Our Plans to help curtail Crimes in Nigeria – G-CASI.
A Group, Global Community and Grassroots Support Initiative (G-CASI) has expressed strong optimism that very soon, various kinds of crime and criminal activities would be a thing of the past in Nigeria.
Retired Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of Police and President-General of the group, Michael Zuokumor who stated this weekend, at the inauguration of G-CASI in Abuja, said by the time the Non-Governmental Organization would finishes its skill empowerment, training and equipping programme of Nigerian youths, there would be no premise for criminal activities in the country.
He noted that as one time law enforcer, he could say categorically that until some measures are put in place for the empowerment of Nigerian youths, there would be no peace in the land.
Disclosing that membership cuts across all the states of the federation, Zuokumor said, “In the long run every member of G-CASI will enjoy direct empowerment. You are empowered when carbon emission that causes cancer and other diseases are reduced to tolerable level thereby saving mankind from the dangers of global warming. You are empowered when you acquire skill acquisition centers to fend for yourselves.
“You are empowered when G-CASI through our agricultural scheme makes food in abundance in our society and your farm produce earn you foreign exchange thereby reducing dollar superiority over the naira because the more food we have the less cry for resource control, Egbesu boys, Bakassi boys, MASSOB, Boko Haram, IPOB, OPC and other forms of agitations.
“You are empowered when you acquire knowledge and enjoy up to date modern medical facilities and diagnostic centers that will save you from being butchered and sometimes killed for minor ailments such as appendicitis or suffer amputation as a result of diabetes.
“G-CASI will bring all these evil practices to an end through our health for all programs which include adopting the modern ways of treating some of these ailments by way of food supplements that restores diabetic patients to full health at affordable prizes.
“You are empowered when we save the country about 20 to 30 billion dollars annually from the importation of various types of resins (polymers, polyethylene, polystyrene and polypropylene) and all foreign plastics products in Nigeria. When we manufacture them in Nigeria (petrochemicals), this will save money, reduce inflation and stabilize the naira.
“Plastics after use create environmental problem. G-CASI believes in the use of the 3Rs, Reduce, Recycle and Re-use. G-CSAI is a friend of the environment.”
Going down memory lane, the retired DIG said the like minded Nigerians and friends from abroad came together to agree that there must be a change and that it is this desire to make a difference that has given birth to G-CASI.
“G-CASI being an NGO is not political in the sense that it is not linked to any known political association. It is not religious, neither is it sectional. Membership cuts across religion, states and tribes and it is open to people of goodwill and exemplary character and who are socially responsible.
He assured that the leadership and members of the organization will work assiduously with the fear of God to ensure its success and existence.
