I saw something yesterday that has perhaps been happening without me taking cognizance of: a serving senator going about with a security detail of up to 20. My knowledge of numbers did not fail me and I began to wonder and do the arithmetic in my head. It means that senators may have at least 106*20 which is 2120 security personnel attached to them. If on the average, 7 security personnel are attached to a HoR member, then it means we have about 2520 security personnel attached to the HoR members thus bringing the total to 4640 security personnel for 469 people. How then do we fight crime when some LGAs do not have up to 100 security personnel stationed in them? Are the masses being milked to secure the elites?

Ask them ooo, they milk the masses to secure the elites
