Election palava!
This are end time phenomenon, military men in uniform can elicit fears on anyone and propel easy access to the bank. This development is dangerous to both the banks and individuals. We have to tackle this method of robbery with vigor and tact. The police should do well to improve on its intelligence gathering mechanism. This type of thing does not speak well of a country trying to find its feet in the committee of Nations of the world
