Police Kills Two NSCDC Officers, Releases Vandals

In what could be described as a commando attack, The Nigeria Police ambushed and opened fire on men of the anti-vandal squad of the Lagos State Command of NSCDC, killing two men on the spot while others escaped with gunshot wounds in Ikorodu axis of Lagos State.

This incident occurs at about 3am on Wednesday morning while the officers and men of the corps were returning from a successful anti-vandal operation where vandals were arrested along with their exhibits and being transported back to the state headquarters of the Corps. According to an eye witness account, the vandals made calls to their police collaborators for support as they could not overwhelm the anti-vandals team of the Corps.

Immediately the Police got wind of the information laid siege for the Corps and open fire on the NSCDC patrol vehicles killing two while others scampered for their dear lives with gunshot wounds as the vandals were released immediately by the police.

On seeing that it was the police, the men of the corps refused to fire a single shot from their rifles but could only express sock at a sister agency who ordinarily should assist in fighting crime and other criminality are the ones aiding them while the vandals continue to flourish in crime.

POOR WAEC R‎ESULT: MANY SAW IT COMING

After many years of witnessing a downward trend in student performance, the West African Examination Certificate (WAEC) results have hit an all time low as 70% Of Candidates failed in the May/June edition this year. Many saw it coming considering the dwindling allocation of resources to education in the country and the lack of quality teachers but the most important contributing factor has been the lackadaisical attitude of the students.

It's not been so long since our time in Secondary School but there's been a massive drastic drop in the quest for knowledge. During our time, we wanted to be good, studied for long hours and even overnight and competed against ourselves. Education was an active, big part and source of happiness in our lives but nowadays, take study out of a students life and he/she be happy. They like it easy and fun.

Success doesn't just fall from heaven like our pastors want us to believe, it's a result of hard work and proper preparation because you can't give what you don't have. Success is deliberate and so is failure. "There is no better future than through pen and paper", were my grandmothers last words to me. For a woman who never saw the four walls of formal education and that I never saw her alive after hearing those meant I had heard from God himself and never took my books for granted. Even the bible says "study to show thyself approved..." but what do we see these days? Students are no more studying, they don't. They are not driven or motivated by academic success anymore. Words such as Hard work, determination, perseverance, goals and all that are constantly losing value.
