so prayers would provide a crime free society?

common folks!, what were u expecting the dude to say,that he will drive all armed robbers into the sea by 2010,that all kidnappers will be whisked away to some jail,that his boys will stop "collecting"? he said what u expect such a man to say at that point in time. whether he promised or assured,what we really want him to do is start with his boys first. not to take contracts and store bags of cash in his office. but the nigerian police work is even made harder by the govt who doesnt pay them good salaries and grant them credit facilities to build their own houses,pay their wards schools fees and have atleast a lil japanese ride like their counterparts in many parts of the world. and plz Yar`sick,change the boys uniform to something good and let them have spares. (bt the spares should not be for renting to armed robbers oooo

yawn!!!!!!!! Let his actions speak, we've all heard this before, please spare us the ca-ca,

lets see if u can keep to ur words

Although, I don't know the newly appointed Acting Inspector General of Police, Ogbonna Okechukwu Onovo, but something interest in this man. For those who have forgotten, this is the second time Onovo is acting as Inspector General of Police (having acted for one day when Sunday Ehindero left office until Mike Okiro was appointed Inspector General).

So, what is it that interests me? From all indication, he must me a patience, focussed and highly tolerant personality. Otherwise, he would have left the Police force due to arrogance when he almost got the mantle of leadership but missed it by the whisker only for the mantle to be giving to an officer whom it is rumoured Onovo is senior to (I stand to be corrceted here).

With that singular dislpay of sportmanship and tolerance Onovo deserves the respect and co-operation of not just the Police Force but that of Nigerians as well. I am sure he will succeed. In order for Onovo to succeed (not in the contest of amassing wealth as seen in the case of Sunday Ehindero) he should lay his hands on the speech delivered by Barrack Obama in Ghana. It can serve as a blue print.

Just few quotes from the speech:

"No country is going to create wealth is its leaders exploit the economy to enrich themselves"

"No business(man) wants to invest in a place where the government skims 20% off the top or the head of the Port Authority is corrupt"

"No person wants to live in a society where the rule of law gives way to rule of brutality and bribery"

"Governments that respect the will of the people, that govern by consent and not by coercion, are more prosperous, more stable and more
successful than governments that do not"

I wish Mr. Ognonna Okechukwu Onovo the best in his acting capacity and his eventual confirmation. Younger Nigerians have a lot to learn from your personality.

Initial GRA GRA, Very soon someone will open a can of worms. Onovo! Watch your back.
All the same wish you luck in your crusade.

@Poster
Onovo is not the acting IG he is the Inspector General dude.

talk is cheap! for crying out loud, what else did we expect him to say? did tafa balogun or mike okiro
not mouth the same words at inception? what would have been our reaction if balogun at inception
had come out publicly to say, "i will steal billions of naira. i will promote corruption more than my
predecessor"? would he have lasted more than a day on that seat? so, they know the right words to
say to fool the gullible while later on their actions just goes to prove the very opposite!

is Onovo in acting capacity or he's fully incharge ?
the man should adress the issue of bribery in force and killing of innocent citizens by his men.

walakolobo:

The IG has promised more armed robbery in the country, more crimes, more rapes, more 419, more yahoo, yahoo, in fact, he has promised more police brutality.

Does the above statement sound better than the one made by Mr Onovo? you fools.

Sharrapp dia! You are probably from Onovo's village. Let nobody tell us what they'll do let them just shut up and do it! Talk is cheap!

dint thet all say that? abeg jo, give the jobless and hopeless something to do first

na today we begin hear say nyash dey back,make e go sleep cos na the same uniform all of them dey wear,

abi. this is a usual thing in this country. i pray for the future of this country

What a wonderful nursery rhyme.Any way is a fine man,i don't mind him.May be l will get my own share of the national cake this time around.Brothers in the house help get their.I will not forget u people.

the guy is living in a fool's paradise

Hope Onovo is not consumed by a scandal on his way out. He should shine his eyes very well.

"How can I say what I think till I see what I say"-E.M. Forster. I wish Onovo could tell the masses new things for we've tired of hearing same things over and over again. For him to promise to continue the good works of his predecessors alone makes him a failure even before his confirmation. Let's pray for a man like Fasola as a president, this nation will start crawling and before we know what's going on the nation will start walking. Let's continue praying someday God'll deliver us from the hands of these tyrants that parade themselves as leaders.

Of course! Free to the extent that the IG or their spouse ends up being stinkingly rich e.g Tafa, Sunday ,
I already know the outcome of this, i think he should rearrange the wordings to "Free Crime Society". I am yet to trust the Nigerian Police, it reminds me of the kind of police you see in Indian films ,  you know the story.

yeah, right. he wants to continue the 'good works' of his predecessor

Hmmn, I guess he sud start by changin their uniforms 4rm black 2sth less evil-lookin, I av no confidence in d Nigerian police as my heart skips a beat wen i get stopped by dem on d road, They cud be robbers or kidnappers. i wish him wel tho lets hope he is d 'messiah' of d police force.

partiality in the police (force). officers in blue, 'other ranks' in devil black!

Another noise maker.
i will love to see a crime nigeria under the regime of a man that has no vission

Yeah right? Was what ur predecessor said before manifested some bullshit.

I wish onovo the best of luck

i can read more from what this man in not saying than from the usual
blabbles he is mouthing
