You focus on very few things, maybe two or three. All the demonstrations we had in Europe, there are very few unique situations where police use their weapons; 99.9 per cent, no weapons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, we offer to train for best practices. You have a great chance when you train 30,000 young women and men to become policemen, you take the best. It\u2019s a big chance for you now when you train young people. This the future of the police of Nigeria, so you train them well from the first moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The retired IG said there were many policing experts in Germany willing to support the reformation of the Nigeria Police, adding that he was ready to engage with the authorities on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/08\/17\/hushpuppi-police-panel-submits-amended-report-on-abba-kyari\/\">training<\/a> modalities and start as soon as possible, noting that this was his vision.<\/p>\n<p>But the German\u2019s position on the management of protests without the use of firearms was quickly countered by Smith, who said Nigerian protesters were usually armed and law enforcement agents mostly have to defend themselves from assault.<\/p>\n<p>He stated, \u201cLet me draw your attention to one issue. When we have protests or demonstrations in this country, it would not be fair to compare it to the ones in Europe and I have my reasons for this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the last five, 10 years, what the men had to face in such situations, I think they have to be well prepared if they value their own lives. They need to be well-armed, well prepared so that if they tried all other means of dispersing them or making arrests, they may take some decisions or sometimes, some persons get hurt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut on a few occasions, they are forced to use weapons not only to save their lives but the lives of innocent citizens around the area. So, I don\u2019t think they are totally handling demonstrations very well, there is a lot of room for improvement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former IG argued that the personnel cannot manage protests without bearing weapons, adding that they needed to be well-armed for the safety of the citizens at the scene.<\/p>\n<p>In recent times, security agents including policemen have allegedly used lethal weapons on protesters including EndSARS demonstrators last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The German Government has offered to train men of the Nigeria Police Force in the management of protests without the use of lethal weapons.
