A security expert, Rev. Amb. Chris Natty Rissi has identified politicisation of security as a major bane on high rise in insecurity increase in the nation.
Rev. Rissi, also noted that if nothing urgent is done it could portend great danger to the survival of the nation.
Rev. Rsissi who doubles as Deputy National commander, Operations, Intelligence, Monitoring and Rescue, Nigeria man O’War made the declaration while speaking to journalists over recent development in the nation.
The security expert said even the president of the country, President Mohammadu Buhari acknowledges high rise in insecurity.
According to him, it is high time, government at all levels look inward in solving the menace. No country politicises security and live in peace.
Rev. Rissi equally advocated that the newly inaugurated community policing should be taken serious to curtail wide spread of kidnapping, cultism, banditry, rape and other forms of vices threatening peaceful coexistence of Nigeria.
He lamented the high level of political interest that played out during the recruitment of community policing.
The Man O’War deputy commander frowned seriously at the stoppage of Rivers State Neighbourhood Watch by the Federal Government, pointing out that Operation Omotekon in the West had been allowed to operate freely. In the oil rich state, police alone cannot do it”, the commander stated.
He emphatically said the support of the locals were needed to nib crime in the bud, and advised the federal government to assign specific role to organised paramilitary such Man O’War, VCA having been established in 1951 by the federal government.
Meanwhile, Rev. Amb. Chris Natty Rissi, Deputy Commander Operations Nigerian Man O’War has said that the recent sack of Rivers State Task Force Team led by Bright Amaewhule is in order.
Rev. Rissi however, said the unbecoming attitude of the dissolved task force members warranted Governor Nyesom Wike to sack them.
He advised the governor to ensure proper orientation and scope of duty before constituting a new team.
