Unusually, for the Met, it did give more than a hint that public order events of last weekend would present a challenge to police planners and officers out there on the ground. Doubtless, the headline writers and those former police officers who have appeared so frequently on our screens lambasting police were poised for further media appearances.

Ego Naka…in modern Nigeria, it not character, honesty, integrity, standards and merit, but it’s a matter of cash. And the more, the bigger your space and place in the Nigerian society of today. And in all that life can offer the Nigerian, the successful are those with the most cash, and in 99.09% of the cases, stolen. Therefore, ill-gotten, yet from amongst these conscienceless and mindless crooks emanate the nation’s rulers!
Whilst in the Age of untruth, the fools say money is the measure of value, the wise think otherwise, because money is neither the measure of value nor of truth nor a legal tender in the truth economy.
Since the unsurprising, but very embarrassing and shameful outcome of the 2023 Presidential Election in Nigeria, which no doubt has orphaned a great nation; and predominating in my oracular glass is the uneasy calm that has descended upon our nation with violence and war flapping their wings in and around Nigeria as a fowl shot by an evil hunter, who returned from an unsuccessful hunting expedition at the Okipu rainforest, but turned its anger at a fowl that crossed his path in the heat of the anger of returning empty-handed from the jungle without any game, thinking he would convince his kinsmen that the domesticated fowl was indeed a type of guinea fowl. Is the modern world not full of desperate men like that hunter?

The risk of violence and civil unrest surrounding the upcoming Nigerian presidential elections is a threat and while it may mean some global businesses temporarily exit the country taking their employees with them, G4S stands ready to protect its customers with an enhanced range of services available.
For customers who remain operational, they can be reassured that G4S’s capabilities in Nigeria are some of the best; including Close Protection Officers, Secure Transportation Services and Tracking and Response capabilities.
And due to growing demand, in January 2023 G4S increased its in-country workforce by 26% compared with the previous year.
The NATO Invitees associate themselves with this Statement.
1. As we solemnly mark one year of Russia’s brutal war of aggression against Ukraine, the gravest threat to Euro-Atlantic security in decades, we as Allies reaffirm our solidarity with the government and people of Ukraine in the heroic defence of their nation, their land, and our shared values. We pay tribute to the lives lost, and we deplore the tragic human suffering and destruction, including of Ukraine’s residential areas and civilian and energy infrastructure, caused by Russia’s illegal war.
To expose official corruption in Nigeria, re-orientate the psyche of Nigerians and usher in the Nigerian renaissance
