Good morning to you once again, Mr. Yaitouk Morning. Good morning. Good morning Well, so many big stories here on, you know, the newspapers from an alleged You know plot by iPod to Invade a dose that in fact the news say that they are already gathering in a dose state to the uncovering of an AK-47 Rifle production factory to Twitter vassals the president. Where do we begin? Twitter president obviously I I'm worried I keep using this expression and it bothers me that We don't seem to know what the office of the president of the Largest black nation on earth should mean When people compare the tweet of mr. President with the tweet of namdi Kano I just feel so sad and so belittled that the office of the president of the smallest country Cannot be compared with an individual of that country Not to talk up the person that we call the country we call the giant of Africa The largest city of the black world The president is compared to one young man somewhere and it's sad number two We run a government that does not appreciate and understand processes and administrative procedures of institutions There's a way that Twitter behaves and operates the moment that somebody post something and a certain number of people You know contest that that post find it offensive or flag that post Twitter is duty bound to take a second look at that and once they find something that is Unexpected they don't wait to see what another person had said they take action It shows responsibility It shows keeping to the tenets of of your personal dynamics and here is our minister of Information who should know about the Twitter more than any other person outside of probably the minister of Communication in fact he should know more about about Twitter because that's the information Communication is more like the technicalities and all those things but information the social media He should be the post and he doesn't really know how it operates and that's the person we have as our minister No, it's sad. It's unacceptable. It's offensive. I don't even know the words to use and then let's get to the substance Mr. President, you know, I watched that broadcast and You see talking about body language, you could see the total, you know, it disgusts. It's like It's an irritant and I asked myself I don't think that what I pop is doing is what I will support. I don't think so any day any time but please Where do we start to compare the activities of iPod and the activities of the Hertz men? Where do we start to compare? number of killings What the economy has been run down because farmers cannot go to farm national security or the lack thereof Because you cannot move freely on the road What is national security when farming and Unemployment is on the rise on account of people not being able to do their businesses. I popped it less one day sit at home while the the foreign fool any heads man foreign fool any heads man have held this country to ransom and My my my my minister has not rushed to issuing statements and hold press briefings. I Think that the time has come when we really should all wake up and ask ourselves what we want and where we're going from here That's my take on that matter. All right There's also something in uni lag where it says it fires Lecturers mentioned in sexual harassment Documentary that basically what you know as a follow-up to the Documentary that was done. I think about two years ago By the BBC Africa eye so is this of course a Victory for you know that documentary and of course at the same time one step towards ending sexual harassment in university system within the context of sexual harassment generally rape and all forms of act of Inhumanity where the females are the primary victims Some people have said that young boys are also victim which which is true But you will agree that the women the the females are more of the victims So to that extent anything that can be a deterrent is something that should be welcomed by all well-meaning Citizens so to that extent. Yes. I agree. There must be consequences We must know that when you do something wrong, there's something waiting for you That was why I held they are quite one step independent Electrical Commission I need when they were able to successfully Unfortunately jail a professor because of my practice on an election day Let's begin this process of consequences for our actions So to that extent I hail that the decision of uni lag and I agree with them completely I look forward to other sections of the society when Nigerians will know that there are consequences for actions. So for everything the three C's will always apply because the actions and the Consequences of the actions. So to that extent I agree and I think that that's the only reason I will see it as a main Subject matter on a discussion because they are setting subjects that I really don't even want to as much as mention or discuss This person has become and so what please let's talk something else But this matter I believe it's important enough for us to discuss and I hope that all other All other people that abuse the privilege in the institutions of Higher learning will realize that they are paid salaries to do the work and they are not there to abuse people or to be abused I think that's important to me within that context Okay, so another story we've seen here on the papers and especially on the daily times is a story of An assassination of autumn's security advisor because that a few months ago autumn had mentioned how he you know Basically ran for his life have to you know some gunmen attacked him on a farm You know it was a very big story at the time, but now he is his security advisor Has been you know was shot in the chest several times by gunmen on Tuesday come in You know shortly after Ahmed Gulak was killed. Well, what do you think about this? I? Think that I have been waiting to hear the press briefing by our minister of information on insecurity and Above all, I'm waiting to see the red of the eye of mr. President on The the way that our lives have been wasted on a daily basis and on a very present basis, you know or level Secondly Last week no week before last on this program. I did express my dismay that the inspector general of police You know express Seeming I don't know the word to use. It's like he had been overwhelmed And he was wondering what next to do Now this issue of the police telling me that I pop is gathering in a dough state Which is another news item related to this. I'm asking myself Why is he giving me that information? If the police have such intel What are they expected to do? We should stop hearing the police and start seeing their actions I should be the one that is complaining I should be the one the citizens should be the ones calling the police and say, oh, we are hearing this So we are seeing that it's called intel The police does not come to give the citizens intel It is the citizens that give the police intel and the police take action and Then we are emboldened to give them more intel and then they take more action And we are the safer for it and then people are afraid to do anything because they know that if they do anything The citizens will see them. They will get them across to the police and the police will deal with them That's the cycle that brings our peace and security in the country And not the police seemingly throwing their hands in the answer Guys, I'm hearing that there, you