Insecurities And Ineffective Law In Nigeria -By Abdulrasaq Isiaq Mustopha

Nigeria has became an unsaved country, and our presidential candidate promise us save nation before they were elected into office, but look at what we are in. They said they will provide us with good security, where life and property is safe but all are lies.

One can’t even travel without worries of being kidnap or rub, though it is a common believed that it is only God that can gift one a save and merciful journey but, our Government also have a great role to play in providing us with excellent security across the nation.

Who are the Bandits and Boko Haram and other culprits of bad morals if there is capable security and effective law.

Though we have law but the so called law is not effective, especially at the side of the wealthiest and those in power, they can manipulate law and the security with their money and power inorder to let them off the hook of law.

Law that is ineffective is the one that gave power to a criminal to commit another crime without being punished, like a man who killed another person without any genius reasons or for law and still move on as if nothing happen despite of been arrested and confirm as the culprit.

Those that committed great crime became unconstraine by tying their crime into another person crime and setting up innocent people to be punished instead of the main culprit.

Absolutely, stealing is a crime and unwanted act in the society and the country at large but it had became a common and proud occupation among the Nigeria youth and some other non- Nigerian due to lack of security and ineffective law which gave them the right to do so and they keep giving excuse of there illegal act because they are unemployed and also have powerful person at their disposal, who always support them either they are wrong or right despite knowing the fact.

Kidnaping, killing of innocent soul without any reason and fraud had become a series of task and turned to decent behavior among some youth, because they had been oppressed by friends and families (Where parents are telling their child that their mate just bought a new car and also built a house for his parents, without knowing what that mate get involved in before he do something for his parents), and because of insecurities and who will hold me for justice if I was caught, have make them to commit any kind of crime and they are right, who will punished them for their crime, when those that were employed to enforce the law and punished the criminal are also the perpetrator.

To say the fact, this is not Nigeria we read in history especially during the tenure of military rule. Nigeria we know before doesn’t gave chance to criminal to explain him self when he was found guilty, but today Nigeria is now the country where criminal live with comfort and still continue with their illegal act without any worries of being arrested and punish once the criminal have money at his disposal.

The security agency were established for the protection of life and properties but they are now acting as the opposite because of money and some other vices, it is so disheartening when the information of kidnapers or armed rubbers are bring into notice, the tention of being kidnap or being rub by those organization is creating fear in the mind and souls of the masses of this great nation, even if one have an opportunity to get a job which is high paying in another state or to visit a family or friends one will still be fearing of the insecurities in the nation and what will happen to him if he take the risk to migrate.

Sincerely, Nigeria is not save for the living, the disgusting News reaching one every day and most of the times is some thing fearing, the kidnappers, armed Rubbery, Fraud, and especially using another person for money ritual is something that need to be halted in this great nation, for the living to be called the living and dead to sleep at ease.
