It's what claims Zuma rock attack on soldiers some of the headlines on the front page of The Guardian we stick with that paper as we welcome once again open a ball in Kota area Missing Kota, right? Let's let's start with the big coverage by the Guardian on Nigeria's aviation sector. It's quite a very gloomy picture. The new super's report is Is painting only 38 of 90 planes are active as we speak Strange The aviation sector in this country has always been a mess in one problem or the other Both from the national carriers to go home by Individuals now when you talk of the national carriers, you're talking of management That led to the grounding of a lot of our planes And when you talk of those owned by private individuals could be let me quickly correct some Equal area. There is hate at the end of this area Since the apology is there for that since the apology so fix that. Yes. Yeah So The private airlines we all know what their problem is that it has to do mostly with cost of the Plane fuel was that because they want or something. Yeah, but I don't bring their problem, you know when this prices go up as Management or non management of the refinery We explored include which are always consumed because It's something to let me talk this in a format of logic. I can't comprehend how a country that is left with so much oil resources and There we have refineries in this country that are printed at optimal capacity That have been grounded intentionally by a cabal most of the government a cabal For some felt selfish reasons in order to make money. So we have sports these things the group and in force the finished products and so whenever you have For a market of course is definitely going to affect the price I listened to I think the chairman of F is when he said if you look at the cost of They want the passenger speed a passenger and you look at how much they make at the end of the day You find out that even to maintain the aircraft is a problem and don't forget Maintenance of aircraft is crucial is the most important because you're talking of safe And so it's quite expensive. This is All that charges, you know London charges these charges are all kinds of time so if if you increase the The fact if the becomes satisfying a lot of people are not going to fly. They're going to go by road Father in danger in their lives with the terrorism that has taken over the country So as a result of that a lot of that Because of the height in price in the fairs a lot of persons are not traveling And the only way this presence make their money is when you travel when you are there a passenger the turnover is Is the function of the number of passengers you can in a day and the number of flights you make in a day So in the plane for example at the doesn't fly Maybe if it also flies two three times a day to make money and it flies once in two days Are you going to pay it's crew? Why is it going to maintain the aircraft and this would like business to also make money So how are they going to make the money but investing rather than running to a loss the best thing is to ground the place And that is why out of our mind you have about 30 something, you know, it boils down to Poor leadership when I mean leadership are talking of a national leadership talking of the precedents Of the president so to speak a lot of people will say you keep talking about Mr. President You keep talking about Mr. President the boss starts at this table if today The issue of the security is contained if today we have a robust economy people will give the president the credit And so whenever you have Ineptitude matters are also the president takes the lead like I always say to people I say The annuals will find Their gas is released to the ends But when that happens put what which they would they do not they had When you know to a part you come the head you don't come the animals So the bus stops at the at the table of the president And this poor management is responsible for the grounding of another These best are almost a business man They are out to make profit and if the environment is hostile to them if they cannot make profit They cannot break even there what is the point and that is why you have a lot of this thing Grounding the bottom line is the official fuel. That is the bottom line, you know, they get it at a Exorbitant risk and Don't forget that if they don't dominate say because eventually the passengers the customers are the ones paying for it And if the customers if they don't have enough passengers, then they don't Don't be being in business and that is possible for the problems affect the abrasion they give the abrasion and Really really gah grim a grim picture right there upon a boy in court area Let's move on to to the the punch in a separate As long as the papers it's given some space to the security situation in the country Some some suspicion that they might be terror attacks in Lagos Another part of the country in the Southwest in the South South as well It says terror Lagos police and what take on a left You know, we've seen some frenzy the response by people out there I saw report even one of the papers over the weekend talking about the So-called foreigners who are serving as as cooks as cleaners as gate men security guards over call may guard You know for people in Lagos and the suspicion that they might be used as tools by terrorists some of us in the media have had to try and count people down to let people know, you know, these are people who are Refugees from northern Nigeria who don't have any way of staying back home and they rush down south But what are your thoughts on what's going on and then the reports of possible terror? Activity or terrorist activity in Lagos in particular This is coming in the punch in a simple by the way Sorry, yeah, please go Okay, yes I must tell you that it is unfortunate that There is this concatenation of death kidnapings Attempts and so on But be the security situation in the security the country has assumed apocalyptic dimension This is location by Cataclysmic leadership, you know, you have a morass of