Forgotten protectors: The need for police pension reform

Column, Metro, News, OpinionAbiodun KOMOLAFE, Nigeria, Opinion, Police

News

Do not mind the mortally mischievous demagoguery of Repentant Bandits/Terrorists being absorbed into the Military. It is the hubris that manures and fertilizes the endless War Against Terror. They inadvertently train the terrorists, and boom they are back in the woods better trained to terrorise us some more. The cycle continues. Do Terrorists Ever Truly Repent? There is an internal sabotage mechanism that undermines the War Against Terror. Be not deceived this mechanism is meant to sustain the huge business that the war against Terror has become to those in government, and to those who superintend our security architecture. We…
