Must We Fight? by iamuye(m): 8:35pm On Jul 13, 2018
Hello guys, I'm not a writer or blogger so pardon me if any error(s), I'll be brief.

It was just about 5pm yesterday when I started hearing noises and the blasting sound from gun shots. I had to leave the movie I was watching to find out what's/who's causing chaos in the neighborhood.

Having asked a few questions, I learnt that some area boys are having a great time(fighting), using all kinds of deadly weapons to exchange pleasantries for reason(s) that can not be successfully pointed out and the police force could be seen at every corner doing their usual raid, arresting innocent youths in the process but the conflict still some how managed to continue.


Again this evening, I was woken up from sleep by series loud sound from gun shots but this time, I learnt it's from the FSARs operatives and we all know these guys don't value human lives, once you are caught in such circumstances, one can instantly be shot to death.

I'm a kind of guy that avoids getting involved in any form of physical combat or conflict. I love my life so much I don't wanna die. Then I thought to myself, what will happen to these area boys, the gun shots I've been hearing probably would have killed some of them or they by themselves would have butchered their rivalry gang and they will die just like that (iku saara ) no achievement, no nothing.

What were they fighting for? is it worth dying for? Questions I asked myself, which brings me to the ultimate question, "Must We Fight?"

What other measures can we take to resolve conflict without having to fight to death.

As much as I don't want to die (iku saara), I equally don't want the lives of other youths to be wasted just like that.

If you are reading this, I'd like for you to write at least one factor that can cause conflict, misconduct, misunderstanding etc and how to resolve them without having to fight and shed blood in the process. A bid to have a much safer environment for us all to live in.
