The 66 days the Nigerian Senate held plenary sessions in the outgone year a testimony to the fact that the lawmakers take Nigerians for granted.
This assertion was made by an Ex-Officio of the Oyo State Council of the Trade Union Congress(TUC), who is also a former Chairman of the union in the state, Comrade Andrew Emelieze.

''The lawmakers sat only for 66 days in 2021, this is not in line with the constitutionally stipulated minimum requirements for the period. This has shown that they have always taken Nigerians who they claim to represent for granted.
The lawmakers are able to do this and get away with it because Nigerians are docile,'' Comrade Emelieze declared.

The function of a government goes beyond ensuring law and order, the arrangements to permit change must be functional. Change must revolve around consent and permission from the people.

In several climes, the toleration of criticisms by governments attracted peaceful change and those who had visible potentials to partake in government are brought on board. But sadly, the fact that legislative chambers at the Federal and a number of states did not meet the minimum constitutionally stipulated sitting requirements in the outgone year is a great setback.

Indeed, there is no ideal government for all places and there is no ideal for all times.

The security situation across Nigeria, the attitude of security and law enforcement personnel, and government go beyond scratching the surface.

When Government does not change promptly with the situation, the people become a major part of the challenges confronting the government.

The experience of France at the end of the 18th century and Russia in the 20th century is instructive on the necessity for change.

Note

The docile nature of government officials, for pecuniary reasons, can be seen in the activities of an individual who sighted poultry at No. 2 Kehinde Aderibigbe Street, Olorunsogo, Molete, Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria(red gate).

Sighting poultry in a residential area constitutes a great danger to residents while the several numbers of doubtful characters who visit the poultry on a daily basis pose security threats for residents who still contend with crime and criminality.

Government must live up to its responsibilities.

(A Psalm of praise.) Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.

2 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

3 Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

5 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.

16 When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall.

17 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.

18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

19 A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer.

20 Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him.

21 He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.

22 An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.

23 A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.’’

Similarly, the Holy Quran 2 : 269 refers, ‘’He granteh wisdom to whom He pleaseth, and he to whom wisdom is granted receiveth indeed a benefit overflowing ; but none will receive admonition except men of understanding.’’

For all troubled nations to attain a state of felicity we must base exemplary lifestyels on the virtues spelt out in the scripture.

Remember Allah and ask for forgiveness for their sins,- and who can forgive sins except Allah ?- And are never obstinate in persisting knowingly in the wrong they have done.’’

Use the SWOT analysis for the above mentioned bible verses of wisdom for exemplary lifestyles, to be able to make necessary adjustment to achieve the goal of safe and secured environment for rapid development.

From the religious point of view, the right to personal liberty of any individual is naturally restricted, when sinful acts are committed, criminal or civil, in a way that the long hands of the law catches up with such an individual. As a result such a person’s movement is restricted.

There is a need for all to conscious of the fact that the right to personal liberty guarantees the quality or state of being free. This makes us to realize the fact that the ability to do as one pleases must not be abused, since it guarantees a benefit of freedom from physical restraint, freedom from arbitrary or despotic control and the positive benefits of various socio-political or economic rights and privileges.

The right to personal liberty is freely enjoyed by children and the youth in their Id and ego stages of life, whereby parents are totally responsible for their care and protection. This is why good parenting is required to ensure that the children enjoy the right to personal liberty under their parents.

In the general society, the power or scope to act as one pleases extends to the state of being free withing the society, from oppressive restrictions imposed by the authorities on an individual’s way of life.

This equally bothers on the two perspectives of behavior and political inclination.

This makes it imperative for every citizen to be law abiding by ensuring that one’s liberty is never used in form of abuse or in an act which may be harmful to a person, society or the nation at large.

Indeed, personal liberty must be cherished by channeling it towards the positive aspects life to make one independent, self-sufficient, innovative and creative, straightforward person to be trusted.

Personal liberty leads to the empowerment of the citizen, who contributes positively to a nation’s development.

The right to personal liberty, therefore, ensures that every citizen irrespective of status is entitled to personal liberty and must not be deprived of such liberty, except in a procedure permitted by law.
