Dear UN, this act of terrorism is in all parts of Nigeria right now. It's either in form of banditry, kidnappings, killer herdsmen, etc. When we complain, some spokespersons from the FG will tell us that Nigeria is in perfect hands and those who are complaining are in the minority. We have moved on from expecting anything better from our government, but Covid 19 is picking them up one at a time

When an enemy is from within its so hard to deal with such enemy
