Again, it all sounds nice but most oppositions cannot even trust the State Govs not to talk of the Local Govts. If the LGAs do not have autonomy, they will be under the direction of the Govs. You mention Western societies, and I can speak to that. Mayors have their degrees of autonomy, and their own policing and they have civilian boards and organizations that check for police misconduct...and still, there is widespread discrimination against blacks and minorities in the so-called Western societies not to talk of Nigeria. I like when we have informed discussions and debates like this, so I appreciate you for engaging.

In terms of the agricultural sector, mechanized farming is the key to producing food on the large scale not relocating thousands of people back to clashes with the hope that things will be resolved. If there is a miscalculation on the part of the Govt, people will forget it was once a good idea and blame the Govt. Relocate people away from conflict areas, mechanize agriculture that will need very few people and very few police/soldiers to protect, create militarized zones and shoot to kill. We are playing with danger by electing leaders that say what people want to hear even when to some of us, it makes absolutely no sense.




Sir I don't understand when you say victims should be relocated from conflict zones and agriculture mechanized and militarized zones with few people created. Do you support driving people away from their ancestral land and resettling them elsewhere? Don't you agree such solution would create more problems because the new location may be other's ancestral land and the locals wouldn't accept it

As then governor of Anambra state, Obi established an IDP camp for Kogi people displaced by flooding at Ajayi Crowther Onitsha and catered for their upkeep and security,he also visited the affected parts of Kofi state then by canoe.

I repeat, Nigerians have 1 more chance. If they fail this time. They shouldn't blame anyone.

Many months ago, years ago, I had wondered during GEJ why people kept dying without any viable solutions. In my own little analysis, I came up with a suggestion I had wanted to pen in an article, remove everyone from the outskirts of towns and villages, relocate them until you can guarantee their safety...they go after the criminals. By so doing, you prevent lots of collateral damage and keep people safe. As a matter of fact, I felt the govt should condemn some areas, level the villages, and create militarized zones that if anyone crosses, shoot to kill. To prevent an inter-village crisis, I felt this idea would work as well.

Years later, govt created the IDPs to allow for relocations. After many years, those in Borno State are finally being relocated back to areas built by the Govt with safety and protection among the conclaves.

The issue I have with people like Peter Obi is...they don't think about issues deeply and just run about saying what should be done or not be done. If he becomes the President and relocates all these people, it would cost more to keep them safe and someone like him will be reluctant to create IDPs. It might seem like a great idea or make for Monday Morning Talk Show for folks that don't do research or think deeply, but when you look at the idea behind IDPs, it has kept lots of people safe. I do think the Govt should have very good schools, hospitals, and proper welfare within the IDPs, but closing them down without say ...recruiting soldiers, police, and security infrastructures and putting in place so many things is a recipe for disaster. Leaders do not think about what is popular, they do what is RIGHT. I pray we choose and vote wisely. Obama was a good example...he was less effective in solving lots of issues...even ObamaCare had to be saved from itself.


Peter Obi is against " continous stay" of people in IDP camp. A camp as its name is temporal but the continuing stay of people in IDP camp shows a weak government response to the situation. They should be a well defined timeline for an IDP camp. If government fails to meet the timeline, they should be communication to the citizens that's how a responsible government should be. The "permanent camps" shouldn't be. We all Nigerians, no citizen deserves to stay in that camp. Peace

because your and your family are not living there. Obi gave his personal hard earned money to people living in squalor, in the most deplorable state because of insecurity but according to you, it is not a good gesture because you are not affected.

You are a fool.

How did you spend your Christmas? Surely, you were at HOME with your family having the best food and drink you can afford, right?

How then was it wrong to go and be with those who had no home, no food and no family to be with on Christmas day?

Thr wickedness that you people are promoting in Nigeria will arrive your family and follow you for centuries.

Your idea lack deep thoughts...
Do you think establishing a permanent stay for the IDPs within the camp will bring a lasting solution to insecurity? Haven't you seen or heard where IDPs camps were attacked on different occasions. Tackling the economic challenges remains the most viable solution to insecurity issues. When your country is the "world poverty capital", what else do you expect? Poverty is the leading cause of all forms of social-vices...
