I recorded this on a bike somewhere in Ondo State yesterday, and it really gave me an insight into why crimes like kidnapping can thrive in certain areas.
As far as the eyes could see, there were vast stretches of land with little or no human presence.
It made me realize just how much of Nigeria remains largely unoccupied compared to the areas where people are concentrated.
At the same time, Lagos is bursting at the seams with people, traffic, and development, while many other states have huge expanses of land and relatively small populations.
It got me thinking: is part of our security challenge linked to how unevenly our population and development are distributed?
With so much land lying idle across the country, what can the government realistically do to make these areas safer, more productive, and more attractive for people and businesses?
I'd genuinely love to hear your thoughts
Meanwhile, the bike trip took 20 km of riding for ₦5,000 as there was no public vehicle going that way.

PETER OBI THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE OF THE NDC HAS NOTHING TO OFFER NIGERIANS
Over the last 24 hours, I watched an podcast conducted by Rufai Oseni of Arise Television featuring Mr. Peter Obi, who is being projected by many as a leading opposition figure ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
As a young progressive politician, a conflict resolution expert, an advocate for peace and good governance, and National Publicity Secretary of the Grassroots Mobilization Network, I listened carefully, not with prejudice, but with the intention of hearing practical alternatives to some of the critical challenges confronting our nation.
What struck me most was that on several key issues security, infrastructure, power supply, economic recovery, and governance the interviewer repeatedly sought to know what Mr. Obi would do differently if entrusted with the leadership of Nigeria. Yet, rather than providing specific policy alternatives, measurable targets, or concrete strategies, the responses appeared largely centered on criticism of the current administration And kept saying I will not tell you Rufa’i.
On the issue of security, Nigerians have not forgotten some of the serious security challenges that occurred during Mr. Obi’s tenure as Governor of Anambra State. Many still remember the tragic incident involving the kidnapping of the late Hon. Okwudili “Akwuzu” Umenyiora on July 19, 2013, and his subsequent killing on July 21, 2013. The incident was widely reported at the time by national newspapers, including Daily Sun, which published reports on the abduction and death. There were also other violent crimes that claimed the lives of young Anambrarians. In addition, incidents of daylight robberies and kidnappings in Onitsha and surrounding communities raised concerns about public safety at the time. The Akwuzu SARS controversy also remains a subject of public discussion, with allegations that the unit was involved in serious human rights abuses, including claims that the bodies of young men who died in custody were dumped in the Ezu River. These events remain part of public discourse and deserve reflection whenever leadership and security credentials are being discussed.
In my view, this raises serious concerns about his preparedness to lead the country. Nigerians deserve leaders who can clearly articulate solutions to the nation’s problems, not just identify shortcomings in the efforts of others.
In a democracy, criticism is legitimate and necessary. However, those seeking to govern must offer more than criticism; they must offer solutions.
Leadership is ultimately about choices, policies, and accountability. When you ask Nigerians to entrust you with the leadership of over 200 million people, it is not enough to say what is wrong. You must also tell the people what you would do differently, how you would do it, and within what timeframe.
That is the essence of accountability.
How can citizens hold leaders accountable if those leaders refuse to clearly articulate their plans and policy alternatives?
This is where I believe President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has distinguished himself. Whether one agrees with every policy or not, this administration has demonstrated a willingness to make difficult decisions and take responsibility for them.
Today, we are witnessing unprecedented investments in infrastructure, including major road projects, transportation networks, educational reforms, agricultural interventions, and renewed efforts to strengthen national security.
The Renewed Hope Agenda is not merely a campaign slogan; it is a governance framework that is already being implemented across multiple sectors of our national life.
No government is perfect, and challenges remain. However, leadership should be judged not only by the challenges it inherited but also by the courage it demonstrates in confronting them.

Rufai: Security, If you were the Commander in Chief, what would you do about our kid being in the bush, and how would you do it?
Peter Obi: I will not tell you.
Rufai: Why? But Nigerians need to know.
Peter Obi: Nigerians are not asking that. It's people who don't know what to do. Commitment, I fought criminality in Anambra State. You must show commitment.
