Naija matter don land again as former Big Brother Naija star, Leo Da Silva, don dey vex ground over police strategy wey no dey work well to catch ‘one chance’ cabman for street. This ‘one chance’ wahala dey affect plenty people for major cities like Lagos and Abuja. Leo no carry mouth for back as he take to X (we sabi am as Twitter) to fire shots at the police deployment wey fit make sense. Him talk say ef police fit just focus on bus stops wey be the main ground for these scammers, e go help us better!
Di reality TV star no dey play o, him yarn say: “Nothing dey make me vex pass this ‘one chance’ matter. Dem dey do mini kidnap, mini banditry. Instead of police dey do useless checkpoints wey no fit catch anybody, make dem focus for bus stops to catch these guys!” Herh! E make sense sha, because we don see many people don fall victim for those bus stops.
As Leo drop am, one officer for police side, wey dey respond to him, na Benjamin Hundeyin. Him talk say enforcement no be just about action, but also about how dem go take protect people from wahala like undue harassment. Him dey reason am say: “If we carry our people go bus stops, you go still come complain say police dey disturb you, dey profile you, and dey make you delay.” Na true talk be that, because we no wan encounter wahala for bus stop wey suppose be stress-free o.
Hundeyin, wey no wan make police wahala on top innocent citizens, suggest say make dem use CCTV wey dey work 24/7 for all bus stops. Na good move abeg, because technology fit improve policing while we no go dey cause wahala for commuters. E explain say this technology no go come from their side, but e go help them well well!
After all dis gist, Leo come drop another tweet again wey he dey explain say his main aim na to direct police manpower to where crime dey happen. Him no sabi wetin make Benjamin talk for first reply, but him dey stand on di fact say make dem catch this ‘one chance’ people. “Instead of deploying checkpoints, why not use that manpower to catch these criminals?” E no dey wrong abeg, as we sabi say Abuja and Lagos dey face serious challenge from these ‘one chance’ operators.
Dis matter don make plenty people for social media begin dey talk. Many of dem dey support Leo’s call for specific wahala enforcement strategies wey go focus on crime hotspots while no dey disturb di normal people wey just wan catch bus. Na so e be, as dem dey call for police to sabi wetin dem dey do for streets and make am better for everybody.
