You police headquarters of Nigeria listen up

I heard the IG of Nigeria police police force is making plans of setting up a special squad to stop kidnappers and bandits.Although I commend him for that,I must confessed I felt very disappointed as a Nigerian hearing this from a man who ought to be knowledgeable about security strategies and tactics peculiar to our country nigeria

What you police commanders need to tackle this menace is not by setting up hundreds upon hundreds of police squads,but rather AI powered CCTV systems and drones.

I wonder how the squad will do magic when they have no video footage of a crime scene to examine when they arrive at a crime scene or the magic poorly equipped and multiple squads of policemen will do when they are unable to track bandits.The police really needs high performing drones with good endurance abilities in the air to track kidnappers right from the moment they are collecting the ransom paid until when the go back to their camp.

Mr IGP, if you see this and you are passionate about ending insecurities,make an emergency appeal to the president,and also senate to release funds to the Nigerian police force for acquisition of high endurance surveillance drones and also CCTVs to be installed in major streets and roads in Nigeria or in areas of high crime activities for a start.

Anything short of this is just moving aimlessly around the bush as there is no way the police can fight crime if they fail to make appropriate use of technology in clamping the wings of criminals.
