Every 2-3 months, anytime the IG of Police makes headlines in this country, it is usually for one of three reasons: a new appointment, removal from office, or ban/permit of tinted glass.
From the days of Hafiz Ringim to this day, almost every IGP has revisited this issue.
I doubt if thereโs any aspect of policing that receives consistent attention as this.
So bandits now have the audacity to record themselves raping abducted women in this same country, and there is still no state of emergency?
The President is not addressing the nation. The service chiefs are not providing updates. Citizens are not outraged.
What exactly does it take before we treat this as the national emergency that it is?
Instead of uniting to fight a common enemy terrorizing lives and properties, weโre busy seasoning insecurity with tribal and religious bigotry.
No generation of politicians has ever been luckier than this.
While Nigerians are busy focusing on Tinubu on insecurity. Yesterday, Senator Adams Oshiomole raised a motion in the senate demanding a probe into how the billions being allocated to security are being spent. He also demanded a probe to find out who commanded the security forces to be withdrawn moments prior to the Kebbi school kidnapping.
Guess what?
The Senators rejected the motion.
The evil senators we ignore and focus on Tinubu.
HOLD YOUR LAW MAKERS ACCOUNTABLE TOO!!!
Another set of students abducted in Zamfara meanwhile we have not even rescued Oyo & Borno students. This is Tinubuโs Nigeria that Daniel Bwala went on Al Jazeera to say that there is insecurity even in UK & US. If Nigeria was like US or UK, Tinubu would have long been retired back to Lagos because no way American or British students would be abducted & moved into forests like chicken while their government does nothing but play politics.
About 80 minutes into yesterdayโs final, several Muslims at the lounge I watched it, Arsenal fans and neutrals alike, got up and went to the mosque to pray.
Knowing they could miss the end of the match, they still went.
That level of discipline is remarkable.๐
