The Nation Newspaper reported tha about eight people were killed in a recent bomb explosion in Maiduguri yesterday. I ask, how do we stop these people? What do we say to pacify them? What else do the security operatives need to do, as it now looks obvious this matter is beyond them. Do we just stay and pity governor Kassim Shettima and people of Borno State?
After the Norway attack last week, the mayor of Oslo said, “I don’t think security can solve problems. We need to teach greater respect.”
He cannot be farther from the truth, and nothing emphasizes the solution in the north, in my opinion, than the mayor's idea. We need to teach greater respect. It is time these people started learning how to respect people's lives...enough said.
