area is facing numerous challenges that are threatening to derail much of the progress it's made since that time. mass kidnappings attacks by armed groups and criminal gangs, corruption and the lack of jobs of anger, many widespread protest last year against an anti robbery police unit led to the killing of protested nigerians and calling on the government of mohammed to hurry to do more to ease they're suffering, but officials have responded by banning twitter that lead to more protests on saturday. so where does nigeria go from here? we'll put that key question to our guest shortly. first, this report from an address in lagos. i protest piece with demonstrated to pull democracy selves. there was heavy police presence. some officers even moving alongside the small crowd until the 1st cordon was breached. when the security forces loved rounds of 2
10:35 am
guys in the protest, as the crowd including dozens of john list, had to run to fight safety. but he's been fired gunshots into their banga comalla fe who participated in the post june 12 movement 28 years ago. the ideals they football have been discord by the political class. that's why they back on the street. now you know what to do to go then says, i don't know because of one of them. i don't i, we cannot to deducted 19 out of the vehicles in north of the june 12 when i was born after the announcement of an election in 1993. i believe the previous years history, the winner of that vote, was later arrested by the military and died in detention. what followed protests
10:36 am
and violence group been issued forth in the military to organize another transfer of power to civilians. 6 years later, that transition to civilian power is marked here every year as democracy de but so mike davis, who took part in last year, and the police brutality protested that turned violent at times, stayed away this year, saying st. protest like these can easily be hijacked by opportunities on the go. gunpowder and thin guys. come in. i'm just kid goes, i screwed up and i didn't want my to my country projects. i also reported in other cities including the capital, a boucher, why poor, an anti government protest is closed. i heard of the protest, security forces have been deployed in large numbers here in lagos and across nigeria. the purchase are coming at a time when i didn't fully titian's fulfilling terrain in widespread violence.
10:37 am
corruption, inflation and poverty worried about a repeat of the police brutality protest last year that resulted in widespread looting in arson. many businesses in lagos, remain closed on saturday. earlier in a nation wide broadcast about the day president mohammed bahati acknowledge existing challenges facing that, jerry. the assured the public, the nation's democracy will continue to evolve and decide challenges i meant. but millions of citizens burdened by inflation, economic stagnation and violence, say the change must happen. and now the reason i'll use ita lagos, nigeria, well civilian rule returned to nigeria in 1999, but it's still facing major challenges despite being africa. the largest economy, it does have high unemployment at more than 33 percent of adults minus a job. many blame it on widespread corruption. recession and last year's drop in oil prices on groups of killed more than 36000 people in the past 10 years.
10:38 am
displacing about 2400000 in the northeast and in central and north west nigeria, there's violence between farmers and ethnic for loni herders, as well as which lenses and criminal gangs. ah, okay, let's bring in our guests in a butcher. we have mike. edu for a former director of nigeria, state security service in washington dc. we have america, ankle, head of the africa practice that the racial group and from coventry in the u. k. a . u. mussa, a political analyst. welcome to you all, mike at your for coming to 1st. what hasn't or what has president hurry done since the last election that has got the country into such a mess? well i think process about my missing is i believe that's what
10:39 am
the protection of the students did show us the student needs to go to the doctor and they're in washington given that there are demonstrations in a boucher lake os port harcourt is clearly a good strong degree of coordination. is it your sense that this is beginning to look like an anti bu hurry movement? oh yeah, i mean it's clearly and he will hurry, movement or carol behind the protest, right? that's not new. we saw that during and after the end sized movements last october. so yes, i mean there certainly several elements of major in society,
10:40 am
better dissatisfied with the higher everything. hello mr. in coventry that cracked, and that america, and who is talking about, how was that handled in your opinion? i mean, arguably, it made the situation worse, not better. definitely. the abduction was still ongoing. the police and the security say they're making errors, but they haven't been very successful. why have they not being successful? it's because of the handling of the situation in the country, particularly the not having the kind of equipment they need to fight the situation. so the handling hasn't been too good. the government hasn't been too helpful in the sense that the government hasn't told us exactly where the problem is. let's not forget that the security chiefs where there for a long time. i mean, the previous security is not the one that just that the previous one led by the
10:41 am
army chief and others. they were there for a long time. there were cause to change them. the president did not change them for a long time and then seems just to get him out of hand walker, her arm couldn't be controlled, they went out of control. the band indeed went out of control the there were a lot of fun crisis in healthy ways. and so on, one to go to a point and backside the president had to do force practically to get these guys out of the we by that time was too late. so this brought is a 4 out of all of these problems. many of those that came out yesterday to put test where it was all means in the southeast and where there were a lot of i did call him for break all of this, not with them. they do think this is where saying the same thing. and so, and the,
10:42 am
sorry, part of the country that was right or the not the way they wanted to know. okay. even the way you've rate, you're raising a lot of issues there. and we'll try and unpack those in the time that we've got left. mike at you for there in a future. if you were still involved in your old job, working with the security services, would you perhaps advise the powers that be not to suspend twitter? because when a president or a prime minister in africa suspends twitter or benz or bar, social media even just for 12 hours, say that does 2 things. one it in flames and situation usually and to it kind of things are to stigma, love. oh, i'm not in charge and i'm feeling really threatened now that there will be sure that you do some shopping with the kid. so you
10:43 am
know, the government that was struggling with family and i believe the solution between the book and to anchor in washington should we understand why there is so much anger and the only place that people can get rid of that anger is on the streets. i mean on that idea of abductions, 800 children have been abducted since december of last year. and this is a big money making part of revenue for the people who are doing the abductions. we understand reportedly, since it started with the cheapest schoolgirl's a $120000000.00 us dollars has been paid to the people doing the kidnapping.
