If u talk, dem go say make u go build ur own refinery

My brother, I think you're one person who's been very vocal about the way Dangote does business.. I'm beginning to see your reasoning ooo..

izzou:
That's another clue to show say na Lamba from NPF

Vigilante hold AK for hand?
The same AK that was denied the Amotekun in SW because dem no be forest guards?

Not saying the police is telling the truth but
Na for South dem ban all those AK. Which Fulani civilian JTF will enter bush vs Terrorists in the North without AK?

Especially when Northern governors don say AK is part of the Fulani dress code

CrystalTiger:
This is one of the dirty culture we have..They didn't even wait for the war to start officially, just little announcement and prices skyrocketed..

Now that it's over and prices are down, na #50 reduction every eke market day we dey see..

The solution is for more refinery to come on board and let competition drive down prices

Story..

How come the price of Cement has not come down despite having 4 Cement companies in Nigeria?

There are under refineries under construction. Before those ones come on stream, Dangote should not be allowed to exploit the consumers.

Let importers remain his competitors till other refineries come on stream.

Maybe thats the cost of producing cement to be profitable. There is a price which you cannot go below unless you are just packaging sand into cement bags

Has there been talks about the potential source for funding the state police?

Vigilantes aren't authorized to carry ak47's in Katsina.

So Bayo Onanuga actually open mouth say make people no dey travel by night to avoid getting kidnapped?

He's literally blaming kidnap victims for travelling at night , when the government he speaks for should be providing security of lives and properties 24/7. Na wa o.

That security votes that they have been getting na

Before they have money but they claimed they didnt have powers. Now they have power and money

GloriousGbola:
Vigilantes in those numbers and with those weapons?
and unaccompanied by any soldiers?


there is nothing the police could have done under the circumstances
much as i loathe police - this is simple arithmetic

what does one man with a gun do against 8 men with automatic weapons? now these look like 30 to 60 men. this is not an 80s movie with super soldiers. i was going to say a movie, but a lot of war movies today are much more grounded about basic tactical reality

we are seeing the reality up north. these are the ones collecting tax . between their governors, apologists like gumi , islamist culture, their desire for sharia, and their contempt for religious minorities and their celebration of fecundity - they have fked the north in particular and nigeria in general for the next decade or more, if we are lucky.

vigilante wey dey carry heavy 50 calibre machine gun

State Police won’t work. It will only enable the State Governors to unleash mayhem on their political rivals during election cycles. The Governors will become the employer of State Police(salaries, appointments, etc). It will get dangerous.

What SW Governors should do is give Sunday Igboho a security contract(year on year) based on performance metric. The security network will cover all the SW states and protect the forests.

Tompolo has a similar contract in the creeks of the SS region covering all the oil pipelines from Rivers State to Ondo State. The FG sends N48 billion cheque to Tompolo annually and he’s been able to reduce oil theft and bunkering by 90%.

If FG can protect oil pipelines, SW governors should also be able to protect precious lives in the SW. TANTITA(Tompolo’s security network) has some of the best security gadgets in the entire West Africa(gunships, choppers, speed boats with full artillery).

Are you sure the current amount tbey get for security votes can actually fund a functional state police force?

Bayo Onanuga no too smart like that. He just came up with the most ridiculous excuse that came to his mind to defend his principals failure on insecurity.

ODODO HAILS TINUBU'S MASSIVE SECURITY INVESTMENTS IN KOGI STATE

Kogi State Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo, has lauded President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his unwavering commitment to strengthening security architecture across Nigeria, particularly in Kogi State, saying the President's strategic investments and support for security agencies have significantly curtailed criminal activities in the state.

Governor Ododo made the remarks during an inspection visit to the newly established 21 Battalion Army Barracks in Agbeji-Anyigba, Kogi State, where he assessed operational facilities and interacted with military personnel stationed in the area.

raumdeuter:
If the govt doesnt have money to keep paying for the subsidy, what do you suggest they do?

Classic strawmanship.
Minister of petroleum doesnt decide cost of a barrel of oil but can decide to remove petroleum subsidy arbitrarily?

raumdeuter:

Stop that abeg

raumdeuter:

It won't solve anything, matters will only get worst.


Just legalise arms for citizens. Let people defend themselves and their properties.

They should make use of the money and raise more money internally to secure themselves. The one they have right now they are wasting it

Yes he can decide to remove it because he can no longer afford the subsidy

If your fear is elections, why cant thy use Sunday Igboho network for election mayhem in your proposal? Igboho is not new to this, he actually came into prominence by being a political thug for Ladoja

Placing the security of an entire state or subregion in the hand of one man has the potential to go very wrong

Kaczynski:

Both can work together. Arming citizens and having state police. State police ensure you dont have to wait on FG to make security decisions in your state

There was a thread I saw yesteray where someone put details of how to get a gun license

raumdeuter:

Honestly. Let's see what they will come up with again.

At this rate of lost of lives and properties, oppression of their rivals is least of our concerns now.

How many times have you seen State Governors bribing Tompolo to cause election mayhem?

N4 billion/month puts him above the pay grade of any state governor.

Placing the security of the subregion in the hand of NPF has been wrong for 6 decades. The Police can’t protect you in any part of Nigeria. There’s a capacity gap - they are not even enough to police the vast area of forests in each state.

NPF is also very corrupt. They are in cahoots with several kidnapping groups. They rent their guns, uniform, etc to the kidnappers. Creating State Police will not remove the relationship between Police officers and bandits, you are only localizing the corruption.

The NPF is inadequate under the FG that is why every state should build their own security plan and how to secure themselves. It doesnt make sense that a Taraba man is in charge of security in Oyo where he doesnt know them nor understand them

Security is local, every community will know their land better and the strangers fomenting trouble

How many times have we heard an incident in Enugu/Benue/Jos ongoing while the governor and local officials are calling the area commander or IG in Abuja to place orders for reinforcement and ignored for hours

Now you dont have to call Abuja the reinforcement you need is in your reach. In your own state
