  1. Things are happening mostly in the north, they have not declare state of emergency to Boko Haram and bandit that is disrupting the peace of the country, and the government have have not put them in terrorist list, but when things happen in south or East government will pick up, my question is why?

  2. Can state of Emergency solve the problems? Why for Anambra State that is due for Election in few weeks time.why can’t the DSS deeply investigate what is happening because this has lasted for awhile.If Federal Govt is not complicit in all these insecurity,a more discerning measure Must be adopted to stop this growing insecurity especially in South East that was so peaceful before.
