We’re simple not kind to ourselves. We behave worse than animals in the way we treat each other as co-citizens of this country. The police are so violent and unkind in their bid to extort citizens.

Community policing, where the police live in the same neighborhood as the people they serve and protect, go to the same church or mosques, meet at the market place and schools, etc., is a clearly more humane system of policing. The challenge is – how do we bring this type of policing about since it has been written about several times already?

No policeman or officer deserve promotion after making Nigerians so uncomfortable.
