I was in the midst of fellow Inmates, sorry not inmates but fellow Cell mates, we were sharing breakfast of bread and water, that was when I heard the Jingles floating from the prism of the well Read, it said that Federal Government placed BAN on Fire Arms, an excerpt lifted from Facebook which I will attach as screen shot picture, it says and I provide
"BUHARI BAN GUN LICENSE IN NIGERIA,
Under the new law nobody or group of persons shall henceforth be allow to sell,purchase or own a gun or any ammunition in Nigeria except Military and the police.
From June 1st 219,civil defence,custom,immigration and other paramilitary personal shall size to carry firearms.
Under the same law,all licenses that where issued to individuals or groups are now revoked and such persons are to handover their licenses to the police headquarters.
~the nation"....end of quote
Well, this will serve a great deal if and only if the Guns are mopped out in Totality from hands of everybody including those using it as Hunters and protection on the wilderness, it will become night mare if the ones in the hands of individuals, especially those without license in the first instance and also those who does not have need to handle Gun as it is life ending piece of Iron in some Hands.
Taking Guns out of the hands of Immigration is long over due, after all what do they even need Gun to do?
To shoot immigrants or can they use Gun to shoot Visa into any Passport?.
We all know and agree that illegal immigrants are not harmful at all and if there is scare from them, the simple reaction is to call THE POLICE or the DSS.
No need whatsoever to be brandishing Guns.
While taking away the Guns, the history of the Guns shall be inventorized to make sure it wasn't used in any clandestine format .
Customs and exercise are another group I never understand what they needed Guns for, since they have never known to shoot any Robber talkless of Armed Robber, they have not shot even a Lizard, but the last we read about them, they were busy shooting innocent Hustlers at Shagamu who came back from Europe with some gift for the family.
In other Nations outside Nigeria, Customs are limited at the Borders and restricted to attending to dutiable goods which I see no reason they will use Guns to collect duties.
The Government should fortify the Borders and remove all the Customs check point inside town for that is making them to get bolder and out of hands. If it means that some Goods are not properly dutied, then it simply means the Officers at the entry points are corrupt and. Should be changed and not to multiplied the same job and create multiple corruption, which will and always affect the price of good at the hands of end users making the cosmetic BASIC SALARY a Fluke.
Atimes I look at the 30,000 Salaries to Civil servants without the Government given them respite or Cushioning the over hiked school fees, Transport fares and astronomical house rents, which we expect them to overcome with 30K,it makes me wanting to Drink my own Urine.
What we pay Civil servants with Family is a crime against God.
That amount cannot last 2 weeks at the hand of a Miser, so imagine what it will do to any family that have kids in school... Moving on..
Leaving Guns at the hands of Civil defense makes me to ask, what exactly is the work of Civil defense in Nigeria ?
I want somebody to explain to me what are the actual duties of Civil defense that will also make us to put Guns in their hands and they are not accountable to any force or have supervision Tent placed above them for check and balances...
If the Guns are kept within the hands of the Police, Army, DSS then we can be sure that sane ones are more than the insane ones.
Local Vigilantes are equally good to have guns as they are under the Supervision of the Police and they work perfectly where the Police and DSS cannot, as they knew the terrain and in Most cases they knew the crime vendors and can stop them cold without blood lettings, moving on...
The Government should look closely to our Police stations, make it a working place, not a hurting place..
My Days at POLICE CID AWKA, while I was battling mosquitoes with anger, then it occurred to me that obinigwe has a reason he sent me there, to see the needs and wants and, may be with my Virgin Tongue advocate for certain upgrade..
The Police station, taking this one at OKA as reference point needs BORE HOLE which won't cost over a Million Naira, they need an electrician to wire the place and not carpenters that wired the place, the wiring alone, the protruding of naked wires, the wrong out dated switches can ignite Fire if not nipped in the bud and that will flush so many documents and hard Labour down the bad path.
With the epileptic power supply, they need a running and powered Generator that will make the officers to stop using their phone Torches as illuminator at dawn and during the day when the place is not bright enough, as that affects the sight now and later as they get older.
Then it won't be too much to say that, police stations should join the DIGITAL WORLD, they should have Computers, Scanners, printers, that way they can join the Global Police, because as it is, if we send our Police to foreign mission, they will look like Vigilante in the affairs of other Police.
Finally, I want to Share a heart tearing True story of one of my CM (Cell Mate), I was able to interview some of my mates, but one makes me to shiver.. One Boy who is a Pastor and from little time I spent around him, I will say he is living a just life.. He has Fire Burn in his hand, but his story was..
He was dating a Girl whose parents approved of the relationship and he was grooming her for marriage, and all those while refused to take the Girl to Bed, then one day he came to the girl's hostel and meet another Guy sleeping with the Girl and he was so pissed and angry, he turned round and started making calls to the Family of the girl telling them that it is over, then the girl came out begging him with laden heart.. He told the girl that she should stay calm, that he also needs to go home and clear his head, but sensing the tense movement of the girl, he ask the Girl to prepare and go with him, but she said he has Text the next morning in her School,, so the Girl begged him to Bed her, to show her He is not gonna leave her, he told her that he gave the girls mother his words that until marriage that they won't do.. While he wait, the Girl took Sachet water and enter Toilet to clean up, but then he started hearing strange moaning sound from her and he rushed into the toilet to see that she was foaming from mouth, she drank SNIPER.. with helps of the neighbor they tried everything they can to save her including forcing Red Oil down Her Throat to neutralize the effect of the latest killing or say Suicide induced Tool.
SNIPER have killed enough of our Youths in an ogre of demonic exercise, where some Kids who are yet to taste the full dose of Depression, decides to burn the heart of the parents who managed to bring them to life, put them through school bearing the pains of training them with siblings, yet the INDOMIE GENERATION think they are facing Depression, so they decides to end the life they did not create and put the Family in PERPETUAL grief.
Moving on, the girl died after all the effort and hospitalization..
The quandary... How did the Girl prepare self in advance with the Killer SNIPER?
The head spinning side is that the kindred of the Girl insist that he must marry the dead Girl Corpse, making me to feel real bad for he is in Cell for what he said he did not do, he will marry a Corpse he did not kill and he won't even be there to witness the marriage or the burial of the would be wife.
I pray that both the Police and the Family of the Girl should have pity and know that atimes what come to us is never what we bargained for and nobody knows tomorrow, for it may be member of our family tomorrow..
My friends Good Morning and Have a pleasant day, as I am planning for Medical Check up as I Missed my Drugs and it is sending a very bad signal to rest of the body, which I must attend to.
Mazi Odera POg JP (CM) not feeling like the regular POg.
