The news that Nigeria is troubled is obvious to every discerning mind. The country’s security is pulling apart at the seams, and with an incapable state humouring itself that it is still in charge. Every medicine that is applied to the sick man of Africa that the country has become is undermined by recidivist feudal elite controlling the state apparatus. There has always been a residue of hope by well-meaning Nigerians that this house built on quick sand can be restructured, in other words rebuilt on a solid foundation that is federalism. Recently, free riding bandits created and nurtured into a monster by an irresponsible state actor fixated to implementing domination, struck and took our children from their boarding facility in a government secondary school in Kiagara, Niger State of the country. On account of this, there is the sudden awareness to go back to the prescription of state police, a sub-national force fit for countries organised as a federation. In our context, the idea has been hobbled by the ruling feudal elite, foisting on us their so-called community policing controlled by the Abuja central authorities.
