Adolf Hitler labeled the extermination of the Jews in Europe' the final solution', while the military dictatorship in Argentina, which embarked on an unprecedented killing of its citizens, code named the same ''The process of National Integration''.  The activities of insurgents and armed herdsmen, which have claimed thousands of lives, are similar to the above-mentioned things.  Between 1976 and 1983, millions of citizens lost their lives in Argentina. Death squads operating under secret circumstances and under the cover of the state murdered about 11, 000 people, which are now described as ''The Disappeared''.  Two million people escaped persecution, while hundreds of babies born to ''The Disappeared'' were either sold, bartered or murdered.  Indeed, events in many states of Nigeria, including Benue, Taraba, Plateau, Borno among others, indicate that the government is fully aware of the insecurity, even as the killings continue....

  Peaceful change and superior honesty are two among the advantages of democracy. However, the alteration of the truth brings about disillusionment among the people and the continuous worrisome bloodshed of human lives is reflecting negatively on governance. All governments from time immemorial have been characterized by the twin evils of corruption and embezzlement of public funds. In addition, laws are hurriedly enacted for the preservation of the rot in the system. In dictatorships, the ruling party takes the position of the state, and ensures that the profession of a particular set of political opinions becomes the first qualification for those in the Civil and Public Service, rather than competence and honesty. However, although governments are liable, there are weapons to fight it in a democracy which is suppressed in dictatorship's form is labeled Glieshaltung, unifying the state. This form of corruption is not removed by dictatorships, but remodeled. Democratic governments,...

A statistician, W. Edwards Deming, made use of the principles of variation as proposed by American Mathematician, Walter Shewart in business processes, in relation to quality and productivity in Japan. In recognition of Deming's efforts, the Japanese business community put in place a prestigious annual prize, the Deming prize, for companies that achieve visible advancement in quality. He successfully established the fact that business processes are exposed to deterioration in quality through variation. This has, to a great extent, assisted Japanese industrialists to improve the quality of their products. The quality circle or Deming circle is now known as Total Quality Management(TQM). Te circle comprises a group of workers who seek to improve the processes of production through planning, implementation of the plan, assessment, evaluation and correction.

   Lawlessness, indiscipline, criminality, evil, ignorance, idleness, and illiteracy are the basic foundations of terrorism.  Presently, the upbringing of young people, strange doctrines, and very abnormal ways of life in several communities in Nigeria speak volumes.  Without doubt, the known and unknown conditions for breeding and training the unthinkable and avoidable have been met in communities such as Molusi, Onafuwa Solanke, Oyegbami, Olorunsogo, Molete, Aluko, Felele, and Scout Camp, among several others in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria.  A very careful observation will unearth the fact that a different strain of terrorism is gradually taking root in this part of Nigeria.  Children and young adults now commit crime under the watchful eyes of their parents and guardians, without consequences. Learning may not be the primary focus in most schools presently, as immorality gains a solid root. Cultism, prostitution, sodomy, homosexuality, pedophili...

Most public primary and secondary school students learn in environments that are not encouraging in Nigeria.  The facilities have been stretched to obsolete conditions as a result of improper planning by the government at all levels.  Considering the dilapidated toilet facilities in several of these schools and the absence of potable and drinkable water, the potential outbreak of an epidemic cannot be ruled out. Teachers are no longer dedicated to duty due to their nightmarish working conditions.  Cultism has taken root in most of these schools, while "armed robbers" in school uniforms dot the nooks and crannies of every part of the country.  Indeed, cultists, mostly young people, are now strategic stakeholders in elections in many states. Of worry is the lack of sincerity on the part of the government in the implementation of programs and policies.  On the part of private schools, moral decadence, which is a major feature in public schools, is the issue, while ...
