The Police Trust Fund has no Boss as far as the public is concerned. This contraption of a board is neither trusted by the public nor by the police community themselves. The President should reconstitute this immediately. They are mostly politicians & part of the problem!
This goes to show you how disconnected from reality these people are. It wouldn’t kill the Presidency to engage the CSOs that facilitated the Police Trust Fund Bill and Police Reform Bill for clarity. What is Barracking in a Democracy? Why waste funds ignorantly?!
It is fraudulent to lay claim to the adoption of community Policing principles and quickly obtain N13.3 Billion for same at the one end, only to turn around and spend Police Trust Fund money on Barracks! This is the ugliest of all paradoxes subsumed in a pool of deceit.
The idea behind Community policing, Intelligence led policing and Police Reform which necessitated the police reform bill is the Democratization of the @PoliceNG. How exactly do you create barracks for people who we intend to win the trust of the people and serve same?!
The @NGRSenate & @HouseNGR should shut this madness down before they ruin all that was painstakingly worked on in the past five years mostly in favor of the Police and the public being murdered daily by rogue units who are victims of the criminal negligence of Govt. #EndImpunity
The entire concept and approach is being executed wrongly. It shows clearly that our rulers are resisting this imminent cultural and system change/shift. The focus on self aggrandizement seems to have derailed the train of reform on the part of the Presidency. #EndCronyism
This is a Trust Fund with a 5 year lifespan. 2years have been flushed down the toilet already and the lack of focus and understanding of the board proliferated by political misfits is about to squander the available funds despite our current hardship. Who cursed Nigeria?!
The current trajectory will put the entire Police Trust Fund in the pockets of APC politicians against 2023. Majority of the members of the board are aspirants with eyes on political ambition against 2023. This is why we don’t progress as a Nation. #EndImpunity
