FRANKLY SPEAKING: WHAT IS THE FORCE BEHIND THE FORCEsteemCreated with Sketch.

What is the force behind the force

What is the meaning of the word force and how is it applicable in this context. According to the English dictionary:

(countable) Anything that is able to make a big change in a person or thing.

(countable) A group that aims to attack, control, or constrain.

The force I shall be discussing here is the one that relates to the security of a nation. I learnt as part of their criteria while venturing into the system the individuals are meant to take some oath and undertaking, which makes them obedient like a dove.

The world has never been equal, the poor and the needy has lived at the mercy of the aristocrat and elites for too long. What is really purging my mind is the bound attached to the oath they took that made the so-called force personnel entrust their loyalty to the authority than their own will and natural conscience. I read through a lot of history books and I have never found a single scenario where the real persons involve in a disagreement die for their own course, what I do see are innocent soldiers who fought and lose their lives without being provoked.

I watch most times on Television soldier and police men pointing gun at innocent citizens like they are not one of them. The force guys were picked from the citizen, why and how come they become a shield to the leaders and a viper to the helpless people. They take delight in protecting the elites and leave the weak and feeble at their mercy. I have never seen a callous leader who fought his course, they manipulate the forces to their own tune and torment their rivals. During the civil war era in Nigeria in the 1970's lot of lives were lost but the real war lords were hale and hearty and even became friends later.

What is the force they used in manipulate the cognitive of this individuals, is it money or coercion? down here in Africa they make the profession look attractive so much that you pay to join them and most of these foes after joining the force sees themselves as an intimidating figures, being a police man here is more of a threat than than being a barrister, you should not just argue with a armed police man, he might gun you down.

When I see things like this, I come to a conclusion that the poor, the average men and the feeble are the enemy of themselves. An elite will and can never employ a fellow elite as a security guard, gate keeper or driver, they only use the poor to fight themselves and give them a topic to hold on to. Since things has been programmed to run like this, who is the messiah that will rescue the poor who are not helping themselves, the situation is really appalling, I shed tears most times whenever I evaluate the lacuna in the world we live in and the class imbalance.

Interesting piece .

Thanks for taking your time to read through.

That is rough to read. Violence has become too violent today and makes for an even scarier world than it used to be. Not saying it wasn't scary back then. It breaks my heart to read this.

I can't fathom why some human seek solace in evil. The world seem like it not a home.
