How can sane people choose to die for a country like Nigeria? Doing a uniformed job in Nigeria means g one's own death warrant. They should thank their stars that they didn't die.

Hummmm.
I think some of these agencies need to change and restructure their mode of operation so they don't continue to endanger their precious lives.
I'm not a professional, but sometimes these agencies act and operate like boys scout or even Boys Brigade. They need to be more technical

Nothing actually works except Drugs and Kworuption.

If there is no buyer, seller won't buy.

The drug market is raking massive income because there is a lot of junkies and Zombies amongst us.
