My Smartphone Found 277 Firearms In The Senate – Jimoh Ibrahim

Sen. Jimoh Ibrahim of the Ondo South Senatorial District recently revealed that, with the aid of certain installations on his phone, he was able to detect over 277 guns around the Senate chamber.

The senator was speaking in plenary on Wednesday about ways to combat insecurity and was responding to a motion brought up by Senator Ali Ndume of Borno South regarding the recent bombings in the North-East state.

Ibrahim urged stakeholders to take action and emphasized the importance of technology in the fight against insecurity.

He said; “I don’t want to take much of your time but I will say clearly it costs nothing for the intelligent army to get devices in their phone to know where these notorious criminals live.

“As I am here, I check my phone regularly and I know the number of guns that are very close to me here. This is just less than one thousand installations. Within us now, there are over 277 guns around here just because an armoury is close to this place.”

Senate President Godswill Akpabio asked him; “Of the 277 guns around you here, do you know how many of them have bullets inside?” Jimoh Ibrahim said since there is an amour close to the National Assembly, the senators were safe.

In response, Jimoh said; “So, what I am saying? We can use technology, just like distinguished Senator Ndume had said, to deploy technology rather than using soldiers.

“I want to say very clearly that the military should stop using unconventional strategies to fight insurgency in Nigeria. There is a distinction between unconventional and conventional strategy. We need to use conventional strategy to fight unconventional war. Boko Haram is an unconventional war”.

Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy

Today's Quote

“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
