Nigerian Armed forces are overwhelmed and overstretched. Our Army can't continue doing Police work whilst the police continue to be glorified thugs and water carriers for politicians. Policing is the key to every serious nation's internal security. Our redemption lies with our police force, and not the Army.

They truly understood education to be the great equalizer an...
