Chaos everywhere, winter is upon us people. Brace yourselves.

Sarkin:
Why is she deceiving herself?
Who said that Buhari isn't working on finding the killers and their sponsors so they can be quickly sent to hell through their unavoidable death penalty?



Although Buhari isn't making me happy with the lack of security in this country.
Let's endeavor to uphold peace and unity in this country and avoid evil IPOB AND PDP

I was expecting this and I didn't have to wait to long to see it.....
From your statement, you know this country is gradually turning into a war zone but because of your myopic political/religious sentiments you will not plainly admit it!

Nigerians I'm afraid that winter isn't coming, it's already upon us. Brace yourself people!

May God help Nigeria and Nigerians in this perilous times and save us from people like you,who will not stand for the truth against all odds.

I love my country but I'm ashamed of our leaders!

QuotaSystem:
Air Force is finally bombing bandit herdsmen, rustlers and kidnappers yet you still found a reason to WAIL

What concerns nonsense nomenclature with the wiping out of criminal bandits in a most deadly and effective manner?

You wailers are inconsolable, sometimes it seems you deserve your agony.

What concerns airforce with bandits, if they ain't a threat to our national integrity and hence terrorists?
What the job of the police?

Stop been politically myopic based on religion or ethnicity. Learn to speak the truth based on your integrity and for posterity sake.

If saying the truth makes me a waiver, then I'm not only wailing but weeping for my beloved country.

From your Monika, I cannot expect anything sensible or tangible from you!
I will not dignify you with a response if you mention/quote me again.

I'm not trying to be ethnic/tribalistic here but let's call a spade a spade.
The government tags unharmed Ipob members (even though I don't support their agitation), who have never killed anyone "TERRORISTS" but brand those elements in the north from a certain tribe that have been on a killing and destructive spree "BANDITS".

The government has even branded the war against Boko Haram as "low intensity war, that have claimed thousands of lives".

They have become a menace that the airforce is been deployed to use air power, yet the government does not want to call them what they really are.

Human live doesn't seem to matter anymore in this country and there seem to be no end in sight.

Until there is ethnic equality in all ramifications, there will be no meaningful sustainable development in this country.

Our leaders are not serious about developing our nation, they don't even think about how posterity will judge them.

This news is annoying and absurd.

For the politically myopic people blinded by religious and ethnic sentiments that have been quoting me or wish to quote me, I have these questions to ask;
A. IF THE ELEMENTS THAT THE AIRFORCE GOT TO BOMB WERE JUST BANDITS, ISN'T IT THE JOB OF THE POLICE TO GO AFTER BANDITS AND OTHER CRIMINAL ELEMENTS THAT DON'T POSE A THREAT TO OUR NATIONAL INTEGRITY?

B. IF YOU ADMIT THAT THEY INDEED POSE A THREAT TO OUR NATIONAL INTEGRITY THROUGH SPORADIC KILLINGS, ISN'T IT MOST APPROPRIATE TO LABEL THEM WHAT THEY TRULY ARE.... TERRORISTS?

If you label me a wailer because I speak the truth and don't share the same political sentiments with you, then you should know that I'm not only wailing but weeping bitterly for my beloved country!

I love my country but I'm ashamed of our leaders!

Hello,
I'm currently having transmission issues with my 09 Toyota Corolla. I feel you can be of help since you've had similar experience before. How can I contact you please.?

Tadeus:
Okay sir

Hello Mr Tadeus,
I'm looking for a clean Benz W123(Benz 230E flatboot). Preferably automatic transmission.
I'll like to know the price. Kindly get back to me.

Trust me this is not the temporary fix, this is the PERMANENT FIX!
Road collapsed in 2017, and it's been fixed 2018.This is super fast by government standards.
This is Nigeria, that road will not be fixed anymore than this. They will budget for it every year for the next 10years and the money will be siphoned.


Ooops! I forgot, the road is in the north and election is fast approaching. It's time for government magic and miracle.
They will not only fix it, they will dualize it as well because of election and the road is in the north.


I'm not trying to be tribalistic, I'm only stating the cold hard reality on ground.

