crimes arise in places where the rate of unemployment is high.
And to fund the security personnel, like police, govt uses tax.
If we have a booming economy where many majority of the citizens are in employment and unemployment rate is very low, crime rates and criminals will reduce, corruprion will reduce, money gotten from taxes will increase and the funding of security like police will increase and the people will be more secured.
It's simple economics sir. Govt get their money from taxes and excise duty. That's why tax defrauders in sane countries like US and europe go to jail, no matter how highly placed they are, because that's where govt gets money from.
What u have outlined here are excuses for why govt can't provide security. D same excuses which u said govt shouldn't use.

So who are u going to blame for d unemployment which u say is d cause of crime? Is it tax, subsidy and gdp?

U also sound as if d police isn't funded at all. Does d police not get funding? D taxes d govt has collected so far, how has it spent it? Are taxes d only source of govt revenue in Nigeria?

mr man, check the thread. I was not the one u were arguing it.
I only added to the discussion. I only educated u on economics. govt means of income -taxes and excise duty.
U can check back and continue arguing with the person u were arguing with.
If u know me, u will that i will be the last person earth to give excuses for this hopeless government.

This is what you get when someone or a group of people continuously feels entitled to something and then expects everything to be given to them willingly and always. Like Nigeria is their fundamental right to own, use and control.... Abeggi make we split jare. Remote controlled people with their zombie elders. Mumuni youth @arewayouths. tongue tongue tongue tongue

What have u added to d discussion? I didn't tell u that u are giving excuses for d govt but what u called reasons are mere excuses and not economics. If u educated me on economics, then answering d questions I asked shouldn't be a problem for u:

"So who are u going to blame for d unemployment which u say is d cause of crime? Is it tax, subsidy and gdp?

U also sound as if d police isn't funded at all. Does d police not get funding? D taxes d govt has collected so far, how has it spent it? Are taxes d only source of govt revenue in Nigeria?"
