Niger state shares borders with Zamfara, kebbi, Kaduna & Benin Republic. Terrorists from Niger republic and Burkina faso easily move money and arms across the borders of Kebbi, Zamfara and Benin R into Niger state. According to UN over 900,000 people have been displaced in B'Faso https://t.co/65YEMJhqDp

Niger, Mali and Burkina faso are weak countries populated by Shell terrorists who have now found a safe haven in the forests in Kaduna and Niger state. Birin Gwari, Mokwa forest, Nanati forests, Kanji lake areas.

No decent human resides permanently in forests.
We are facing both external and internal threats from these weak and failed countries we are surrounded with. As a senator you know that a FG police system with less than 300k officers can't actively police the landmass and borders in the North.
Form your state police now!
You and other senators should scrap the FG police system and devote the unaudited security votes and constituency allowance to policing your corridors and forests. Let the airforce bomb them and put your rangers in the forests. Issue an ultimatum for those in the forests to leave
You are all living in a dream if you think the current police structure will become efficient overnight.
Budget, Personnel, Technology, Equipment, Surveillance..It's impossible.
Form your state and community police and flush out the terrorists.
How many police personnel are in Niger state? As a senator do you have the figures? How many communities in Niger state have police presence?
Don't you want to wait until 1m people are displaced in your state?
If you cannot fund state police, how is the Sharia police system funded in some states in the North. Which issue comes first? Life or religion?
You have the Kanji Lake, Niger River, Kanji forests that can be developed into world class tourist centres, you have land for Agric
You have abundant mineral resources in Niger state. Here is a Stanford research on investment opportunities in Niger state. You are sitting on a gold mine, Uranium etc. Why must you wait for the FG to pay police officers to guard your forests and patrol communities?
Niger state is bigger than Israel and Netherlands, have you studied how both countries make billions of dollars from Agric? You have the rivers and the dams for irrigation. Niger state should feed Nigeria and West Africa but you are waiting for FG allocation.
You are not helpless..you simply don't want to work and safeguard your people.
Bring in investors to transform those forests and parks, invest in Agric, find a way to develop your solid minerals, fund a local police system before your people get wiped out.
Niger republic, Burkina faso, Mali and Benin Republic will continue to pose threats. If the FG cannot patrol the borders, secure your border with local rangers.
The constitution was made for man not man for the constitution. You can't claim to be helpless..

If by this you mean the Vast majority of Nigerians that are in the lower class should demand for good governance, then I hope you know this can never be effective.

Why?

Demand for good governance. What do they know that they want to demand? The few among them that are "enlightened" will have their voices drown out by the many that are not. I hope you know that there will always be the ignorant, evil men (hired assassin, political thugs) and also

Good men, the proportion of good men to the ignorants and evil men in this social class is low. Therefore l, gathering to something meaningful will be low.

Great article from @AsheSchow. I lived thru the 'Satanic Panic' of the 1980's/early 1990's asking myself "Has eveyrbody lost their GODDAMN MINDS?!"


The 3 big things that made the 1980's/early 1990's surreal for me.

1) Satanic Panic - satanism in the day cares ahhhh!

2) "Repressed memory" syndrome

3) Facilitated Communication [FC]

All 3 led to massive abuse.

"Therapists" -and I use the term to describe these quacks loosely - would hypnotize people & convince they they were 'reliving' past memories of Mom & Dad killing babies in Satanic rituals in the basement while they were growing up.

Other 'therapists' would badger kids until they invented stories about watching alligators eat babies dropped into a lake from a hot air balloon. Kids would deny anything happened for hours until the therapist 'broke through' and 'found' the 'truth'.

FC was a movement that started with the claim severely handicapped individuals were able to 'type' legible sentences & communicate if a 'helper' guided their hands over a keyboard.
