Restructuring, the key to survival

Published by

The Nigerian situation is hazardous but not hopeless. Nigeria possesses substantial wealth and capable hands but the key to our survival is restructuring. It can’t go on this way. Things must change. The country is dying by inches in such a way one might be led to think there is no solution.

But, I ask our government, is it not an international disgrace to allow a few kidnappers and bandits to roam wild in our forests until they strike and surprisingly haul in their catch in hundreds of millions? Worse is the way these misfits haul off the naira without being pursued after freeing captives.

Are we not allowing these ruffians set up their little kingdoms everywhere? I am truly enraged at the audacity of their atrocities in the light of the paraphernalia of modern weapons and technological devices at the disposal of our security forces.

This is so infuriating and I believe it is not only incompetence but also crass stupidity to allow the politicians make our security forces paint a picture of helplessness against AK 47 carrying kidnappers. Each time I run into the warriors that fought the unfortunate civil war, I remember that we have disciplined people whose past experiences may help to solve the present insecurity challenge.

It is time to bring on board every individual that has the training and experience to solve this problem; we need to draft them in. It has happened before.

John R. Jimoh,

Ijebu-Ode.
