Ishilove: It is easy to pontificate when you are not the one at the receiving. The east is a hot bed of kidnapping and robbery and with the way it went down, the so called operatives burst into the house like robbers or bandits, so any right thinking person will defend themselves. You want to fire warning shots at people they may be armed and dangerous?
Keep preaching, until it happens to you.
That's not the way it works. This is real life, not a movie or TV series.
Ishilove: What a disgrace. Is this how professionals operate?? A gateman "pointed" to an apartment and without investigating or surveillance, you just rush in like sheep to harass a citizen. Like armed robbers. In the dead of night! This is breaking and entering and the doctor was well within his rights to defend himself! What rubbish

We have approved the recruitment of 1,000 additional Amotekun Corps personnel, bringing the total to over 2,000, as part of our commitment to securing every corner of Ogun State.
Alongside this, we are providing more patrol vehicles, electric motorcycles, and communication gadgets to enhance their effectiveness.
This initiative, announced during the passing-out parade of 690 Batch D trainees, aims to strengthen grassroots security, complement federal efforts, and reduce unemployment.
We commend the dedication and discipline of the Corps and urge them to prioritize intelligence gathering and community collaboration while maintaining professionalism.
However, I also remember that he has been involved in controversy many years ago, so I don't know if the allegations are true or if he is being punished for what happened years ago.
PRESIDENT TINUBU COMMENDS NIGERIAN GOVERNORS FOR SUPPORTING TAX REFORM INITIATIVES
President Bola Tinubu expresses his appreciation for the Nigeria Governors' Forum following their unanimous endorsement of the four Tax Reform Bills currently under consideration by the National Assembly.
President Tinubu lauds the governors for their bold leadership and commitment to fostering unity among leaders nationwide, transcending regional, ethnic, and political barriers to advance Nigeria's development.
Thursday's productive consultation between the Nigeria Governors' Forum and the Presidential Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy is a commendable example of cooperation between the Federal and State governments.
He extends special commendations to the Chairman of the Governors' Forum, Kwara State Governor Abdulrahman AbdulRazaq, for successfully galvanising support among his peers for these transformative tax bills to rejuvenate the national economy and enhance Nigeria's investment climate.
He also commends the Progressive Governors Forum, the Northern Governors Forum, and all other groups that made the bipartisan resolution of the controversy stirred by the tax bills possible.
President Tinubu underscores that the primary aim of the Tax Reform Bills, which is pro-poor, is to promote national interests, improve the competitiveness of Nigeria's economy, and attract both local and foreign investments.
He said updating the country's outdated tax laws is essential to this endeavour.
The President notes that the dialogue between the NGF and the Presidential Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy Reform highlights the power of constructive conversation in resolving differences.
President Tinubu regards the governors as vital contributors to nation-building and affirms his commitment to partnering with them to promote economic growth, national harmony, peace, and stability.
He also encourages other stakeholders with ideas and suggestions for refining the Tax Bills to engage with the ongoing legislative process at the National Assembly.
Finally, President Tinubu urges the National Assembly to expedite the legislative process for these crucial bills so that the country can swiftly reap the benefits of the reforms.
