We have a large border we can't secure, extremely porous. We are surrounded by weak and poor countries. A man can walk from Mali, Niger or Chad into Nigeria with a rifle and start "catching" Nigerians like rabbit for ransome.
We have a central police system that has collapsed..

Police personnel insufficient and the command structure dead. We have large ungoverned areas in rural communities with no police presence. In these rural areas, we have poor infrastructure in that delay urgent response to crime. We have lots of internal criminals as well..

Insanity ia simply defined as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
Some states have civil servants that take up 90% of their FAAC and IGR. Cut them to 50% and use the savings to fund a proper state police structure...

Review the revenue sharing agreement or allow states to manage their resources so that they can secure their communities. Your excuse is that governors will abuse state police but the governor has 4 years, bandits and criminals will stay with you forever.

You are afraid of governors and politicians so you will rather be at the mercy of criminals and bandits. This excuse is lame and devoid of any common sense.
Let me say it here again that our security situation will get worse. How many soldiers can the country deploy?

How many soldiers are we going to lose to basic policing functions? How many lives will we lose to kidnapping and banditry?
This is total failure of governance, from the state assemblies to the NASS and the presidency. The Nigerian government at all levels have failed.

The president has failed woefully !!! Our lawmakers have failed to design a modern country based on proper law enforcement and security.
What a shame..
