 Elder Statesman Calls for Separation of Politics and Security Concerns, Urges Shift in Perspective


By David Okpala/Stella Okpala


Retired Commander, Agbelu Improvement Union(AIU), Vigilance Group, Nze Titus Onyekesi has advocated attitudinal change with regard to mixing politics with security issues, describing it as shooting oneself in the leg.


He said this in an interface with information officers, at his residence, Agbelu Village Akpo, in Aguata LGA.


The Commander noted that security is so important ay politics should not be added to it to avoid undermining it.


He described politics as a game of struggle to getting to power, urging citizens to endeavour to separate  security from political propaganda. 


According to him, "If you use propaganda to create insecurity just to discredit government in power, even if you get to power through that action, you must have created ungovernable environs for yourself.


"It is easy to give guns to youths to helping win election but quite impossible to get these guns back from them.  Let us apply wisdom while playing politics."


Nze Onyekesi wondered why an Igbo man who is not bad upstairs will go as far as carrying his own father's funeral outside his father's compound.


"It is better imagined than seeing it done in another state, only to blame it on insecurity.


"Funeral rite is traditional obligation as such involves ancestors. So, doing it outside the compound of the deceased is not only abominable but provocative to the gods of the land.


"Keep away Christianity from this issue, after all every religion believes in life after death.


"Same applicable to those of us who carry out traditional marriage outside ancestral home of the bride. It is culturally wrong. The ancestors may rise demanding what belongs to them.


"Though these things are blamed on insecurity. Where do we have security eldorado in Nigeria today. The right answer to this question is no where."


He enjoined affluent to help beef up security in their ancestral villages, provide incentives, security gadgets to rural vigilance group and see them perform creditably.


Nze Onyekesi pleaded with government to maximize attention to rural vigilance group.


He believes that if proper training are given to them, adequate logistics provided, there is tendency that they present their communities secured, thereby saving government stress of insecurity problems.
