kidnapped.

Am sure you are one of those criminals that hide on here, disparaging the police to clear road for your criminal associates/relatives.

If you want to be kidnapped, go to southeast, and walk inside the bush path areas, your brothers will gladly kidnap you there.

The purpose of our security establishment has been derailed and defeated. They critically needs an overhaul!
As it stands now, the more they're on the road, the messier the situation will continue!
So long as your suggestions center on cutting off branches instead of uprooting the Tree, the problems will persist.
Nigeria was never created to work. Know this and know Peace!

You created a thread for people to make an input, you end up using a foul language....I thought I was having a good contribution to a civil human being post.
You are simply part of our problem and from your input,you are one of the corrupt police men spoiling the image of the good and responsible officers since the #1000 you mentioned is not Egunje....agbaya!!!

Amen!!!
It's quite unfortunate that most Nigerians are not yet aware of the situation they are dealing with...!
A situation where Guns are sold to criminals with the understanding that, "If just one of you is foolish enough to be caught, I will personal lead my boys to your hideout to finish y'all off!" You want to entrust the security of the country in the hands of such a person?!
The Boys on the other hand will be like, "Oga is seated in his air-conditioned office making deals with criminals, raking in Billions only to give an impracticable orders from the comfort of his office, while we are standing all day long under the harsh weather as disposable easy target to be paid peanut - we too sabi make deals now?!"

take your hogwash, your concoctions and generalisations from the pit of hell, to your village. we are talking of nigeria not your village. please stop derailing my thread, this thread is to seek solutions, for patriots only. Everyone knows Nigeria have a serious problem with jihadists, bandits, who are kidnappers, everyone knows Nigeria have Iswap problems, bokoharam, so let's face reality and confront them, not these stories you are talking...
