Abduction;
a rewarding business. More work for Sheikh Gumi. New round of trading negotiation as govt starts to count ransom money to be collected for the bandits by the Cleric. At least, there will be hooray when the hostages are released.
The attacks on the Federal Airport Quaters Kaduna today and the kidnapping of scores of people is tragic and unfortunate.
The proximity of the scene of the crime to the Airport, security formations and the Defence Academy raises questions.
This terror is on the edges of the city.
It is becoming very questionable because this afternoon again one of the staff from NAMA was also abducted and NIMET as well.
Knowing the section of Kaduna where these things are taking place will alarm every Nigerian on the alarmed boldness of the perpetrators.
Has the Nigerian security system become so porous ,is this a pointer to a sabotaged system.Should this be happening in the country in this era of technology?
Is there any way we can adopt any technology to surmount the security challenge across the nation.
Where are the leaders.
I am sounding the way I am sounding because ,it will be foolish to think that we safe anywhere in the country again.It is now sounding like ” God we commit our lives into your hands because we have no human leaders again”.
With the way things are going in this country,I wouldn’t be surprised if such terrorrists carry out mass shooting in a mall or hotel any where in the country and not necessarily in the North.
Our Nothern brothers should stop playing politics with security and shielding criminal elements among them no matter their position in the society.
If we all can come together,North and South this challenge will become a thing of the past
The question is does this criminals, bandits or terrorrists whatever name you call them send letters to the security agents before their actions? Are there moles within the agencies because the area where these abduction took place is supposed to be the safest ,based on the military zone/ NDA.
It is so sad that it is happening within a supposedly security arena.
Is the central government the terrorrist themselves and the kidnappers are just mercenaries to carry out the job ?
I am saying this having watched and heard the bandits confess openly alegging that the government is their sponsor?
Logically having the NDA around and very close should have scared them from such attack? What is going on?
Have we so concentrated and centered our security arround the individuals or mostly elites and not even public places and leaving Nigerians very vulnerable?
This type of kidnapping casts aspersions on the integrity of the military considering the proximity.
Are we going to set up a committee as usual that will come up with a notebook of nothingness?
The usual tragedy of idle thinking by lazy thinkers that constitute present leaders?
This may be to remind the newly decorated service chiefs that the job of securing Nigeria is of gigantic proportion.
Now they have been decorated.
May it not come to the point where very soon the bandits will be hijacking moving plane.
I want to say that no country does well with security, when a certain ethnic group or section of the country deliberately undermines the institution,both in recruitment and standard and expect to be safe.
This matter cannot can never be wished away.
While “Rome burns our emperors and maximum rulers are busy taking anti- death vaccines to the admiration of sycophantic aides ,who are harrasing people who do not know what to believe or what not to believe in this government.
