The Complicity of Those-in-Charge

In the last three years, various meetings held between Those-in-Authority and individuals who insist that they have been shortchanged in the political and electoral process in a number of states.

These meetings have only successfully exposed the self-centered and selfish mindset of Those-in-Authority.
The decision not to honor the agreements and abide by decisions taken jointly has dimmed the prospects of an unspecified number of political office holders to cling on to power in 2023 and beyond.
Indeed, the realization that their choices for political offices are not fit and proper persons to be entrusted with such offices took a long time to manifest.

The illiterate population in several communities is a significant part of the problem.
Seasoned politicians opine that Those-in-Authority presently had from the onset prepared a different agenda which has resulted in the bad shape of governance in the affected states.
It is a known fact that the POLICE are constitutionally authorized to effect the arrest, to apprehend persons who have committed offenses or who are alleged to have committed offenses.

In the same vein, it is the duty of the state to, afterward prosecute all these persons who were arrested.
What is the situation? Non-state actors who have continuously terrorized citizens are left as though they have committed no offenses and to this extent, Nigerians believe that this does not go down well for democracy.
The selective enforcement of the law is the order of the day, while certain non-state actors still operate as though they are above the law, which suggests that they are acting on orders from above to create all kinds of havoc in these states.

-Law Enforcement: The Reactionary Approach
Lawlessness, crime, all forms of criminality, and evil continue unabated right before the eyes of Those-in-Authority with no sign that any action shall be taken to curtail this ugly trend.
This attitude of Those-in-Authority is not only contrary to the spirit and laid down rules of the constitution, but it is also diabolical and evil.