10:44 am
yes, so i wanna say couple of things, right. somebody answered this question and then just say quick thing about the question about twitter one on the thing, but it's often missing a conversation about insecurity is how structural it is in there. right? and also the role that they have to play when i say structural. so obviously you have, you have a very centralized police force, you know, and that comes in the constitution. you don't have, could have structural local intelligence gathering system which is essential to any sort of security system, right. and then you have a systematically underfunded an on the trained movies for so i mean, we have to recognize that the, these are problems that didn't today or yesterday with this administration. right. and it requires a fundamental rethinking of police and in one chair on the question about twitter. i agree, i think it was absolutely the wrong move for the government to make in, in restricted access to, to,
10:45 am
to twitter. i do think that one thing that has been lost in the conversation, and i just wrote a piece about this, is that twitter also made it, well, let me put it this way. one thing that had been lost in the conversation is that this incident raises very failure of what kind of duty of care social media companies have. his sovereign nation on dealing with issues of national security. right. i mean, also them on trade in the sense that it was the speech of a commander in chief threatening an armed rebel group that was deleted, right. without even consulting the government. and they also raises the question of a well, on the, like, i'm highlights the issue all work in the referee. right? so if you have a social media company is the record, we have political speech and you haven't, this is like this where certain groups of people organize to gain sympathy from the
10:46 am
referee. right? that is, become in, i would say, a permanent issue now in politics of today. so that's, i think something that we should all be thinking about beyond nigeria, right. what does this me political speech globally? i think my do a completely this in the way that they handle it. i'm a conversation about juicy, of care from social media platforms. we're talking about twitter here is a perfectly valid point to raise. the cost is protecting the context of what we're discussing is maybe for another program. it's maybe for another discussion inside story because all those social media platforms, all the apps, one has one phone. yeah, we should talk about those maybe at another time. audio melissa in coventry. unemployment is running at over 33 percent. 33.3 percent according to latest. that's as up to day. that's the 2nd highest national rate of unemployment. any place on the planet? what can they do to turn the economy around because their asset rich oil and gas,
10:47 am
but people are poor. people don't have jobs. what we know, what the problem was made. yeah, actually it's not because manager hasn't got some the potential to do well. the over the years oil has not been i wouldn't call it the kind of the right we saw us to rely on to do all of the one that has been more of a cost for us because we have complete people are relied on each meet the economy to be far more culture in the sense that we completely abandoned on what our forces funds in the country. and that is why everybody talks about that is why even the youths are always reliant government to keep them employed and so on. a lot of file use, talented, what i expect the government to be doing. and we've got got me inside of the point . what i don't know, how find the teaching back is to encourage people as much as possible to use the
10:48 am
talent to be creative, that creativity on inquiry, people to the, to want to kind of, to per nation. so that is the best way to create employment for young people. i know the government kim, which number of approaches. so as a chicken that it was initially on that the office of the vice president of in the ministry was. ready created to achieve that the ministry for humanitarian intervention on that the the municipal side. yeah. for that shoot. how don't a loss to be the problem of what an employment in nigeria. ok for the 1st. okay. now do you think we're getting quite close seen to the different personalities in the characters that have an impact on that particular issue. so i just want to move the conversation on a little bit, going back to mike edgy for an a boucher, isn't it the case that mr. hardy may be wants to be seen as a strong man, but he's actually quite
10:49 am
a weak president. he's not in control of any aspect. i might argue to you of the country at all. we've still got mass kidnappings going on. we still got regional troubles. we've still got an economy flat lining. we still got just as in april as of april this year. 1800 prisoners escaped from a maximum security prison very, very easily. he's not running the country well the i think the like you said, the region need to be read this call about to. ready be change, which is about to need to be if we draw some show that we get these
10:50 am
stroma, gotta be stroke this to show the doctor the like i said last let us look i do look to dish the dish down the come up. why the same solution for sure in washington coming back to you, is there almost a kind of a ritual istic, cyclical element to nigeria seems to me that whenever you get something that the president could tag or label has been quote, sedition in the regions because it's such a big country with massive rural areas that are not policed at all could because both of you had dent by that idea that the police force should be less centralized
10:51 am