know, I pop people are gathering I'm starting to hear us Okay, things we have lost. I'm starting to talk. We're going to reconnect with him And continue the conversation and the review of these papers. There's still a couple of stories That we have left to go through There's one on the It was abroad in the restructuring and fiscal federalism Yes, there it's on the daily song actually And of course a lot, you know for your same agitation for self-determination not felony I hope that we can also go further into the ipop gathering in Edo state, you know and seeing, you know, what What part of that you What where the action government is expected to take, you know, have they broken any laws? Can people actually gather? Can people Travel freely? Yes, yes, the prescribed group and so gathering in the name of a prescribed group should be criminal But let's see where it goes, you know, it's it's it's always going to be our gt to remind the Nigerian police and security agencies Of the rights of Nigerians regardless of what the you know, the emotions are concerning certain things Um, rights still need to be respected. Now the law still needs to take its cause And you know, nobody's going to act based on their emotions or their own, you know, in personal biases There has to be that respect obviously It still is a prescribed group until then nobody should gather or travel, you know in the name of a prescribed group So yes, and I really wonder one more to take for us to properly restructure this country We've seen how in other countries where things like this happen when there's an internal agitation for something And then people in diaspora begin to fight for that same thing and even begin to protest in those other countries And just how those things spiral out of control. Now, we see the ebos abroad and mr. Yeah talk Can you hear me? Yes Okay, so I wanted to bring you in on the conversation about ebos abroad insisting on restructuring And to ask what what else would he take for the government to truly restructure the country and the valve powers the state Let me say this The earlier we wake up to the reality that the question of restructuring is is is is is is is is like an aircraft That has reached the what they call the piano, which is the point of no return No matter how we want to look at it There are cases that show that this country is not working Not only so there are things that have come to be in this country that has never been This is the first time in the history of this country that the southeast The south south The southwest have come together And now the middle belt have joined on a particular course The southeast the south south the southwest and the middle belt They have joined and they have the numbers right now So this issue of you know grandstanding really does it make sense? So, you know the issue is no longer the ebo saying they must be restructuring It is the question of over 75 percent of Nigerians Saying they must be restructuring Even the north Is it one day i'll do an analysis that will show that the north is better of Restructured because look we have a human pride The north is not is not unproductive The north is not unresourced food This stigmatization of the north as leeches or as as as parasites is wrong It's simply because we've created a system where it's so easy to just go to the center and collect And we are all going to the center to collect the only difference is that the resources are resident in the night delta Or in the south The resources that are resident in the north are so enormous Where several countries have been able to depend on the natural resources the gold the diamonds All sorts of mineral resources in the north the vast land I've always said If there was one country one state I would wish to be governor of it is Niger state Because the land there my networking with is released on agriculture. I will feed Africa I'll be a country on my own The same thing with the vast lands in the north And we're spending time talking about category category as if that is not that's not north Some of my best friends are not in us. These are intelligent articulate resourceful upwardly mobile people They because of the governance structure that we run we make them look like people who are beggars. They're not beggars We must restructure. Let everybody go back home. Let them start to bring about cerebral governance People who understand what governance is is of running politics and sharing oil I pray that the oil in Nigeria dries up. Let us wake up and think All right. Well, I'm not sure if we're ready for that, but let's us quickly also speak on Something on the Pontius Monon. It says 81 suspected kidnappers and bandits paraded 47 aka 47 rifles recovered Um, I guess, you know, this is something that we should you know Be happy about with regards to fight against insecurity Even if Nigerians have continued to also, you know, mention that parading suspects Is not Sure is wrong, you know, if they have not been found guilty that you shouldn't be, you know, parade them as criminals Yeah, two things Parading suspects has become a past time that I really can't understand what it means I want to see convicting Suspect Not parading suspects How many times have they been paraded and please can people tell me what has been the outcome of those that were paraded in the past? So please this public show is no longer this media trial is not what I want I want the police to come and show us people being escorted from the courtroom to the prisons These are people who have been convicted sentence That's what I want to see. That's what's going to gladden my heart And not you come and show me these people and then two years down the line You're seeing the same set of people in another part of town having the time of their life So what's that the show? No, but in with respect to aka 47 I want to even refer to a little story that somewhere where they cut a factory Is what in one of the papers where they manufacture aka 47? And the comment there is that the ones manufacture and the ones that are imported you can tell the difference Now instead of going to close down that factory Is it possible for the Nigerian army? To take over those people, you know abroad when they they are setting criminals that become, you know What they're calling they become, you know properties of state Because the crime is so intelligent That instead of just persecuting the person you bring him in and Kind of extract that technology or extract that knowledge and use it for better good of the society So if we have a factory a local factory that can do aka 47 to be that good Why we should not encourage them to continue? We should take them in and let them serve punishments in a special factory where they have Manufacturing that and that technology is enhanced and used in the larger interest of the country I think that is cerebral governance All right, we're out of time Is it going on? I thought thank you so much For your time this thursday morning and we wish you a very beautiful day ahead Thanks so much for having me. I can see your face. You can't see my bed. That's how it goes Thank you again. Thank you. All right Stay with us. We'll take a short break when we come back. We'll tell you what happened on this day in history I'm going back to the year 2012 to talk about a really really sad event Quite sad as well from my end in Ghana to stay with us