leadership back huge institution where you have a president That I thought I'm confined with the lungs is on the long soil down in the land of indiscretion complicity on the line that complicity and inertia I Made you run in terms of crime and criminality in this country The David Cynet president said on the floor of the house that Before the kudjai they'll break I think it's kudjai They'll break that they had about 44 42 of 44 security reports And the federal government did nothing and when Mr. President went to kudjai prisons he blamed it on Intel lack of intel but now the end DSS has come out to contract The issue or they gave the federal government about 42 reports after that heads are not ruled In any civilized crime you have the minister for in chief designing We've come to a general of prison or correction centers or whatever they call the problem I'm not it is this country world's land by the morass of policy The issue has nothing to do with nomenclature. That's not the problem Now you call them correctional centers. They are not correctional centers They are correctional centers in civilized crime because people in prison go to school They go there for reformation and water. They're not in Nigeria Not correctional centers But that's an aside To have the kudjai general of prisons permitted to think of a prison or prison Still in office. I'm nothing I've happened remember There was a Kudjai general of police I think the one before this one or the one before this the president is kudjai general's predecessor immediate predecessor Who was ordered to relocate to bronostics? by president muhammadubuwari Few months later the president visited bronu only to be told that the idea never slept in bronu for one day What was the president's response? He was going to go back to abuda and investigate their claims That was the end of it the idea retires You have the issue of the former service chiefs The national security advisor The their successors Like the the other service chiefs at abuda and kogwerubu Came on air To say they cannot find on ground They are equipment arms and ammunition That monies were located for This service chiefs and his colleagues received this money But nothing on ground To justify their location to the defense ministry I'm talking about the nsc And the current services serve The one that died in the plane crash the chief of army staff Including sorry save the president Chief of army staff then he was not chief of army staff All of them said the same thing What did mr. President do that when i said on the line that was complicity What did mr. President do? He rewarded their ineptitude their mouth to serve He rewarded their complicity with ambassadorial appointments How how how did you explain that? Now you are in zanfarah state We are a criminal a terrorist on the one side In the full clear of security of prejudice And the federal government was to banned On the one side was to banned How do you justify this? Now if such a thing should happen in the east Or in the south Or even in the west They would have raided or destroyed that village That community if not even the whole state We know what happened in the north in the east recently Then you have Accurated the rule The government on those things Who are there? That everybody should back up the bush The forest And water What's that thing called again counting that's when is the administration taking What was the reaction of the federal government? We all know that human beings don't live in the forest You have to be a criminal to live in the forest We all know that What was the federal government's reaction? That you at the 19th you have a right to decide where I want to decide Meanwhile Meanwhile These are criminals Terrorists and the hideouts they're above in the forest You have a government Where Bumi Who was not acting at the behest of the federal government Visited these so-called terrorists Came out and when Mr. President said On that that the terrorists should be wiped out Bumi said that was impossible to think 25 to respond them That this will continue unless there is a rapprochement Challenging the federal government and it has continued You know you have a lot of a culture of instances a whole lot of them What does it has complicity? The federal government is not willing and remember it was the same Buhari Who said When they are done That the security of it should go after the Boko Haram He said if amnesty could be granted the militants Amnesty should also be given to these terrorists This same Buhari was won the terrorist nominated then the rapprochement has banned it To speak for them At the negotiation table although he declined But it speaks volumes. What is your relationship with them? And it was a governor In the north In the north Who came out to say That the president Vice-president candidate to What is meant again, Tini Buu Was the one funding this banning He's been a sessor but I think I'm going to show you for soon Directly accused them And also went for that to say Can this so-called terrorism is protected ahead of the 2015 development I don't forget the notorious comment That the idea has to be seen in their blood and baboon for whatever You can remember all this if you imagine all this things It is not perfect my dear brother All right Now back to the security Unfortunately Because of this that we are the captain If we are so random we are the captain Who was arrested Who was acting in Kahuki this terrorist What has happened to it that issue has been set under the carpet And the soldier was arrested Handcuffs Both hand and legs The man was to squeal He was killed the day he took a gun A man in handcuff took a gun From security approaches and shot himself How ridiculous Coffee It is the awesome kind of situation Don't go out and talk The awesome The man accused of killing J.S.K. John F. Kennedy In the same situation You know so you can go on and on and on And that is what I think is intractable It is now a great trade Because of I tell you when this man was released He said I'm talking of this I'm talking of the 12 