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....

A manipulated Democracy

 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.

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, unlike dictatorships, have a moral claim on the allegiance of the people, but today in Nigeria, the impoverishment of the people is the foundation for the condemnable actions and inaction of the government.

Indeed, indiscipline, lawlessness, crime, all forms of criminality and evil are sign posts of daily life across the country.
