Insecurity in Nigeria is a business venture for top officials who have brilliantly covered up their tracks irrespective of the carnage it has cost over the years.
Due to Nigeria's extremely corrupt political structure, certain officials who were unfortunate enough to have their photo taken dining with a Boko Haram leader have risen to the second-highest position in the government and have stifled any idea of conducting any investigation.
Ahead of him, a different official declared with audacity that "an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the northern part of Nigeria" and demanded the liberation of the group. Regretfully, since 2012, this region has lost about $250 billion in investments and lands, and over 200,000 people have died.
Horrifically, that same individual rose to become the president of Nigeria and left a devastating legacy in his 8-year tenure. NTS reported that over 63111 died in his 8-year-time, the report is clearly stated in Vanguard Newspaper 6th June 2024.
Genocide should have been the headline news of all the nation's newspaper in Nigeria and an instant trail afterwards should have followed. But happened next will astound you.
Not only is a free man, but he also compromised Nigeria's legal system's integrity to install an unqualified successor who have plunged Nigerians into despair and poverty.
To end Terrorism in Northeast part of NIgeria, the current governor of Kastina state Dikko Radda had this to say while addressing the press: "It (Boko Haram) is a business venture for criminals and a business venture for some people who are in government and some people who are in the security outfits and some people who are responsible for the day-to-day activities of the people.
"There are some of the reasons why we are unable to bring end to the issue of banditry. When you understand the terrain of the forest, and the different camps that we have within those forests. like Kastina, we have more than 100 different camps that are being led by somebody.
"So, they have many leaders, many camps and if you're negotiating with Camps A and B and don't negotiate with Camps C and D, it will not bring any lasting peace. Even if you negotiate with the leaders, the other leaders may not necessarily comply with the directives of the leader. So that is what makes the negotiation very difficult. That is why i said i would never go into negotiations with any criminal at the point of weakness".
Governor Dikko not only blamed top officials but the security architecture in Nigeria. Probably the reason why the 'so-called- repented Boko Haram' are instated into the Nigeria military and other security network across Nigeria.
Nigerians have often called on the government to stop enlisting bandits and Boko Haram into the armed forces, but the government has always defended itself by carrying out its duties as best. Breach.
Because combating Boko Haram and other threats throughout the federation is a large-scale business endeavor that many influential officials profit from, it may never come to an end. Finally, because of Nigeria's chaotic situation, the top five European nations—including the United States—have a sizable market for their gun shipments to the unstable area.
As the world observes, the top five European countries, including the United States, provide help to support the government; but, behind closed doors, guns are transported to Nigeria and shrewdly dispersed to Boko Haram and banditry strongholds via non-governmental organizations like Doctors without Borders. Red Cross, UNICEF and others.
Boko Haram, Banditry and Kidnapping are all business ventures created for a specific set for people and this people all have faces.
