Road Banditry:Our Puff Adder can’t find its venom vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Bandits are loose on the road. We must do more than christening adhoc police groups to fight them. It is getting frightening.
The security situation along the Abuja-Kaduna road is nearing hopelessness. Senators and generals all now prudently hide in trains to commute between Kaduna and Abuja. That is why the Abuja-Kaduna train tickets are hoarded by greedy transport ministry officials and sold in the black market for over three times their prices. Who can blame them?
The police are almost ineffective against the cults in Rivers. It is gradually exceeding their job description. Oil companies that have presence in some of those communities no longer request for police escorts. That’s the reality. A certain Inspector General’s special squad from Abuja comes around and flexes muscles. But that’s it. Everybody relies on the military. But the military has its hands and head full, containing Boko Haram.
