Menace of checkpoint abusers - Blueprint Newspapers Limited (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Without a doubt, erection of checkpoints on our roads within and outside the towns, have become a part of our security culture. Even before the proliferation of serious security challenges, starting with the emergence of Boko Haram in the North-East axis in the late 2000s, checkpoints were known to dot our highways, perhaps more in number than road signs.

Read excerpt
Today, I am stepping away from topics that have constantly dominated this space for a long while… insecurity. You will agree with me that repetitive commentaries can elicit ennui no matter how relevant or well packaged they are. As a typical Nigerian will put it, variety is the spice of life. Imagine eating “egusi” or “ewedu” soup ever and anon. Your appetite, however hungry you may be, will abandon you at one point. My sermon today is on headcount, which rarely gets adequate attention from our
