Nigeria is a terror because she has being caught by the naked eyes of the world in the scene of violence approach against her citizens.
However, I have been dying to see the date when APC-led administration under the watch of PMB or PDP past administration can combat the absolute state of insecurity in Nigeria through the use of specific theory of security rather than through the adoption of generic theory of security or by sticking to functionalist approach instead of marxist approach.
Because it has become a tradition of the PDP and the APC to remain adamant to unsuitable theories while responding to civil and non-civil issues like protests by the citizens of Nigeria, riots by those who feels dissatisfied, reaction by those who fells frustrated or resistance by those who feels disappointed by the system.
Stated below are some of the techniques that the Nigerian state are constantly using to deal with the circumstances especially when there is a reaction from the part of the citizens.

1. State terrorism.
2. Crime of aggression.
3. Militaristic power.
4.Violence oriented approach.
5. Functionalistic approach through reinforcement.
6. Crime against liberty of Nigerian citizens.
Unfortunately, both the PDP and APC have firmly believed that they can solve the problems of Nigeria through violent oriented approach which is criminologically and securitically impossible. But we are waiting to see how this can be possible. Because once if there is a “reaction” from the side of the citizens of Nigeria or “aggression” by the frustrated people of Nigeria.
The next thing that you can see is the violence oriented approach by the Nigerian state against the citizens of our country either through one of the items above or interchangeably or the application of all the same time.
Finally, “the so-called Nigerian state and those in support of what the so-called Nigerian state is doing should note that the application of the items of above can never solve the problems of out country. The need for non-violent approach is desirable especially from the side of the Nigerian state”.
