In recent times, no week passes by in the world’s most populous black nation without kidnapping not on the news headlines ???

This trend has escalated exponentially in the last 6 years with thousands murdered, many beheaded, raped or had their limbs severed from their bodies.

Nigeria should be a role model nation for the black and developing world, with all our international feats and distinguished career professionals spanning over a hundred years.

We certainly cannot have a country where bandits are pampered, emboldened and compared to genuine freedom fighters who are never really involved in unimaginable murders of its citizens or rape of innocent women. Apart from the criminal elements, freedom fighters are their to be listened to, and not kidnap not for ransom.

The flip flopping by political leaders is quite unfair to the citizens who expect answers & solutions to ensure they can simply earn a living without being executed for no just cause, and their children can get an education without being snatched by the real bogeyman.

President Buhari’s government supposedly should be under a lot of pressure to uphold the constitution, and promise he gave Nigerians in 2015 & 2019.

Enough of the dilly dally, enough of the politics. Our leaders are not only ridiculing themselves, but scaring away ‘Foreign Direct Investment’, and as a result, tens of millions of jobs.

Government strategists should continuously carry out cost benefit analysis to understand the opportunity cost of their actions or inactions.

In the last day or so, the revered APC chairman, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, offered the nation some good solutions on handling this crisis. We hope the “Presidency” listens to wise council.
