To solve this problem. Boarders should be secured 24/7 surveillance around the boarders. First thing first. Shipment coming into Nigeria should be searched or scanned. Mighty Scans should be in place. Let them put surveillance camera everywhere in the country to track people. Even the worst place. They should stop using old models. Trace any transfer of funds more than 2,000,000 Naira. . Also, let everyone in the country register their home. ( Lagos about to start). Also the issue of identity and Immigration laws should be in place. Employ the best brains in the IT industry to capture,save and process data. Let access to data be available to TOP officials and the police. Reform the way we police the people.

   Maritime reform will create loads of job Both permanent and indirect jobs.  Education too. Education Reform!!! Education reform is not by building more universities or federal uni. The Government is just tooo stupid and useless.. They are not using their brain at all. Why will you let america be helping you fight Boko Haram. OMG! If you trace it very well you will know. Nigerian are smarter than this..

This government is just use-less.

Please open your senses..

Comment Of The Day: NIGERIA FACES SECOND COLONIZATION - MUST READ

Click banner for more info

Fellow Nigerians, the recent FG's effort at classifying Boko Haram as a terror organisation, to my knowledge is both cosmetic and a way to subvert to sovereignty of this Country. Our Sovereignty will be subverted because, in FG's desperation to give Boko Haram international colouration, we are inviting both US and Israeli intervention into Nigeria. This is second colonialism. We will become another Afghanistan, Pakistan and another Iraq, where the US will rule us via proxy.

Drone strikes will be common place and civilian casualties will be treated same way as its done in Afghanistan.
Boko Haram is a domestic issue, as a result of mis-governance, government corruption  poverty, illiteracy, desertification, lack of border control and government's cluelessness. 

Insecurity is everywhere in the 36 states of the country but they appear in different forms. We should go to root-cause analysis and not a knee-jerk approach.

Gone are the good days when people treat Corpers with courtesy and sometimes feed them free of charge. These days, it is common to see young guys serving Nigeria under the NYSC scheme struggling to "survive" at their place of assignment. We observed that help is no long as it used to be.

The crux of the matter is that today people don't trust easily. Wearing an NYSC gear is no longer enough to be trusted. And a male Corper worsened this fear recently when he was caught...

The 26yrs old Corper, identified as Amadi Stanley, was said to have taken a 15-year-old girl, whose parent were friendly with him, saying they were going on a stroll. The girl, a secondary school student, wanted to return home after they've covered some distance, but the Corper refused and they started "dragging".

Before the teenage girl could know what was happening Corper Amadi was on top of her and he was said to have forcefully had carnal knowledge of the girl. She was later rescued from him and he was arrested by men of the Nigeria Police Force in Ede, Osun State, where he is posted to.
