Buster:
You said it all in a few words!
Dr Ojo and his ilk act tough only with
ordinary Nigerians; they dive for cover
when ever they are confronted even with just
the shadows of terrorists like the Boko
Haram.
Let Dr Ojo visit Borno state and start
referring to the Boko Wackos as 'African monkeys'
and we'll see if he survives the encounter even for a minute.
The Boko Haramists are a threat to Nigerian Unity and Prosperity
and Security of her citizens nationwide!
The most effective treatment for a gangrenous or cancerous limb
which is resistant to all other forms of treatment is amputation
or else the gangrene consumes the rest of the body.

Ola

Ola, I could not agree with you more. The fact that a set of hoodlums can hold 160 million persons, who also happen to claim the title of the most populous nation in Africa is a shame in the first order. It is even more so that the Nigerian government is so yellow-bellied that it negotiates with terrorists, the poignancy of the fact being that GEJ's government if you can call it that is a farce. The concept of Blackmail is that it perpetuates itself and if, mark my words, if Boko " Harem's " tenure ever ends, another terror could promptly take its place, for the fact that there is a higher than normal probability that they will get whatever then want by sheer brute force. Lyndon Baines Johnson was an accidental President, just as Nigeria's current one [their bosses died and they took over], but Johson had an agenda and most of the policies in the US including Medicare, Medicaid, Head Start and the Civil Rights Act of 1964 all stand as a beacon of light of his achievement till date. Johnson's undoing was his preoccupation with Vietnam. On the other hand, the Nigerian accidental President? What President? So, the axiom that we deserve the government we have could not have been more apt. Nigerians, especially those in advisory positions and even those who suffer under it [give them a cup of rice and they will all sing the praises even of those who ravaged them] present as some of the most sycophantic or all lackeys, and unashamedly so. And to think that this charade is orchestrated to continue after 2015? Ola, I pray thee, say it is not so.

JUI:
I share your sentiments and frustrations--some Nigerians can indeed be emotional wretches
as you referred to them.
When dog bites man no one complains but when man bites dog some start yelling massacre.
Are the lives of the Boko Haram terrorists worth more than those of their victims?.
How many innocent police officers and soldiers have been killed by the Boko Haram terrorists
in the past few years--without all the hue and cry from the holier than thou crowd?
How many hundreds of civilians have lost their lives and limbs at the hands of the
Boko Haram terrorists
The Boko Haram terrorists are like a cancerous sore in the nation. Serious ailments
need serious solutions!
As long as the federal authorities are taking the necessary care to avoid collateral civilian casualties
the government forces should be using whatever arsenals they have in their possession to eradicate
these miscreants.
Capturing the terrorists alive so they could be tried remains an option only in situations where the
federal forces would not risk their lives to ensure their capture.
Why are some people crying on behalf of terrorists--when they would rather die so they
could get their 72 virgins in heaven?
Why are some Nigerians playing politics with this serious matter?

Ola

Nigerians are just emotional wretches, a confused bunch of people who like to eat their cake and still hold it in their hands! Let them go see how laws are enforced around the world and they will realized that the baby gloves with which the Govt and people are handling Boko Haram is mainly responsible for why the situation is till not under control.
A bunch of mindless, rag-tag religionists cannot hold a nation to ransom and render citizens' live in a standstill; NO WAY!!! Take care. JUI

-- BAGA MASSACRE: CISLAC CONDEMNS MILITARY BRUTALITY ON INNOCENT CIVILIANS Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) is worried about the continued violent violation of human rights by the security agencies on innocent Nigerians. The failure of this government to sincerely handle the insecurity and protect Nigerians from violence orchestrated by merchants of violence through Bombings, Armed robbery, kidnapping, communal clashes, political violence, ethno-religious violence and rape, helps to escalate impunity in Nigeria. This is in spite of the huge resources allocated for security sector in Nigeria which runs into trillions of naira, but yet Nigerians face more security challenges. The recent development of mass massacre in Baga Town of Borno State is very unfortunate and in particular the alleged blocking access of relief materials to the affected victims days after the mayhem is inhumane and amount to siege. Relief workers are yet to be allowed access to Baga town days after the start of the military operations that left at least 200 people dead and so many homes burnt down. The residents said troops fired indiscriminately and set fires at homes in an apparent retaliation over the death of an officer. CISLAC is of the opinion that there should be a better mutual understanding of cultures and systems between humanitarian aid workers and troops, so as to develop mutual respect. To do this, it would be useful to put in place a programme of strategic and operational discussions at all levels. National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and Red Cross have raised alarm over its inability to administer humanitarian response to victims which is a total contradiction to the United Nation Protocol on options for responding to such crises. Even in war situations, relief materials are distributed to alleviate the sufferings of the people. It is considered very unprofessional not to accept the opportunity to play a more dynamic role on how to coordinate and respond to emergencies which was created by it (the Army) in the first place. CISLAC considers this a coercive military intervention, even though a military component of some kind has become increasingly necessary in most crises situation; it must not eclipse and violate rights of civilians. Major humanitarian actors from both within and outside Borno, and its aim at facilitating inter-agency analysis and decision making in response to humanitarian emergencies should not be an issue for negotiation considering that access to food is part of civilian protection. It must be understood that continuous refusal to provide access humanitarian officials to the victims would further create an outbreak of diseases, hunger and deaths of women and children. We consider this siege an impunity which is unacceptable and a contradiction to the rules of engagement in such situation. We condemn this and call for investigation into the Baga saga. CISLAC calls on relevant authorities to refrain from the current faceoff in Baga, not as an argument about the 'right to intervene' but about the 'responsibility to protect' and put in place a proper coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in the community to safeguard the lives of people. CISLAC calls on the authorities to investigate these Army and Police officers involved in this heinous act and ensure that they are not allowed participating in any peacekeeping operations forthwith. These sorts of violations are parts of the image challenges that the nation had suffered over the years from the international community when some Nigerian Army officers were sent for international peace mission. CISLAC therefore calls on the National Assembly to investigate the trillions of Naira allocated to the executives in the name of security votes, from all indications, insecurity is proving to be a lucrative business which financial appropriation is unaccounted for. This menace has gone on too long and needs to seriously be challenged.