. and this is happened under consecutive presidents. this happened with mr. over sancho and good luck, jonathan. there is the addition, they that those presidents tag the people behind what they perceive as sedition as being radicals or they tack them as being a danger to the state. that then leads to passivity and the risk goes away. but then it comes back again when we have the next president in the presidential palace . to my do so i am going to address that along with the question you asked. the other gentleman in our boucher which is like you said look, nigeria is the big country. right. and i think that when me, when we have these discussions about hiring not run into country, i think we need to be realistic about the fact that you cannot expect a federal government to secure all of my carrier. i mean, let me put it this way, right? but least then you can not expect
10:52 am
a one federal government from abu jack to police all of nigeria. it's not actually practical. right? and it doesn't happen anywhere else in the world. and so, and the other part of it too, is that there is never any discussion about the responsibility of local or sub national entities in assurance. security. you know, what i mean? right now, even under the current structure, it is the state's responsibility to prosecute most crime, most crimes of speech crimes on the federal crime. so assault, kidnapping, you know, all of these things, that's the crime. you don't get justice and security without justice. you don't get security without justice, right? but injustice is a part of the problem that is drive in the insecurity. because if somebody talk my fun and it's all my fun and nothing ever happens to them, right? which again, remember, is the responsibility to prosecute. yes, of course the federal police have to arrest that,
10:53 am
but we need to be talking about why aren't we see more prosecution at the state level? because until you prosecute those people, you will continue to have clashes. if somebody talk my front, nothing happens to them. the next thing i know i'm organizing people to go type them and you see that's like over and over again and just caution and like we say, you know, wasn't somebody in a blue jack is not doing x, y, z. what are all the other sub national supposed to be doing controls? so basically, what you're saying is that the difference between policing, self policing, and revenge, i guess, which is kind of understandable if there is no police force in the massive region that you and your family live in. audio, mr. there, in coventry. when mr. hurry says booker, her rom has been, and i, this is a direct quote, technically defeated. can i suggest to you? nobody understands what that really means because it's meaningless and nobody's buying it anyway. while the technical defeat would mean,
10:54 am
i don't think i personally believe of the time for them or you said book or heard have been technically defeated. he actually meant it. and i believe in the book or her, i'm have been significantly weekend now was live for the government was to move from that point of how we can in each to the 15 if it mean moving on from the military action to winning the mind of the people including the, the insurgents themselves because i don't believe book or conflict would be one in the battlefield. or the, i mean, every, i mean, every fortune has got its soft on the belly. you can not completely win war from ideology by using military force. one of my colleagues just mentioned on
10:55 am
my car, just mission the issue or from injustice. you cannot get peace without some justice . ok, i didn't happen in the past. the good value, i'm going to interrupt you that because we are heading towards the end of the program in a minute. amaco and who is there? another aspect to that, the situation in nigeria for those people who are protesting this a perfect storm, the global terrorism index, end of last year. it made the point to concluded in its latest report saying this that the b epicenter of islamic state iso had moved from syria and iraq to this a hell region. those 10 countries that go from west to east africa that are north of nigeria. isn't that a problem for any nigerian president because booker, her rom gets kind of sucked in to this into nice line conflict between those different groups. but basically want to take over the cell region and are in real time, as we speak day after day, week after week we reported on this channel all the time causing trouble in those
10:56 am
countries. but booker, her rom, has an axe to grind with those groups. and those groups have an ax to grind with book around. right. and is your question just asking if that's true? well, that kind of comes together with a weak presidency and it's the people of my jury that suffer. well, yes, i mean you right? absolutely salient point, right, which is insecurity and then type a hell and how and dr insecurity in northern minder and in the rest of the country . absolutely. and we also have to, to consider the facts and the role that the fall of libya pleads. right. and if you look at the records, if you look at the historical records, you can see a very clear path break from around 2011 after the full of libya is after the ration in all of the insecurity trends in this house. because you had, you know, cheap armed fluid in through already poll borders. right. and so i'd like to make you highlight the definitely abroad structural issue here is an issue of border
10:57 am
control board as an all of that is only kind of what was already of prototype ground with poverty and unemployment. and also some of the problems that you know, intersect, and to cause the level of insecurity with today. okay, we have to leave our discussion that for this episode, this edition of inside story. thank you so much to i guess they were mike h. u for uncle and elio mussa and thank you to for your company. you can see the show again anytime via the website out 0 dot com. and for more discussion, go to our facebook page. that's facebook dot com, forward slash ha inside story. you can also join the conversation on twitter handle as ever at ha insights stores for me, peter toby and the team here in doha. thanks for watching. we will be very soon for the moment. bye bye. i
