Just trying to picture a group of youths in America or UK , dragging a woman on the street and behead her for blasphemy. How will this happen and how will the president react?

Will the president address the nation that day or ignore it as one those things that normally happen.?



What is corruption ?

Is it that someone stole money and charged to court or that a citizen of a country is beheaded in broad day light and the president does not blink?

What gives youths in a particular region in this country courage to get up drag someone on the streets and behead them in broad day light?

I know jungle justice in general in Nigeria. Besides armed robbery and cultism which is general in Nigeria. I have never head of public execution of Nigerian in any other region .

What gives these youths the confidence?

Until the leadership of this nation places high value on human life by demonstration, every other effort in development is wasted.

Unfortunately, when the president uses violence and blood(dog and baboon soaked in blood) to express himself, what hope do the citizens have?

@op, the leaders of those counties you mentioned know what leadership entails, they know they are there to serve and protect the citizens, but our own leaders here do not even know who a leader is, not to talk of what leadership entails. They are just power hungry, they just want to be addressed as "His Excellency". They don't even care about those who they are leading.




And you asked what gave the perpetrators the confidence...................perhaps, you've forgotten that they know that their governor shares the same sentiments with them.


Abeg, I'm far from being a tribalist o, but honestly, living with Northerners is becoming scary. We don't have anything in common.

To your topic,
Yes, they can, in fact, they have.

The difference is how the government of USA followed up the issue unlike our "I don't care government".

To your post, no.

Nigeria is just like animal farm...........I can understand your emotional status now, but believe me, you're just ranting, nothing will be done to those perpetrators. You yourself have said it all, even the President encouraged violence and blood shedding when he lost elections.


God will help us.

The govt might claim to be winning the war against terrorism, but the beheading of this lady shows clearing that they are losing the battle.

You can win the war and loose the battle. We are fighting the symptoms and ignore the disease. We leave the ideology that produces terrorism and focus on the product.

Most of us in this country are educated illiterate cos we went to school but we can't differentiate and use our head to determine what is right or wrong but instead buy what politicians sells to us because that is what they know we want to hear at that moment. Is a rapist accused someone of a theft and we all rush to beat the person to pulp and keep watching the rapist then are we wise?

A few people as usual will be arrested in connection with her death. But was she beaten and butchered by 2 or 3 people?

It is not really the action of a person that matter but the motive. It's not the beheading that should be addressed but the motive behind it.

If u say an attack on BokoHaram is an attack on the north, What message are u sending to boko?

When u said if u loose an election, blood will flow, what message are you sending to those that killed innocent people when you lost the last time?

When u say that the herdsmen that kill Nigerians are Lybians, what message are you sending ?

A country where youths wake up and kill innocent citizens, bomb places ad even kill security agents, one day 800 of them wake up and say they have repented and recieve a welcomed and taken care of by govt.

This woman was brutalised and butchered in public. This action sent an encouraging message to the perpetrators and their followers. Why can't those who have been arrested be executed in public as well to send a discouraging message?

To let the whole country know what what awaits anyone that spills the blood of a fellow Nigerian for what ever reason.

And you wonder why there is no peace in the country? Why a group rises from one side to make the country ungovernable for the leader from another side?

It's turn by turn. When a southerner is in charge a group from the north makes the country ungovernable for him, the same is expected from the south when a northerner takes over.

Until a balanced is created and we agree on clear rules for our coexistence then we won't know peace in this nation.

Developed countries have invested alot in the minds of their citizens positively, so they spend less engaging them physically in violent situations.

They know a crimes is a crime, irespective of where you come from .

We invest much negatively in the minds of our people, today we spend billions fighting violence.

We support terror when we want power and commit billions to fight it when we get in.

Until we address this issues in the mind of the perpetrators of such evil acts then, we will continue to be reactive and spend billions to fight crime.

Even if all the soldiers and security agencies in Nigeria are deployed to secure the oil installations, as long as the people know in their mind that 80% of the oil blocks belong to people outside the region, they will be ready to attack at anytime.

If u secure the mind of the people, you will avoid confrontation.

You people and your inferiority complex. 'Angelic' America dropped atomic bombs on Japan, killing over 200,000 people in a matter of minutes. I guess that makes them angels. Oh...and people are murdered like flies in the US. At last count over 23,000 people are murdered there each year, with no presidential speech. But hey, that's no big deal since they were "not beheaded'', but shot. Afterall, it's really civilized to kill people by gunfire, so long as there's no head cutting. Awon olodo.

When you grow up, as well as grow a brain, you will understand that it is no more civilized to slaughter foreigners callously than it is to slaughter "your own" citizens. And that mass murder cannot be excused on the grounds that a nation did it to another nation, and not to its own citizens.

You're talking trash.

The OP's question was simple: Can a group of religious nuts (or any group at all) lynch and behead someone in the street of UK or US WHILE the prime minster/president says nothing?

Answer the question.

Or do you have problem with your brain?

Ignorant dunce, actually there were numerous public lynchings in America, where blacks were grabbed by christians, and ropes tossed around their heads before they were publicly hanged or set alight, and there were no presidential speeches. And even today there are numerous drive-by shootings in America where loads of innocent persons, including children, are killed in broad daylight, with no presidential speeches.
