THE DEPLOYMENT OF SECURITY OPERATIVES TO KATSINA: A LATE ATTEMPT TO RESCUE INSECURITY
The deployment of security operatives to katsina three days after the kidnapping incidence seems like a late attempt to rescues insecurity in the state.
The deployment of foot officers to katsina three days after 330 pupils was carted away from a GSSS school located in kankari, katsina state. But the troop claimed to be an intelligent squad deployed to gather informations and provide logistics in rescuing the kidnapped pupils and the pictures of the escapdes filtered the internet even before the assignment is underway.
Moreso, the said military personnel look more like models on photoshoot, they look like they are just doing all these for the cameras. No serious Police Investigating Team will release their moves to terrorists via social media, coupled with several photoshoots & their own location. It makes no sense, it feels like the whole country have been deceived.
In civilised nations troop movement would be camouflaged. The deployment of Abba Kyari and his tactical team to Kankara ought to have remained classified information and not a publicity stunt. The publicity intonations inclined that he is simply going to hand over ransom to the bandits. With this move, DCP Abba Kyari would come out victorious. It look like a government drama playing out.
Abba Kyari has always been a super cop in the Nigerian police units. Him been deployed to Kastina State to track down the bandits who kidnapped hundreds of schoolboys in the State gives a hopeful connotations to getting to the root of the matter and a feels of succeess. The same way he succeeded in rooting out kidnappers in Lagos. Hopefully, he will succeed but the way and manner the operations is been launched isn't professional enough.
But in this instance, it's imperative to see things the way they are; He's a policeman, and raising funds to commence the operations requires funding which he doesn't have any power over, his superior officers responsible for making funds available are to be questioned on the delay of the deployment. What we should do now is to accept and encourage the work of a hardworking police officer in Abba Kyari and wish him success in this assignment.
