Gone Untimely by Raybiwhite: 7:50am On Nov 19, 2014
Forty nine innocent little boys were butchered by Boko Haram in their schools on 10th November 2014 as they resumed class in Yobe state.
The question must be asked: is there any limit to the depravity of these monsters and those that secretly support and encourage them? I may not know much but one thing that I know is this: the spilling of innocent blood has terrible consequences for both the land on which it is spilt and for those that spill it. I am talking about long-term generational consequences. This is the more so when that blood is the blood of children.
Our girls are kidnapped from their schools, abducted, raped, married off and sold into slavery and we call ourselves blessed. Our little boys are bombed to smithereens in their schools, their young lives are snuffed out, there is no sense of outrage and no-one is brought to book yet we call ourselves blessed. Our level of sensitivity has been seared to a point that we don’t care anymore and we are no longer moved when we hear about the horrors being inflicted on our people, yet we call ourselves blessed. When will we appreciate the fact that there is something fundamentally wrong with us?
I had every reason to feel so sad on the day that the news from Yobe came but my initial sadness was quickly overwhelmed by a deep and burning rage. I was (and still am) enraged by this latest act of pure evil and I condemn it in the strongest terms.

Have ur say!!
