How to Tackle Armed Robbery in Nigeria
Armed robbery is one ugly social vice which is believed to exist in all countries of the world. However, it seems that the menace is rampant in developing and underdeveloped nations of the world.
Nigeria has about 140 million people. The population is made up of a good number of the healthy working population. This working population is mainly young people who are skilled labor, semi-skilled labor, or unskilled labor. Most of these young people leave school without being employed for years.
They are not unemployed because they can't work but simply because there are no job opportunities where they can fit in themselves. Some of them roam the streets in search of menial jobs in order to make both ends meet while the lazy ones or those that felt that the society is not happy with them becomes angry and turn to armed robbery among other social vices too numerous to mention.
The government established the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) and charged the men in black with the responsibility of checking armed robbery and other crimes in the society. But it seems the spate of armed robbery in the country is increasing exponentially by the day. Does is it mean that the Police Force are not doing enough?
The problem is that the police are not yet well equipped to tackle the menace. In addition, there are many bad eggs in the police force that go as far as collaborating with the armed robbers. The government should ensure that those recruited into the force are people of good reputation. The government should adequately equip and fund the police force.
The bad eggs that are already in the police force should be detected and flushed out. The police force should go on training tour from time to time.
