Ebube Agụ, like Amotekun, won't fix the broken security architecture in Alaigbo.
For the umpteenth time, I advise Governors under the aegis of @NGFSecretariat to sue for the urgent Decentralisation of @PoliceNG into 37 Independent State Police & 774 Local Police Departments.
2/ Similarly, militia groups such as the Eastern Security Network (ESN) formed by @MaziNnamdiKanu can't fix the broken security architecture in Alaigbo. Such window gives rise to the formations of more militia groups by politicians & non-State actors.
Alaigbo will surely boil.
3/ Pending Decentralisation of @PoliceNG, Ag. @PoliceNG IG, Alkali Baba Usman must rid all roadways in Alaigbo of Police Roadblocks/Checkpoints which block the free flow of human/vehicular traffic; promote corruption, extortion, arbitrary arrests & police brutalities.
4/ Lagos-Owerri got over 100 @PoliceNG, @HQNigerianArmy, @CustomsNG, @FRSCNigeria Roadblocks.
A 2020 report by Int’l Society for Civil Liberties & Rule of Law, says rogue personnels, at gunpoints, extorted N306b at roadblocks between (August 2015-October 2019) across SE & SS.
5/ As at April 2020, there were 73,726 inmates held across Nigeria's prisons. 51,983 (70%), are held without trial. Only 22, 773 've been convicted.
Urgent change is needed, as these #UGM hitting prisons, roadblocks of extortions in Alaigbo might be obeying Malcolm X's quote👇
6/ On October 11, 2020, in a thread, I advised the @PoliceNG authorities to dismantle all illegal roadblocks/checkpoints of extortion across Nigeria's roadways, highlighting how the Police in saner climes make traffic stops.
Read and enjoy👇
7/ By Global Best Practices, effective policing is achieved via Community Policing, Intelligence Gathering, Motorised Surveillance, Tech, etc. Roadblocks/Checkpoints mounted by men & officers of @PoliceNG, etc, are needless. They fester #Extortion, #Corruption & #PoliceBrutality.
8/ END- The Fulani Herdsmen menace snowballing into another civil war, gave rise to Amotekun, Ebube Agu, ESN, etc.
If Nigerians feel this Federation is still beneficial, simply:
1. Ban Open Grazing
2. Decentralise @PoliceNG into 37 State Police & 774 Local Police Depts. #Shalom
