He lost it along he way, lost the loyalty of his entire command. The Tafa case was his biggest score but he overdid things, got power drunk.

Was that why he was removed from office, or was he removed from office because he did not do what his political bosses (Yar'Adua, etc) wanted?

Would he have been removed if he had become "power drunk" but was still doing the bidding of his political superiors?

Is he the first policeman to become "power drunk" and "over do" things?

Musiwa is too big to contest the governorship election. Have you forgotten he is the President of Western Nigeria with capital in Akure?

That's true. I forgot.

pasino26:
True talk, but these same guys terminate on lookers and unarmed civilians in the name of raids in 'Black Spots' Soldiers attched to me were almost arrested by SARS because they percieve them t be kidnappers. It is only the criminal witha good godfather escapes but police and the dss. Fact is they don't have good prosecutors to start with. Unlike the Military, Police and DSS are not bound to take direct others from superiors without questioning. So my brother, it is a KPEf siuation especially when you consider the playtime most of these DSS guys have.

Policemen and DSS operatives that do not do the bidding of their political superiors will simply lose their jobs. What happened to Nuhu Ribadu?

cool318:
What role/part do they have to play in Being Proactive in crisis before it Bursts/ happens??

What role does which specific agency? Anyway, I think I know the question you want to ask, so I'll answer it.

The problem is the Nigerian environment. Believe it or not, the police and the SSS have been aware of the problem of Boko Haram since 2003, but what happens if you arrest a suspect, but you get ordered by your political superiors to release him?

What happens when you arrest a very dangerous person, but the court grants him bail and he goes out to commit more atrocities?

Do you know that Mohammed Yusuf had been arrested long before he unleashed mayhem in 2009?

Have you heard what happened to Aminu Ogwuche yesterday?

Why do you think that policemen chose to kill boko haram suspects in 2009, rather than charging them to court?


How many of the politicians that have been linked to boko haram have actually been prosecuted?

I'm not saying that the security services have been perfect, but you need to understand the political environment in which they operate

CFCfan:
The new NIA could also serve that purpose too

The DMI (ie, army intelligence) is a component of the DIA (along with its sister naval and air force agencies) and the DIA is responsible purely for military intelligence. Their operatives are embedded within military units (and even aboard ships in the case of naval intelligence). They also gather intelligence about coup plots, etc. This is not a job for civilians.

The NIA is responsible for external intelligence and counter-intelligence operations. They are usually embedded in the foreign service (in Nigerian embassies and high commissions around the world).


Their roles are very different.

CFCfan:
I think the DMI and NIA should be merged, because they kinda serve the same purpose- external intelligence. The office of DG in the new NIA could rotate between a serving military officer and a civilian.

The DMI is involved in both internal and external intelligence gathering. Remember that they also spy on the military itself.

Musiwa, are you the National Conscience Party's (NCP) candidate for the Lagos State governorship election?

Zonacom:
Maybe they are our version of CIA or MI6. Funny enough they seem to lack the basic thing called intelligence.

Our version of the CIA and MI6 is the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Make sure you have fun today.
