Govt always says it's on top of the situation after bandits have wrecked havoc

I watched one BBC documentary where a Zamfara bandit was training his less than 15-year-old son in how to shoot a gun and kill people.

When asked why he kills people with ease, the bandit said he enjoys it. His child would even be worse than him when he grows up. Nigerians have totally lost their humanity.
He may not be a Nigerian
Shey you know sha

If I say Nigeria especially the north is going through a lot today because of not listening and doing injustice to the Igbos, some people will think I am exaggerating, but if you go back in history and properly look at the timeline of events, you will see a pattern that has been repeating itself overtime.

The major problem I have with most Nigerian presidents who have ruled in the past including the present one now is that they don't tackle problems from the root cause and they are either deceitful, ignorant or not explicit with the truth and that is one major reason they don't really like the Igbos(for being explicit with the truth).
Have the Igbos resolved the violence they created at their own backyards, which have left many communities in Anambra and Imo States desolate?

It is easy for you to see the motes in other tribes eyes and jubilate on it, while you find it difficult to detect the timber in your own tribe's eyes.

But many here dey support hamas. Many here, especially, APC/tulumbu supporters abhor israel because she has the cure for terrorism.

What are the major roles of the governors who acclaimed to be the heads of the security forces in their respective states?

They give orders for the security forces to shot aside all this people perpetrating the crimes. No one should be left out if it top notches too.

They should use the acclaimed security vault of the state to get them logistics to do the needful. Must everythings comes from the FG.

Innocent electorate and invulnerable are dying without enjoying who they elected.

A clear extension of the usman dan fodio jihad silently ravaging the entire nation.
A typical fulanin gida that has stayed and lived his whole life amongs locals ,mostly hausas are peaceful. Some of them don't even understand fulfulde but u see this fulanin daji, e.g the fulani bororo!! Avoid those ones like u would a plague. Those ones are the ones that have declared civil war on the entire nation. They will attack everyone including the fulani's that have settled with other tribes include hausas. They are far more primitive than the nation will admit. They use jaz and are so indifferent to religious duties. They eat during fasting. While i was serving in bauchi, one of them bought a phone and brought it to me to showed him how to go about it. I showed him how to register his finger print on it and the guy swore it was using his blood to activate it due to the vibration. These are the same people we share this country with

South west should be on high alert, as a matter of fact the bandits are already here, they just need a go ahead signal.

Your comparison is flawed. Southwest currently has Amotekun. Many members of the old OPC have already been integrated into Amotekun.
and how effective is Amotekun in fighting the violent criminals and terrorists?


But it's all the same, Southeast Governors messed up, they ought to have adopted ESN when it was formed and used it instead of allowing Federal government to infiltrate it and spoil ESN

Before APC came on board in 2015, ask yourself, was there violence there? that should tell you its origin...

On a serious note, Amotekun is trying o. These guys are fighting terrorists everyday with PAG. Nigeria laws don't permit them to carry sophisticated weapons. Personally I have called Amotekun distress number on two occasions and on both occasions they responded within 30 minutes.

Why is it always about Igbos? Even if an Igbo man becomes the president nothing he can do about bandits and terrorists. You want to fight them and then they will say you are only killing their people? You think their leaders in the north want an end to terrorism and banditry.

When it gets to their turn they will quickly turn it against your people and can cause another war. Make Igbos dey think.

The solution here is state policing. Imagine state police why will criminals operate for hours.
It is not just about fighting, it is about listening, that's why I added that, state police ma not still solve it... and adjustment of ideology will go a long way....

Let's do the state policing first. When boys mount border who go dear to collect. Who will wait for federal before they send military personnel.

And I hear many Nigerians saying state police will be used by politicians to oppress rival politicians. As mass how is that our concern, have they not be oppressing themselves to getting to power. Ours is for them to protect lives and property of the masses first.

You have to wonder why the bandits are mostly attacking the yoruba communities in Kwara South, it seems the Fulani agenda to permanently wipe out every trace of Yoruba footprint in Kwara is back on track, if the yorubas in the SW don't act now...then you will only embolden the enemies to encroach closer
So the attack on Lafiaji is also against Yoruba people. I dont know why some people just carelessly place tribal and religious coloration to every issue in this country. instead of identifying the issue and finding a solution collectively. We would be apportioning blame to divert attention.

For me state Police may only create other problems while partially solving one, the best way to fight insecurity in Nigeria starts with sincerity, so even with state police if there is no sincerity in the fight, it might just be a merry go round...

The ideology will either support or reject the sponsorship, why are they not sponsoring terrorism in Ghana or Togo ?

You think same people sponsoring them in Nigeria will not want to also destabilize those places?

But their ideology in those countries will reject the sponsorship...

You guys don't really understand what is happening in Nigeria, if you think the present government and some state governments actually want this insecurity to end. then you have been deceived big time, I laugh each time I hear people say the government is trying their best but the military overstretched, I just laugh.

They don't want it to end, the government is not sincere with the fight, all the things you hear about fighting insecurity is just beating around the bush, the aim is not to end it...

Let me just give a scenario of how nonsense the fight against terrorism is in Nigeria:

If I am given only 2 options to either join Boko haram or the Nigerian military in this fight going on in the north, I will pick Boko haram...

To me the Boko haram are more sincere in their own fight than the Nigerian government...

I get the ideology you are referring to and it's only the north who accepted that ideology. Did you see the southern br radicalized for terrorism?

To split away from northern ideology which accepted terrorism will not be easy and my point is to do that with state Policing.
