Why Nigerian security always dispatch security after crime? But sleep in the barrack before crime. They ought to be on the road outside 27/7 day and night protecting properties and common citizen that is what they are paying to do not by waiting for crime to happen and dispatching security. this is a fail system need to be fix and beginning of corruption.
