Beyond the face value, it really portends serious dangers for our democracy that a state Commissioner of Police should have the temerity to call a world press conference to insult and abuse the elected governor and chief security officer of the state he is serving? Are we not condoning indiscipline in this country just because some people have utter dislike for Amaechi and some other governors? In police parlance, is this not mutiny that requires the officer to “advice himself.” Today it is Amaechi, a perceived political enemy of the sitting President, however, the danger is that tomorrow, the Inspector General of Police may publicly insult and abuse the President (it may not be Jonathan) and equally decide to pull at cross purposes on national security matters. And from there we may get to a situation one day that the Police would stage a coup to topple government. Me I dey laaf oooooo! IFEANYI IZEZE
