@Dr_Afo The latter actually. I still don't understand how and why Nigeria adopted such absurd pay system across all specialties. A neurosurgeon's burnout rate will obviously dwarf a pathologist's.
Time to rescue victims of banditry/kidnapping/terrorism in Nigeria:
Rich man pikin: 3 days (plus gunshot injuries to suspects and continuous tracing of other gang members)
Poor man pikin: 3 weeks and still counting (plus televised beheading/raping/threats, plenty excuses from security agencies, negotiation with terrorists, protests, X posts, video threats, begging, political manipulation, lack of empathy and rice-sharing by leaders ati bebe lo)

Boko Haram slaughtered men of @DHQNigeria@HQNigerianArmy today like chickens. They beheaded Nigerian soldiers.
Tomorrow, one f00lish army general will say they are prodigal sons and the criminal Ribadu will call them his brothers while old 1diots like @aonanuga1956 will say nothing about the terrorists just to shield the monumental FAILURE Tinubu @officialABAT from the blame. Finally, the government will call them repentant and rehabilitate them.
A government that truly wants to end terrorism will NEVER rehabilitate terrorists.

Bandits ambushed a soldier barracks and ki-lled about eight soldiers, not only did they K!ll them, they also beh3aded every single one.
NIGERIA IS RIPE FOR REVOLUTION!
This girl committed a crime we are all guilty of.
She was born in Nigeria where leaders do not care about the life of children.
Where the leaders of tomorrow never live long enough to see tomorrow!
Sad !
She was amongst the 45 v!ctims k!dnapped from a school in Oyo State. Her mother was crying to the government to help and secure their release because of her s!ck daughter who was lying hopeless in a thick forest .
During a live broadcast on tiktok by the b@ndits , the mother was shown displaying her daughter's c0rpse crying that she has l0st her to s!ckness .
The mother out of fear and p@nic was exonerating the b@ndits on the live video that they were innocent of her daughter's dem!Se .
Would this tr@uma ever leave this woman if she ever regains her freedom?
Nigeria government has failed Nigerians repeatedly.
May the gentle soul of this innocent child rest in peace.

This review is long overdue given the worsening insecurity across the length and breadth of Nigeria.
It is now evident that the government through the Instrumentality of it's security and intelligence apparatuses can no longer or are unwilling to guarantee the safety of lives and property of Nigerians.
However, we must be very careful in the implementation of policies that promote self-defense and gun ownership.
We are a country with highly polarized and extreme views on ethnicity, religion and political leanings. Passing a law that promotes gun ownership will potentially increase the problem of gun violence as seen in the US.
Secondly, it seems to me that lawmakers want to make the laws for their personal protection by making gun ownership inaccessible and expensive for the common man. This must be resisted. If Nigerians must own guns, the common man must also be able to own one to protect themselves.
There's also the question of the mental status of people who may be interested in weilding arms. People may end up getting arms for reasons beyond self-defense.
While the discussion concerning owning guns is welcome, we need to critically examine it's applicability in our setting and properly mitigate against the terrible outcomes associated with gun proliferation.
Amidst the festering insecurity, Senators push for the review of the Nigerian Firearm Law, advocating that carrying firearms should be legalized.
The senators argued that Nigerians have the right to self-defence in the face of fatal danger.✍️
Just In:
Man Lawal Jabir Sahabi, who criticized the Kebbi State government yesterday afternoon over insecurity, was kidnapped in the evening, along with his wife and children in their home.
Was about to make a transfer of some money to an account in a popular medical telegram channel for doctors.
@OPay_NG immediately flagged it as a scam and discontinued the transaction. Opay thank you oo.
