Benue Massacre: Governor Wike's Donation, Right Or Wrong? by Ebiezprada(m): 1:03pm On Feb 09, 2018
It is now a very popular news that H.E. Wike donated a huge sum of 200million Naira to Benue State as a way of offering support to the people who need all the support they can get. This fit has been applauded by many and also condemned by many with most of the critics hauling insults at Wike and His Government in the process.

We have freedom of expression and we are also entitled to our various opinions on any matter that arises. A closer look at reasons for these criticisms and you'll see complaints like: Rivers State has its problems, Wike runs to far away Benue State to donate money, also that the man Wike is just playing politics.

Let us go back in history of the Bible where Jesus turned water into wine in a wedding. It is recorded that the wine turned out to be the best. Jesus Christ had a Mom and an earthly family. He would have kept turning water into the best wines obtainable then so His Mom could sell and get excessively rich but did He? He had the power to turn things around but, His family was not even the wealthiest then. This goes to show that everything cannot always be perfect.

I used the above instance because most people condemning the act are Rivers State APC members who are also mostly Christians. Rivers State has its own problems which is true, but do you have to solve all your own problems before reaching out to others? How then do they shout "One Nigeria" and still go ahead to condemn a wonderful act that will strengthen the idea of one Nigeria. This is pure hypocrisy.

They also claimed the Man Wike is playing politics with the whole issue so I ask: why is the FG not also playing politics by arresting the situation quickly through the security agencies, provide relief materials, introduce rehabilitation and resettle displaced people? The FG has abandoned Benue people when they need all the help they can get and that is the sad reality.

God bless H. E. Wike,
God bless Rivers State,
God bless Nigeria.

The people affected have been taken care of and the situation is under control.
Besides, who's he supposed to donate money to in this case when it is still the government that will be in charge?
Use your head.
