We all know that lots top Nigerian government officials are involved in the menace of kidnapping, banditry and terrorizm ravaging the whole country.

That's why Trump is coming to expose all of them to save the country.

No evil can continue forever. One day is for the thief, another day is for the owner.

Every evil that has been in existence for long will surely come to an end. If they are wise, those in government that are involved in some of these things will hide by now. But no, foolishness won't allow them cuz their time is up to be disgraced and exposed to save the country for good.

In Trump we trust. If not for Trump, Nigeria government will never do anything to save the country from the hands of these Fulani terroristz.

I keep saying it that for the government to win the fight against insecurity, they must rid their camp of saboteurs.

Something is not clear, were they given the riffles as vigilante because the suspect said "we patrol with them ask Oga Victor"
If they were vigilantes the army wouldn't obstruct their patrol or even label them otherwise and then AK-47 isn't what normal vigilantes patrol with

Kwara bandits are arrest-able but not and never Zamfara or Kaduna bandits operating for a decade. Wonderment.

This revelation might not be lies because we learnt that the Kwara State government recruited the Fulanis to provide security in some parts of the local government that's presently experiencing killings and kidnapping. When they say government is involved in this mess some people will call it lies
Even if Govt is going to employ a viligante group as joint there is a uniform way they will be identified
Lets now even assume its a case of mistaken identity, there will be a Handler in the govt that will manage, vouch and speak for those boiz in any trouble ... the question is why is kwara govt quiet

They say they were patrolling with a local security vehicle. I can’t conclude that they are bandits. But government officials giving them weapons makes this fishy

The army have their own bandits, government officials have their own and then aspiring political office holders have their own gangs too, all in a bid to making money. No wonder government of the day is unable to tackle them headlong.
hope Nigerians can now see that it's suicidal lowering the standard of leadership, by persistently electing men of questionable characters into position of authorities ? because citizens could be electing their killers, kidnappers, land-grabbers, looters, e.t.c. in the place of genuine leaders .

Some Lilliput will think this is made up but we know it is the truth. Nigerian politicians are sponsoring kidnappers and bandits who bring home the proceeds of the kidnapping for the politicians
The part that amazed me most is the OGA VICTOR among the sponsors!

[throwback Today [ 2013]

Former Head of State and Presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Major General Muhammadu Buhari has faulted the federal government’s clampdown on Boko Haram Islamic insurgents.
He accused the government of killing and destroying their houses while the Niger Delta militants were given special treatment by the government.

Buhari who first spoke in Hausa before the English version accused politicians from the Niger Delta region of starting the current in security in the country by recruiting and arming youths of the region in their desperate attempt to retain power as governors.
The former Nigerian leader said that unlike the special treatment given to the Niger Delta militants by the federal government, the Boko Haram members were being killed and their houses demolished by government.

While accusing President Jonathan of failing from the beginning to address the security situation in the country, Buhari said he has never been in support of the state of emergency in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa state.

“How did Boko Haram start? We know that their leader, Mohammed Yusuf started his militant and the police couldn’t control them and the army was invited. He was arrested by soldiers and handed over to the police.

The appropriate thing to do, according to the law, was for the police to carry out investigations and charge him to court for prosecution, but they killed him, his in-law was killed, they went and demolished their houses.

“Because of that, his supporters resorted to what they are doing today. You see in the case of the Niger Delta militants, the late President Umaru Musa Yar’adua sent an aeroplane to bring them, he sat down with them and discussed with them, they were cajoled, and they were given money and granted amnesty.
“They were trained in some skills and were given employment, but the ones in the north were being killed and their houses were being demolished. They are different issues, what brought this? It is injustice”.

When we ask for proper, constitutionally recognized, sworn in, trained and kitted police services at state and councils levels this is what ignorant Nigerians want...so called vigilantes.

You just put an unknown (to the law) group of people together and arm them without any structure to synergise with existing law enforcement and security institutions, without physical uniforms and identifying tags, without communication channels, without clear areas of patrol and jurisdiction....

That is what a supposedly intelligent nation can come up with to solve it deep and damaging security challenges. Honestly, this is just shameful, disgraceful and damning. A total failure of the government at the centre which is just caught between it's obligations towards the people and it's selfish battles of survival.

We know those that have expansionist, conquering agendas will do everything to resist the need for federating states to secure their territories and citizens, and will threaten the government at the centre with a loss of support if they do so.

But we want to see the kind of bold initiatives taken at the outset of the government on the economic front extended to the security sphere with a similar dismantling of the buccaneers of insecurity just as the oil subsidy and foreign currency pirates.

They might have been employed for vigilante duties. So the Army must investigate well.

What nonsense vigilante is that. Can't you see how disheveled they are looking. Just hear how they are responding to questioning like some motorpark riffraffs.

If you, you, you were stopped by these people on the highways or you run into them in the countryside be honest, will you think they are law enforcement....?

They are lucky to be alive. That the military unit they encountered did not have loose rules of engagement or hot headed commanders.

Do things like civilized people and if you don't know how to, look abroad to other countries with effective, multilayered, overlapping security institutions.

Get proper police, train them, kit them and administer on them the oath of allegiance to the state so that they dare not turn their guns on the people they are meant to protect or sell themselves to dark interest groups.

Any insecurity that seems to be overwhelming a government, that government itself or some elements in it are somehow behind it.

So in other words, it's the IG that's issuing the AKs to all bandits, terrorists and Fulani herdsmen, armed robbers etc. Where's the place of gunrunning in your post?
