A former Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, in this interview with, examines the rising wave of criminality across the country and how to address the challengeInsecurity is a very big problem

and you should appreciate that we are just coming out of elections. Most of the foot soldiers that were occupied one way or the other now have a very big space to play. Apart from that, insecurity in the country has been a big problem over the years. You can geo-locate it: In the North-East, you have terrorism; in the North-Central and North-West, cattle rustling and banditry. Sometimes, I wonder why we don’t have institutional memory of issues.

Experts have said the IG’s office is over-centralised. Do you subscribe to the decentralisation of the police force? Are you worried about the spate of extrajudicial killings by policemen in recent times? What should be done? I tried to come up with psychometric test for policemen. We should do some random sampling for operatives we deploy outside. If we are going to deploy officers outside, policing function is very stressful; it is not everybody that can handle stress. There is a limit to which you can manage stress. In many jurisdictions, you don’t allow policemen to work for 24 hours without changing them. That’s why I was always talking about technical platform. We over-deploy our men.

That's very correct but we all are aware that what other organized country frown at is what we take as a way of life here in Nigeria.

Na only citizens that they're supposed to be protecting body Nigeria police get power Useless animals

They say the truth when they are out.

Most of the guys turn great advisers and 'Mr know all' after leaving the office they fail to make impact in.
