These guys are well coordinated and come in large numbers. They share themselves like 3 per compound with some outside on the street watching and giving instructions. When they attacked my friend's street they go for TVs, laptops and mostly phones and jewelry.
They then escape with bikes.

The question is how can such a large number of bikes be moving so late into the night and are not stopped by the police.

This is scary. We have three police division in that exist alone: Karu, Jikwoyi and Kurudu. How did the armed robbers get away with such brazen crimes despite the huge police presence?

The south is filled with kidnappers, yahoo boys and ritualists.

Would you advise anyone to live there huh
Yahoo boys are not as risky as terrorists & bandits. They are not so much of threat to human lives like terrorists & bandits. Mind u the north are the ones gradually introducing kidnapping to south. Most of the kidnapping videos of victims circulating online regardless of location must have a northern voice in the background. You people are giving birth too much to kids u can't cater for!!!

Where Are The Cows? Is Evans A Herdsman?'


When Funke Olakurin, daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti was murdered instead of Bola Tinubu to make sure that the perpetrators were brought to book, he ended up making fun of the death of the young lady by turning everything into tribalism by showing his hates for Igbos.


Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country




Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.


Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....

However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.

Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.

Sad one!!!

But this was the reason I wrote sometime that police should be respected.
Now they are asking for patrols. Who would patrol if not these same policemen the citizens mock and even assault them in public. There may be some bad ones amongst them, but making public mockery of the police gives criminals the confidence to cause havoc.
Where is that woman who was assaulting policeman the other time? Can she also stand against this kind of criminals? People would hail her online b, but when real criminals come she will still be asking for the police to show up

The criminals who caused this should be made to face the full wrath of the law.


My Post does not supposed this criminal acts. It only emphasises the need to also encourage our Forcemen.
Police will forever be mocked, disrespected and a few times assaulted until they put on their thinking cap to do things the civil way.

They have killed civilians with the excuse of “accidental discharge” how do you want such families to hail the police or should we go down the memory lane of what to lead to EndSars.

The ever garrulous, pompous and supposedly active Wike will never address this during media chats instead he uses that platform to shade his perceived enemies in a manner that displays his level of pettiness.
If the seat of power is not safe it means nowhere is safe in Nigeria it is truly sad.

How many times will I explain to you guys that presence of barracks specifically army barracks do not guarantee security in an area?
No army man will lift a finger until the CO gives the order. They can rob you in front of army barracks and nothing will happen.
And by the way, the barracks are empty these days. Occupied only by wives of living and some dead soldiers.

ambale:
Wetin dey baffle me pass be say upon all the Barracks in and around the FCT, these guys still go away with their crimes

Our security agencies needs to step up their game seriously 😣

Not unexpected!

If we all can team up to destroy our one-and-only country, then it's okay by you and your mentally unstable, highly unpatriotic and toxically cantankerous ilks.

We can't solve a problem by creating more problems.

Problems can only be solved by finding plausible solutions.

Any objective observer knows where your bitterness is coming from but, be rest assured, Nigeria will not only survive, it will outlive all of us for generations to come.

You don't cut off your nose to spite your face.

Una can defend 😀

U mean the same Abuja wey I dey wey soldiers full almost all the barracks??

If this place was to be in the South East now, the story for different

But you know the robbers are senior citizens

And if your assertion is true, then it goes to show that our security procedure is skewed, Karu is just a stone throw to the President's home and yet fear no fit even catch robbers🤔🤔

There is only one major access road that the robbers could have passed; Nyanyan-Jikwoyi-Kurudu-Orozo road. There is a police checkpoint at gida mangoro just in front of Loyola Jesuit. There is another police checkpoint at kurudu in front of Kurudu police station. There is another one in Jikwoyi very close to the Jikwoyi police station. And then there is another one in front of Fidelity bank at CBN junction. The armed robbers shouldn’t be able to escape all of them.
Wrong assumption. This place is very close to mararaba in Nasarawa. Just a footpath on a carnal bridge you're already in Mararaba. They can only be caught in the act. So sad and scaryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

The northern leaders should as matter of urgency tell their people to stop producing children en masse.

They should stop giving birth to children they know they cannot take care of.

These people doing okada, mai shara, shoemakers and all are about to overrun this country with crime.

If armed robbery happens all over the world at the same rate as it is happening in Nigeria then why is Tinubu and other leaders looters hiding our stolen money in London and other cities outside our country?

What tribe are you from that masturbates on their Stockholm syndrome affliction of justifying and rationalising their suffering?
Blame your governor for extorting you Dey. Tinubu already made money before joining politics. He didn’t not loot the money meant for your feeding. Hold your governor accountable for your suffering. You go cry till 2031😂

That's exactly the problem. Given birth to dominate and claim places which was never theirs, eg kaduna. U will see a tiny hausa lady, ask her how many children she has. She will tell u 10. U will wonder how? But that's the reality. U will see such things in the core north. Just to win vote. The redundant children are bandits and terrorists u see everywhere. If the trend not changed, the country will quickly collapse. Imagine dubai and Saudi with manageable family, then wonder where our northern people got their own orientation

Why are you trying to politicize this?

Robbery isn't a government movement but an individual activities.

What Wike does is make policies and develop areas as a minister of FCT.

You might even be the one paying those criminals to attack innocent people just so that you will rush to make this post.

You're always quick to point fingers at the government but you forgot that people are out there causing trouble and destroying government infrastructures.

It’s has never been this bad. All over the nation one form of insecurity is being experienced.
As the economy tanks more and more people at the fringes of society with weak morals are turning to crime.

The poor economy has a direct correlation with insecurity. A toddler in governance affairs will know this.

Even those in high office are compromising more than ever before to retain the standards of their warped lives.

Oga, guess you do not live in naija. All gun licenses has been withdrawn since the first term of buhari when you had a fulani ig and when fulani people were ravaging the country, people were then defending themselves against the onslaught especially in benue. Out of the blues gun licenses was suspended and citizens told to submit their arms at the closest police facility.
Most people that have currently cannot renew not to talk of getting a fresh one. Infact once you try to renew they ask you to bring the firearm and it is confiscated.
Unless the ban has been recently lifted (which I have not heard), you cannot get a licence neither renew. Some people go as far as getting a backdated licence, but the authorities say they do not recognise it.

What kind of nonsense thinking is this.
Government is no longer responsible for security?
The government of the FCT is no longer responsible for security in the FCT?

Then what are they responsible for.
You say it is an individual thing.
Okay then the people should stop obeying the law and take matters into their own hands.

By your advice I recommend those living in the outskirts of Abuja, the ungoverned spaces (according to your assertion) should form their own police to secure their territory. Then they will stop 'politicizing' their security.

People are being robbed and exposed to brutality, injury and death and here you are telling them not to call-out those they elected to protect them.

Better stop encouraging the break down of law and order and call out those entrusted with office and allotted huge resources to do the job.

I already know about obtaining a gun legally in Nigeria. Its been done for a long time now, just dat one will undergo alot of screening, form filling and scrutiny.

But i want to ask, is it the same with America?
Because i know guns are being sold in open shops like maggi and onions in many cities covering the United States!
