FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM IN NIGERIA IS HINDERED BY CORRUPTION, TRIBALISM, AND RELIGIOUS BIAS!
By Ebikefe Frank
The fight against terrorism in Nigeria faces significant challenges, including allegations of corruption, tribalism, and religious bias within the government and military. Some of the concerns include:
1- LEAKED INTELLIGENCE: Sensitive information may be compromised, allowing terrorists to evade capture.
2- ALLEGIANCE OVER NATIONAL INTEREST: Prioritizing personal or group interests over national security can hinder counter-terrorism efforts.
3- CORRUPTION: Misuse of funds allocated for counter-terrorism initiatives can undermine their effectiveness.
To address these issues, Nigeria may need to implement reforms, such as:
1- INCREASED TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY: Ensuring that security operations are transparent and accountable can help build trust and effectiveness.
2- MERIT-BASED APPOINTMENTS: Appointing officials based on merit rather than tribal or religious affiliations can help reduce bias.
3- ROBUST OVERSIGHT: Strengthening oversight mechanisms can help prevent corruption and ensure that security funds are used effectively.
By addressing these challenges, Nigeria can strengthen its counter-terrorism efforts and improve national security.
