hary let me ask you this. these vehicles these paddy wagons which we've seen that gray was placed in should those be all traded out? i mean should the police forces transition to other vehicles where this is not even a consideration or a possibility? >> well i'll tell you, i don't like those vehicles you can't control your prisoner there, you saw the tight confined space inside those vehicles you get one or two people in there. you're wide open for an attack from your prisoner. so unlike in nypd we use vans we didn't have those when i was a police officer and i don't think they have them now because i've never seen them. the fact if you just put a prisoner in the back seat of a radio car or in a regular van facing forward, buckled in it's a lot safer. even when somebody is in the back of one of these vehicles and they're seat belted, they can still move around like this and bang their head and hit their head, they're still subl subject to being some kind of injury. so i don't think they're really that safe. >>

given what nigeria is facing, i think it absolutely needs somebody like forchlerformer general bor hari, putting an end to the boko haram insurgency talking about eliminating this very high level of corruption in institutions and if it means giving nigerians a chance to have electric power. these are very, very critical situations and you can't just deal with them in just incremental ways. there are certain aspects of the political economy that have to be dealt with in a drastic way. and the in-coming government i believe not only bohari but also his parties especially from the southwest where there is a lot of experience, he has a good vice president coming in with him and i think that their team should be able to take on these issues. so i think nigerians have rose up in concern over this fuel crisis but it should put them in a good position. to say that enough is enough. >> thanks very much for younting some of the challenges in nigeria, richard joseph, professor of political science at northwestern university. >>> now it's been one month since a 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit nepal. a
