Title: The disbandment of the community comfort patrols
Comments: Well.well well, It is now quite obvious that the government is beginning to feel the financial pinch by their announcement of the disbandment of the Community Comfort patrols. There could be no other reason fo this at a time when crime and general lawlessness is on the increase, and serving policemen jumping onto the criminal bandwagon. With the police manning level just about 7000 strong which is presently not enough to deal with our crime scenario the disappearance of these patrols is only going to increase the activities of more potential and hardened criminal here. The logic of this move will leave many citizens baffled since the government has really given no explanation for the sudden disbandment of this much -needed patrol to assist the police.
Whatever the patrols were for they weren't working and crime is still going up hence the disbandment in my opinion. What needs to change is the education system, the reckless mentality and culture of some people, and a police system put in place to check in households for child protection like the US. But even then, it's hard to even trust the police since even in the force there are corrupted ones.
