FullBlastLight: Yes but how can you be a fugitive if you haven't been suspected, arrested or convicted? Fugitive literally means someone on the run from the law, bandits in the Nigerian context is synonymous with Fulani Herdsmen. This is where advanced English classes becomes helpful, there's one thing to see it in a dictionary and another thing to actually apply it using the proper context. |

abbey621: Whichever context u apply it, any lawless retaliatory attack launched anywhere is stil criminal & thus punishable under law in any jurisprudence! There's no right way 2 do a wrong thing nah!

FullBlastLight: Yes you're right but you don't call someone that drove while intoxicated a bandit....We can't just sweep all criminal behavior under one single term. |
