NATFORCE: A Man, His Plan & Mission For Insecurity, Youth Unemployment

by

Baba Mohammed speaks like most well-read people from northern Nigerian. Once you meet them, you know them at a glance: A confident mien, almost always in their traditional flowing gown and a matching cap with a depression to the right or left and the direct gaze of someone who knows his onions.

Up close, like for instance in this interview THEWILL had with him late Wednesday afternoon on July 14, 2021 in the cozy and cat-quiet ambience in the sitting room of Hajia Fatima Mohammed Goni of PMB’s campaign fame and grassroots politician, we were drawn in by Mohammed’s articulation as he explained his plans and mission.

He is stocky, a little more than five feet in socks with the confidence of a professor in any institution of higher learning anywhere in Nigeria. If he wanted, he would have found a place as a teacher in any institution of choice in the country. For one, he has an intimidating array of degrees, in accounting from the University of Jos, Financial Management from Stanford School of Business, Business Administration from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.

He has had high profile spells in government, in private and public concerns, certificate of corporate governance from NSE, Special Assistant at BPE, SA still for Nasir-el Rufai, served on the board of Afribank, Nigerian Security and Minting Corporation, in the same capacity at Mobile Telecommunications, NICON, Aladja Steel Complex, Sheraton Hotels, Transcorp, Acting Director, Ministry of Mines and Steel. His international resume include working as a member of the Canadian/ Nigerian Bilateral Relations.
