Dear Editor,

I had recused myself from the recent discussions on the crime situational approach by the government to address what it called a “joint operation” but rescind to contribute to the discussions since I feel there is no real strategic plan for its implementation.

In my opinion the joint memorandum of agreement with the so called “stakeholders” is another way to circumvent the true ideals of a republic. A people or nation cannot be governed without laws, and laws are supreme to democracy. As the profit Moses aptly put it “if you cannot live by the law then you will die by it.”…..
