Peter denied Jesus and swore.. not Judas... Shed4peace: |
He will apologize. It was his lawyers that asked for out of court settlement. He knows he can't prove any of his wild allegations against Ortom. Clear case of defamation. colorsofrainbow: |
Anyway, point being made is that they shouldn't be allowed to detect crime, investigate, interrogate etc.. just deploy them to respond to situations and hand over arrested suspects to another specialised department for further police work. That's what obtains in USA where the idea first came up and it's working well there.. Any attempt to expand their functions would get us back into the same quagmire festacman: |
Deploy them only if there is a situation. They need not be allowed to conduct investigation or interrogate like they are doing. It should be a response team to a grave situation that regular police can't handle. This is the US model and deviating from this will take us back to the same problem.. Your suggestion that we adapt to our own peculiarities (whatever that means) is exactly what got us here in the first place. festacman: |
Government should direct funds to the right places.. the problem is systemic.. we can come up with funds.. the security vote of governors for example.. Wasteful spending by FG and states should be cut.. SegFault: |
I don't think you understand my post.. nothing wrong with the concept of "SPECIAL WEAPONS AND TACTICS" (SWAT) if Nigeria sticks to the concept as implemented in USA.. So what exactly is your disagreement ![]() festacman: |
Exactly.. dalass: |
Better late than never.. he has seen the light.. Ogbuu101: |
SARS is actually involved in the war against Boko Haram and I don't think they are as monstrous in the north as they are here in the south. I think that informed their protest. The government can retain the ones in the north for the Boko Haram fight while renaming them SWAT. Davash222: |
Below from Wikipedia: "In the United States, a SWAT (special weapons and tactics) team is a law enforcement unit which uses specialized or military equipment and tactics. Although they were first created in the 1960s to handle riot control or violent confrontations with criminals, the number and usage of SWAT teams increased in the 1980s and 1990s during the War on Drugs and later in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks. In the United States as of 2005, SWAT teams were deployed 50,000 times every year, almost 80% of the time to serve search warrants, most often for narcotics. SWAT teams are increasingly equipped with military-type hardware and trained to deploy against threats of terrorism, for crowd control, hostage taking, and in situations beyond the capabilities of ordinary law enforcement, sometimes deemed "high-risk". Other countries have developed their own paramilitary police units (PPUs) which are also described as or comparable to SWAT forces. SWAT team members prepare for an exercise. U.S. FBI agents undergoing hostage rescue training and helicopter fast rope insertion training SWAT units are often equipped with automatic and specialized firearms, including submachine guns, assault rifles, riot shotguns, sniper rifles, riot guns, riot control agents, tear gas, smoke, and stun grenades. In addition, they may use specialized equipment including heavy body armor, ballistic shields, entry tools, armored vehicles, thermal and night vision devices, and motion detectors for covertly determining the positions of hostages or hostage takers, inside enclosed structures" Nigeria's SWAT should ONLY be deployed when there is a SERIOUS, ORGANISED, ARMED THREAT THAT REGULAR POLICE CAN NOT HANDLE.. SWAT MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO INVESTIGATE CRIME; ONLY DEPLOYMENT TO DEAL WITH A MAJOR VIOLENT CRIME SITUATION LIKE ARMED ROBBERY, TERRORISM, ARMED INSURRECTION ETC festacman: |
They only read the headline of a story while ignoring the body.. That's why they comment amiss.. Okoroawusa: |
he's probably on drugs or mentally ill or possessed.. has to be one or more.. |
some of them are actually involved in the war with Boko Haram.. Frank Mba the police spokesman recently reconfirmed this. in the north they are not as monstrous as they are down south which is why they are not hated over there... https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/soldiers-shoot-sars-operatives-who-confronted-boko-haram/dv7tx9l ransomed: |
it's because you never hear of SARS committing horrendous atrocities in the north.. it's only in the south.. so the northern youths can't relate with our protests.. |
he got the message! Ehiscotch: |
I neither agree nor disagree with your conclusion that ese shouldn't be taken seriously.. I however disagree with the premise on which the argument is based.. She doesn't need to be intelligent to be speaking the truth.. We4all: |
Love your response which is why I gave you the 100th like! Olatunji1929: |
But you collect copy of the picture nah.. GOFRONT: |
The charges look very watery with the way they were drafted. A good lawyer will get Ohakim off the hook, regardless of whether he is guilty or not |

Judgement would probably be overturned on appeal.. either at court of appeal or supreme Court.. Burden of proof is "beyond reasonable doubt".. Not convinced the prosecution satisfied this condition.. Circumstantial evidence not hard evidence.. Oyedey4u: |
The guy has followers who are anything but peaceful.. Police should be scared.. chefviko: |

The bandits are not likely to be minded to release the colonel even if they collect ransom. They'd fear he'll assist troops to track them down |
