I hate it when Nigeria police paraded some miscreants and petty thieves as notorious armed robbers.Agreed the are robbers but petty thieves ,we need the police parade these sophisticated robbers with highly modernized weapons not this one with local made double hunting barrel.A job half done is a job not done.To bring pride to the force we want them to start showing us their competency by going for those harden criminals not only the petty pick pockets .
Spare me