SARS AND THE NIGERIAN SOCIETY.

I am a young Nigerian youth working hard to make ends meat against all odds of economic and social hardship.
I have gotten to the point where I can no longer keep quiet over fears of what might happen to me if I speak up.

The constant rise in the level of intimidation, harassment, emotional, psychological and physical assault, brutality and even extra judicial murder being carried out by those who have been constitutionally endowed to safe guard and protect us; the Nigerian Police.

Every person(youths especially) who seem to have a level of success is a criminal to them.
The most guilty of this is the division of the Nigerian police called The Special Anti-Robbery Squad a.k.a SARS.

Whether you're trekking, on a bike, in a cab or driving, you're not safe! Not even celebrities and we'll known personalities are exempted from their menace. They have now become a growing scourge in the society. Some even refer to them as legal armed robbers and many even dread them more than the real armed robbers.

They(SARS) always act and feel they are above the law. They act with so much impunity and there has been so many recorded cases of extra judicial murders with hard evidence against them.

You don't need to be a criminal for you to be harassed and arrested. Once they arrest you, they frame you up on trumped up charges and if you resist or question them, they use brute force or will even shoot to kill and nothing will happen. All they need to do is tag you an armed robber or cultists. You dare not use an expensive phone (iPhone especially), look good or drive a good car. You become an instant soft target for them.

They raid popular recreational centers and joints, and even bank ATM dispensing points. Looking for victims to exploit, harass, brutalized and extort from. Numerous cases of kidnap and extortion has been made against them over the past few years.
As long as they feel you have money, you become a soft target for them.

It has gotten so bad that you cannot differentiate them from armed robbers. Dressing so casually and dangerously brandishing their Ak47 riffles. Some go about in private cars looking for people to victimize.
SARS officers also act as bodyguards to some persons, delving into land matters, family matters and debt collection that were considered civil cases.

There have been numerous campaigns to put an end to SARS but the government and police authorities have turned deaf ears to them. This clearly shows how insensitive the government is to the plight of its people.

The disregard for public opinion by the government and police authorities clearly shows that some persons in power are benefitting from the corrupt and illegal activities of SARS.
How can a police division be considered bigger than the entire Nigerian police?
The only thing said by the police authorities is that they are going to reform SARS.

When you hear the word "Reform" in Nigeria it actually means "make una learn to live with it".Reformation is just a word used to avoid the underlying issues at hand. It's as good as flattering to deceive.

What steps are being taken so far by the government and police authorities to reform SARS? So far, very little has been done to curb the excesses of SARS despite numerous public outcry for the division to be scrapped. Even the Senate and House of Representatives of the national assembly has spoken out against SARS to no avail. No concrete or decisive steps taken so far to curb their excesses.

When the government and police authorities decide to promote and defend an adhoc unit of Law enforcement that has roundly been criticised by Law abiding citizens it becomes clear whose interest they are serving. Reformation never works when it comes to the police, even the word "force" was officially removed from their name, yet they still carry it along. The Nigerian police is a Law enforcement agency that doesn't respect the law they swore to uphold and defend.

The sad truth is that SARS will not be scrapped simply because it's an illegal cash cow for the Nigerian Police authorities and some highly placed persons in power. They will try to protect it at all cost maybe to the detriment of the voice of the citizens because it serves their selfish interests.

SARS is just a unit/division within the Nigerian Police, for those trying to defend SARS by saying crime will be on the increase once they are scrapped, I'll like to know the job description of the Nigerian Police again? What about the mobile police unit? Does that mean that SARS does the job of the entire police?

Well, in my opinion for SARS to be well reformed, the following measures must be put in place;

1. They must have a special uniform bearing their ID number which should be verifiable. Seeing men with AK47rifles at dangerous junctions at night wearing black shirts and jeans or dressed casually, one cannot easily differentiate between them and armed robbers. Some dress so casually wearing native attires and some bathroom slippers.
They should be given special uniforms.