victims Those who went his people who went for his release said Although they requested for a hundred million What actually got to the target was 900 and something Because the soldiers they made about two sets One the first one said My friend gave me 200,000 men out there It's in public domain That when you get to the target you don't understand Just say to them that you get to me Soldiers they don't announce it Oh we sympathize with you But I go and they push They just send us to this bush Without proper welfare The governor will send you They won't pay your allowances They won't give you these They won't give you So please we are This is a debt trap Let us enjoy what we are like Give us our own When you go there the tyrants will understand So you see there's that synergy Excuse me there's that synergy There's that understanding So even though you said So go out and quell this situation I'm making a lot of money from it And I can tell you That their service teams are aware It's like the policemen The one that was arrested and dismissed He was dismissed because he came and asked to say it Otherwise why will I age on that It is smuggling of roadblocks You are commanders You are commissioners of police industry So you are asserting highway Age of order just coming on roadblocks You still have the roadblocks going on You know what it is What this combination is In the military But you age on that Stop it's the way that you see me It's a great case of high blood Excuse me Sorry I have cough I'm very sorry You know it's a case of high blood pressure Of the certain blood clots and an anemia of concrete performance That is what is going on in this country And that is why the security situation is exacerbated It's still hard And in conclusion In conclusion cooking In conclusion it was an abduction In general a former head of state Former chief of amnesty Who said When you are in security in the country That last for more than twenty four hours Technically it has the endorsement of the problem All right it's it's it's quite unfortunate And you've been to the picture right there Upon Abo and Kotaria I mean Not a successful attempt to That is even even if if there's been an attempt at all To rescue the Kalduna bound A train kidnapped victims And despite you know Some some clues as to where they are You know this last set of four Three of which were seen before the press These last set of four were were freed On the Aboja Kalduna road That's where they were dropped It's quite unfortunate We just hope for the best and We pray that the families can raise the funds To release them because that's what it seems like Right now but I mean remember Some some years ago in River State Kidnapping was the order of the day I mean you're traveling from Pohakot to Oweri You know you have to You have to say the Lord's Prayer And then of course your family will keep calling you Every region because Between River State and Oweria was a hotbed And there are not a few a few people Who have been in there And have been captured and released Claimed they claimed That some of the police officers who were Because there was a checkpoint There were checkpoints around there A lot of police checkpoints Moving from River State to to you know Emo State Claimed that the officers knew what was going on And there was a business Because they had a deal You know so If these things continue As an addition As an addition to what you just said Like I said To this journalist And you're quite confident of what is going on There are so many things that you cannot even say on air That you know is going on You know Based on your findings You know But then let me tell you this Govind Do you know That you can carry an AK-47 in your vehicle Not license Of course They can't give you license AK-47 in your vehicle All you need to do is have a knob in your Buck in your bucket The police now will arrest you You give them the money and you go But carry What is this on a gun? Maybe a tissue If you don't drive it You're going They arrest you And they go and make a public show of it That I think they are working The authorities are accomplices They are making a whole little gravy trade They are making a whole lot of money You know the greatest business Anywhere you go on Is the security business Both legal and illegal Legal in the sense that Just like the former chief of families The service chiefs They make a lot of money Let us do this They don't even want it to end So the votes will be coming That's the truth Then when we talk of the illegal aspect of it The criminals They collect this ransom and they share I don't mention the campaign I don't mention what happened If it's you, I don't do that So the military is involved There is a former chief of families That is a former defense minister He won't just be talking Is that the military is involved You know, I don't do myself so And that is not a security report That I informed his conviction So you can't just dismiss that like that You can't just make a flaw of it It's not possible It's not possible It is unfortunate That the country is sinking into the swamp That's as a result of this security situation Quite a quack Okay, Mr. Singotaro We have to move on We have to move on Because we are out of time And I mean The security situation in the country Seems to be taking the chunk of The attention on the front page Of the major national dailies I wish you had more time to look at other stories But we're pressed for time And so we would like to thank you very much For joining us today And we hope that next time You're sitting here to analyze Things will be a bit better We can only but hope And we can only but pray Thank you very much for your time We'll put an end to the public affairs analyst And he's been our guest Thank you For the breakfast this morning All right, still the breakfast We have more conversations coming up Of course, when we return We look at some interesting stories And conversations with our guest Analysts right here on the program But before that Let's check out what happened on this day First of August in history
