  3. Na only Northerners be police for Nigeria? Because apart from Tafa and Ehindero, the rest have being from the North if I am not mistaken! And why this incessant need to keep changing them like tissue, reeks of instability in the police force. Jonathan has run through three now if I am not mistaken!

    1. U don forget Okiro? Jona will keep changing them as election time approaches. The Police is one of the most potent rigging tools in PDP's armory so he must make sure the head is loyal.

    2. Bros why must we be tribalistic in everything we do? If he had appointed a southerner some ppl wil still ask why must it b a southerner and same wld ve happened if it was someone frm the west. Abeg we no dey tire with this kind sentimentality ? I for one don't give a hoot abt who gets what as long as him go work for the betterment of NIGERIA!

    3. Finally,a new IG yet again. But like you said, na only northerners? That's what's up with leadership in Nigeria. All leaders always come from the north as if that's where Nigeria ends. But then,that's the truth. That is where Nigeria ends. The rest of us are always treated as followers following their instructions. Nonsense. All these will definitely end soon.

  21. #the problem of insecurity in the country has gone beyond physical gun battle so therefore any person who think that soldiers will win the battle is a liar.
    what the president and his team should focus on is the information base gathering which will involves more decade personnel who know how to use the modern security technology gadgets.
    The new IG of police cannot solved problem on the ground, therefore, a new approach is needed to tackled the problem head on through information gathering.