2. Their roles must be clearly defined. They are called "Special Anti-Robbery Squad". Take note of the words "Anti-Robbery". They should only be concerned about armed robbery and other crimes relating to the use of weapons.
Involvement in domestic and civil matters should be prohibited. Also unlawful intimidation, arrests and violation of civil rights should be prohibited.
The job of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is also to go after internet fraud stars. SARS has no business with that.

3. A special training school should be established for SARS officers and proper background checks should be carried out on personnels. A training school where civil rights are taught as well as social etiquette.

4. The Nigerian Police needs a unified help line number, not multiple numbers.

5. SARS officers should be given special vehicles or special vehicles should be made available for them that will have verifiable serial numbers. The use of private or unmarked cars should be prohibited.

6. Routine mental and psychological tests and evaluation should be carried out on SARS officers.

7. Routine narcotics tests should be carried out on SARS officers.

8. A special task force, panel of inquiry or division should be set up to monitor and check the activities of SARS with the help of the public.

9. The recruitment exercise into SARS should be thorough, with good background checks and evaluation. Illiterates and semi Illiterates should not be admitted into SARS or the Nigerian police.

A government truly committed to the service of the people and the nation will listen to it's people. So far, majority of Nigerians are tired of SARS, as there has been numerous public outcry.

Worthy of note is that the SARS issue is beginning to have a regional coloration which is capable of disturbing the peace, unity and tranquility of the nation. As people of the southern part of the country have been the major victims of this SARS issue.

I know the government and police authorities are aware of the excesses of SARS, but why they've chosen to be livid about it, beats my imagination.

This SARS menace is really discrediting and painting the Inspector General of Police(IGP) as been weak, incompetent and incapable of heading and redeeming the battered image of the police. Even though he's doing his best to improve the Nigerian police.

This SARS issue if not properly handled might be detrimental to the government especially as election time is approaching.

If the above listed points cannot be fully implemented, then SARS should be scrapped!

God Bless Nigeria.
God Bless Nigerians.
May God help the Nigerian police!

From a concerned and patriotic Nigerian.

-Courage. O.

Nigeria is a really messed up country!

I love my country but I'm ashamed of our leaders!

Of what use is this Olajumoke lady to the society, economy or sustainable development?!

Big time trash!

mistacoco:

ruphytelecom:

Maldek666:
This is so true, I did not even take note of this. It is only SW that SARS terrorize the most. I hope it is not an attempt to scare investors away/

Come to SS, Benin, Warri and PH and see SARS in action. U'll know that SW is child's play

Price?

eyeforeye:
During the last administration i so much believed in gej as a person because of his kind nature academic proficiency, but i gave up on the administration when he was scared to take bold step, he could tame or caution any group or person that want to disrupt is government and also allowing his wife to direct the affairs of the then ruling party thereby choosing who and who not to become a governor or a public officer is a shame to the giant of africa, that was the candid the reason i stop advocating for the last administration, the oil we banked on is crashed so what did you expect from any government that will over take to do? he will definitely use the resource on ground, he wont use his personal money to run the economy mind you.

I have a lot to say but let me reserve my comments.

eyeforeye:
i understand your grievance, but the youth also contribute alot to the problem of the great country when you call on the masses are we not the masses? they come to the constituency offer you cash, you accept it and vote blindly, this is the result bro, but the pmb i believed in is on the right path to rescue this country, but like you have mentioned our leaders who are not ready to sacrifice for the nation, let stop the hate and ad complain, let channel the energy we invest in complaining about the government into more productive avenue. Believe me there are opportunities in nigeria than many European country if we can love ourselves.

Double standards and hypocrisy at its peak!
Did you ever make such statement during the last administration?
Leaders that regard their people as lazy and outrightly corrupt?
Mention one thing that's of benefit as been a citizen of Nigeria?
I'm nonpartisan, this administration has absolutely nothing to offer other than self preservation.
No vision or direction. Nothing to boost sustainable development for the future.


I love my country but I'm ashamed of our leaders!

Pavore9:
Suicide or murder?

Definitely murder, his legs were touching the ground as seen from the pix. Observe the shadow of the photographer.

No one will commit suicide in such a manner, it's a murder set up to look like suicide.
