Kobojunkie:

What evidence do you have for this claim of yours??

A member of NASS, representing Sokoto State, has a lot of "CONTROL" over unfolding events in Kaduna State?

Kobojunkie:

Sure, if you elected them to lead in that particular area.

Tambuwal was NOT ELECTED to tackle the people's security. All NASS can do is put in yet another law but we already have enough laws. Implementation is still left to the Executive arm, which is in charge of Security.
If you need someone to blame, blame the President who you gave billions to, to SECURE You and your Family, but himself lives comfortably in the bubble called Aso-Rock, away from the chaos, that most Nigerians have never seen before.

Kobojunkie:

A curfew in Kaduna DOES NOT stop people from relocating. Tambuwal's position is NOT THE ONE that gives him the power to relocate his family. Every Nigerian out there can relocate, even those right in the heart of Kaduna.

How did he use his power for pete's sake? Moving is a POWER game? When?

Reference:

Okay let me try in as few words as possible. The National Assembly which he heads represents the shortest distance between the ordinary man and the centre which controls the security apparatus. If you understand this dynamic in the light of the fundamental reasons behind this insurgency then you are half there.

I reapeat again. This battle going on is for the soul of Nigeria. That's why after every mindless carnage BH is quick to remind us of Jos and lately Kaduna. Have you stopped to ask why and if so please be reminded again. This problem cannot be solved by the Executive because of obvious bias but by both Houses because their members represent both sides of the argument BH is afraid or unable to spell out because it is simply ridiculous.

I know you're Notorious on Nairaland for Spewing a truckload of Crap but your post above takes the Cake for the worst form of reasoning. A 24 hr curfew(restriction of movement) is in place in the State and he violated that Curfew to Evacuate his family, yet you don't find his action(for a public officer) to be Insensitive to the hordes of families both indigenes and non-indigenes trapped in the State.

Kobojunkie:

Um . .. all the House can do is CREATE THE LAWS . That is all the CONTROL the National Assembly has when it comes to ensuring Security in this Nation. We already have good laws-- many as strong as those obtained in advanced societies. What we lack however remains a WEAK head in the executive arm of our Government. That is why implementation takes place and if those existing laws are not being put to use, what can National Assembly do about that? Impeachment?

Please explain yourself better. What do you mean when you say the problem cannot be solved by the Executive?

We have had the laws ready to go. We have a police force, the armed forces, all UNDER THE CONTROL of the Executive. Talk of funds, Billions of Naira each year allocated to the Executive to help it accomplish it's security mandates. We recently approved one of the biggest security budgets ever. What more do we need to give the Executive to get this job done? Or are you suggesting we instead TAKE away all much of that CONTROL- all that power and instead give it to, maybe the State Governors, or the National Assembly? What are you saying?

You are trying to argue that somehow fundamentalism changes the rules. Well, I don't buy that at all because fundamentalism is not unique to Nigeria so I see no reason why the rules should change. Why we should no longer require that actions be taken to curb the problem.

Reference:

Okay I give up. But can you give 1 (one). Just one practical suggestion on what should be done that isn't at the moment to tackle this problem. Be practical. Just one.

Reference: And while you are at it kindly name one country that has succeeded in rooting out fundamentalism (whether religious, political or ideological) by force of arms, internal or external security alone, globally.

Kobojunkie: Decentralization of the police force, at this time, is a terrible idea. If anything, you would further be dooming citizens who are still fighting to get their governors to care about them.

My brother...it is the long term solution. Of course you wont do it GBAM, like that.

You hand over different duties little by little, and have an overall supervisory and internal investigative federal unit.

No one is more interested in protecting their residence and business places like the owners of the land. In the long term, they will figure it out.

991: an hausa man moving his family out of kaduna while some ignorant igbos are still there? hhmmm!!

My brother, am still wondering why my Ibo brothers and sisters are still there. I know its not easy leaving ones investments and eloping but this is a matter of life and death. Can't they understand this simple fact?

oloriooko: Who is complaining about the stoopid man moving his family? The koko we are saying is that as number 5 or 6 person in the country, you should proffer solution to the problem created by his folks rather than sneakingly relocating his family.

Please then tell me where selfless service is here? Our leaders are selfish senseless and greedy with no iota of love for the nation they purport to serve. It's glaring these kind of leaders never understood what leadership is all about before jumping into it, all they see is the fortune and power that accrues to them, what a shame

What are you folks high one? Profer what solution? What Solution can he profer again? The laws are there to get the job done? What more do you need him to do? TAKE CONTROL OF THE POLICE FORCE and Send the Police to Do a better job?

Seriously why do you RESIST KNOWLEDGE? it is all around you (ONLINE) Spend sometime learning what your members of congress can or cannot do. That will help you better weigh their responsibilities and know where to best direct your grouse?

And this proffering solutions idiocy -- you folks really need to get for yourselves. . . lives!!! That is not your job or the job of everyone. Nigeria already pays so many people millions of dollars to, not proffer, but RESEARCH VIABLE SOLUTIONS for most every issue and these people are connected to your President. His advisers are meant to be the best of the best out there in providing information to deal with all issues that exist and may arise.

Stop Proffering idiocy claiming they are solutions, in an internet post online thinking that you are somehow elevated in human ranking by doing so. Only silly people do such . . . Solutions are meaningless if they are never applied them to actually solving a problem or the problem. You might as well be writing your so called solutions on a piece of paper and wiping your arse with it right after.

oloriooko:

Are you one of his imports from kaduna cos you sound so touched and angry about the topic
Don't you worry, your brother should just keep shipping you guys all around the world and let's see how far he can go.
With all your unparalleled knowledge about governance yet you are so blind to the basics of responsibilities of leadership, what a shame

Talking of being blind to the basics of responsibilities of leadership, I suggest you pick up a copy of your Constitution, and EDUCATE yourself first on the very basics you claim another is blind to. Spend a week of your online time learning what your constitution really says rather than coming on here blathering about on what you clearly have no clue of.

oloriooko:

So what your all abusive brains could produce is that even as the number 6 citizen of the federal republic of Nigeria, when you see your country on fire for as long as it has nothing to do with your constitutional responsibilities, you should fold your hands and just watch
So the brainless guy cannot use his political weight to broker peace with these maniacs of which you may not be unfriendly with cos of your fiery concern for the dummy speaker.

The only time your brother and probably bread-winner Tambuwal would talk about BH was when there was a reprisal attack by the Christians in kaduna where his family once resided coincidental? No I do not think so and all he could do was to flee leaving others to perish and then come out to say he wants to become the president of this country........olosi aboki msweeeeee

Kobojunkie:

Yes Moroenicus, I am now an import from Kaduna for telling you to use your head a but more. Clap for yourself now!
