Na wa oooooo. last week Kastina, yesterday Borno, Today kastina again. I sometimes feel these Northerners don't want this killings to come to an end cos I know if something like this should happen in the south ( God forbid it) they would have taken some drastic action even without the help of Government.

The other day their youths were burning posters of their man.

Today if they see their man, they might physically burn him.
