TopNotchTrends:
We would have seen headlines that Travellers were kidnapped if not for timely intervention by well meaning truck drivers.

The Abuja Lokoja road was blocked by heavily armed bandits whose intent was to carry out kidnapping.

From the video, you can see that all cars were parked by the road, far from where the would have been abducted. The person narrating said that the weapons carried by the officers were no match for what the bandits have hence they could not engage them.

The Government should be more proactive to secure the citizens.

Watch and share your views.

We have no govt but administrative looters.

A country that is going through whole lot of financial problems yet its leaders are buying houses abroad,collecting loans and living large while the govern are living in penury and shame.

IGP Egbetokun you see that you don't even know your constitutional responsibility? This is where the intelligence of the famous CID/FIB or Police Special Branch of the police ought to have infiltrate the den of these treasonable bandits cum terrorists to eliminate this menace.

But your obsession is protesters demanding good governance from the failed government your are trying in futility to entrench. SMH!
I understand your position - you are looking at this mater from a logical point of view which is correct - but what makes you think Egbetokun wants to do his job? what makes you think he is not technically in support of these bandits? I am just thinking because all these security chiefs know how to do is wear new ranks and parade and take pictures - the most basic of their duties - they do not want to do it because they do not see the Nigerian citizens as humans - but conquered victims of random state ruled by impunity!

If you are a frequent traveller....
These events are normal occurrences...
A journey of a day takes 2 or 3 days
Cos of bandits and armed robbers on the road....
Once its 8.00pm in some axis ...
Its better to park your car and find a place to spend the nite
And continue your journey the next day....

It’s no longer just Fulani men please
Different tribes are now involved
Re: Bandits Block Abuja-Lokoja Road, Travelers Stranded by forgiveness:
They kidnapped a full peace mass passengers just 2 weeks ago. The soldiers couldn't enforce anything.

HE President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR should as a matter of urgency change the security architecture if Nigeria with immediate effect as.

2nd term tenure is not guaranteed if insecurity doesn't improve especially in his own region.

My 3 advice to improve security are:

1. Provide means of identification for citizenship. That NIN number shall not be used to define anyone as a citizen of Nigeria because many foreigners have that card. Buhari wanted to used that to Nationalize some people.

2. Build border lines. Due to our porous borders, it is neccessary to build a wired fence and trench along the borders. We can use both the army engineers and corpers to achieve these.

3. Decentralization of police. We need local government police, state police and federal police. In addition, forests rangers to protect our forests from intruders.

Avoid road travel if you can around these hotspots. Abuja is surrounded by bandits and the FG is not interested.
Re: Bandits Block Abuja-Lokoja Road, Travelers Stranded by Nodogragra4me(m): 3:35pm On Jul 24, 2024
We don't have the right hardware to engage these elements.


Drones both armed and surveillance,


helicopters armed with hellfire missiles able to pour 5000 rounds per minute


With just this, all menace to our society will be wiped off the face of the earth in a week if each zone gets theirs ....


One hellfire spitting helicopter per zone and drones capable of 14 hours flight per zone


An hastag on twitter for each zone... Once the security picks up that it is happening somewhere the drone will be there within the zone in minutes while the helicopter comes in with death-spitting missiles
