INSECURITY IN THE NORTHWEST: A THOUGHT!

Image
By Ibraheem A. Waziri 14-12-2021,  Whatever is the source of the current insecurity is; it remains the responsibility of the government to be able to negotiate us through it with minimal casualties! We have submitted in the past, so many ideas that we feel the government could make good use of. Ranging from horizontal restructuring and reorganisation of power and command flow in the country; to massive reform in the security hierarchy and mode of operation. Abnormal situations often require an extreme response to tackle and control. We changed the whole constitution in 1966-7 to save Nigeria from disintegrating! However, over the years, academics in the ivory towers up North and clerics all seem to argue that the problem has always been part of a great scheme of the world powers, to control the vast resources hereunder the feet of the African Sahel. And it is why the problem refused to go! They often suggest that the government might not be entirely blamed, because ...

HUNGER AND POVERTY A MILLENNIAL FIGHT FOR THE STRONGEST LEADERS

a report by the United Nations World Food Program has suggested that about 44 countries across the World are in dire need of food, the shortest Supply of food has plunged these countries into hunger, preceded by excessive poverty caused by the recession.  Countries in crisis requiring external assistance for food  are expected to lack the resources to deal with reported critical problems of food insecurity.  I extracted some reasons why Nigeria was included in the list despite its riches and being the Number one economy in Africa.  According to the latest CH analysis, about 12.9 million people are estimated to require humanitarian food assistance between October and December 2021 because of the worsening conflict that is driving new population displacements, particularly in Northern states, high food prices and reduced household purchasing power. Over 3 million people are estimated to be internally displaced in Northern states due to civil insecurity and ...

THE POLITICISATION OF TERROR

Image
Tahir Ibrahim Tahir  (Talban Bauchi)  It is no longer news that on the 7th of December, 2021; 42 innocent travellers were gruesomely burnt in a bus, as they moved through Gidan Bawa village of Sabon Birni local government of Sokoto state. 35 died instantly and 7 survived with very severe burns and were being treated in the hospital. May Allah shower their souls with his mercy. This is one of the most horrendous and inhumane acts of the bandits that have since visited Northwestern Nigeria with an orgy of violence. I believe this barbaric act, accounts more for Sheikh Gumi excusing himself from speaking on behalf of the bandits, than the reason he gave -- citing their proclamation by law as terrorists. This heartless, baseless and demonic act of burning a fellow human being alive has laid bare, the true nature of what Nigeria is fighting for so many years. Fighter jets bombarded many enclaves of the bandits, east of Dumburoum forest in Zurmi, Zamfara, and also in Sok...
