This has nothing to do with Tinubu. We Nigerians are just evil and wicked. Before Tinubu entered office, weren't there killings.

The attacks in Benue State is not just tragic — it's a wake-up call. We can't keep watching lives being wasted and people abducted without decisive action from the government. The government of Benue State needs to start thinking differently about the state's security.

One practical solution is to form a joint vigilante system, working hand-in-hand with the police. This kind of local security structure has worked in the North, where community vigilantes help track and root out criminals hiding in forests and rural areas. They can adopt a similar model — people who know the terrain, who can move quickly, and who have the trust of the communities.

ZombieTAMER:
Governments number duty is to secure lives and properties

Buhari failed as a president

Tinubu is following his footsteps of failure

The power hungry old dunce is in French hospital, dollar is now 1600 naira

JASONjnr:
Benue is going down.... the killing in the North Central is alarming.......


We pray for peace in this country.

Christianity didn’t say you shouldn’t kill, it says you shouldn’t murder, and that is when you kill someone out of contempt not due to self defense or protecting someone else life. Its love thy neighbor as you love thyself. At worst, try to ensure you and your neighbors leave peacefully. If neighbors comes for your neck you can as well protect yourself by going for his neck first.

Ok so let me address everything you said.
Tinubu can be a good or bad man which most likely i believe he is just like a lot of politicians however we the citizens provide the politicians with power to do such. The bribe and hiring of thugs wont be possible if the civilians refused.
He is the president and is in charge of protecting the masses however just like being the CEO of a company, you cant control everything. Others have to take the action to assist as well. We Nigerians are just too wicked. An Asian man told a Nigerian to shoot another Nigerian and he did just that. No heart or feeling for his fellow Nigerian. The same thing with kidnappers, cultists, armed robbers, organ harvesters and skull miners. This is not a Tinubu thing but a Nigerian problem. It is civilians doing these things. We lack proper law enforcing gadgets and surveillance systems to monitor every part of the country since we are a developing nation. The police officers that get drunk, take hard drugs or extort is a Nigerian problem not Tinubu. He is not a magician that will end everything in four years.
Now are there bad politicians in his circle? of course they are.
Does the government lie? of course they do just like everywhere in the world.
Do I feel sympathy for the family of these victims? of course, i do however we need to focus on the roots which is that Nigerians need to change.
Every president travel for different reasons. If he plans to build ties with France then that is what the government wants. Do i like France? not really but that doesn't mean there aren't opportunities to harvest from them. If the government sees opportunities in dealing with France then why not.
He said Shettima will handle security, then that means he wants to divert the responsibility to lighten the load.
Before APC came to power, PDP couldn't stop the bomb blasts that killed a lot of people. In fact that is part of the reason people voted for Buhari. Buhari experienced his own killings in his tenure and now Tinubu is experiencing too. my point is that it didn't start now. Rather we should do something about our behavior not pointing finger.
Tinubu and co said things during Jonathan period so what. its politics. politicians will do anything to win. Its normal and that is why politics is not for the weak minded. It is we who has the power to choose in the end. The idea of rigging was made possible because the citizens allow it.
Blaming Obi is part of politics.

agulion:
Tinubu will handle economy, Shatima will handle security, and we Yoruba Muslims will handle media propaganda and lies

ComradeKunle:
When will all these killings stop? Tinubu should resign for failing woefully.

Brendaniel:
If a bank fails who do they blame?

The customers, the staff or the MD?

Your assertion is very wrong , you are saying Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria, that people are supposed to be behaving well.

Let me just tell you a simple truth, if everybody in Nigeria starts behaving well then we don't need a government anymore, we don't need the police, army or any judiciary...

The government is in place to make sure people behave orderly and when that order fails it means the government has failed in its duties.

Humans are not robots that will behave the same way, you will always have that one person who will disobey, that is where the government comes into play so that people don't take laws into their hands...

So your assertion is very wrong....

And if you say the leaders are from the same citizens, the question is why do some people pick the worst like Tinubu to lead them?

Even animals pick the best among themselves to lead them, because they know leadership is by example, if a leader is not leading by example the followers will not do the same...


If all the followers are good then they don't need a leader, then why do we have a president if you are expecting all Nigerians to just become good without a leader teaching them?

The truth is that those who supported Tinubu to become president made a very poor decision and Tinubu has failed badly to behave and act like a leader should....


So you can't blame all Nigerians because all Nigerians are not robots that you expect to behave the same way..

It is Tinubu's responsibility to make sure people behave orderly...

So please stop this stupid narrative of blaming all Nigerians I have Seen this bullshit too many times on Nairaland and I keep correcting it...

There is no day I open any Nigerian media or forum, the first 3 news are always saddening.

Try Sundays...it's always different

Amotolongbo:
Sunday is for the religious bandits

hardbody:
The law, thou shalt not kill was not qualified, was it? There was nothing to indicate that you may kill under exceptional circumstances.

Damilola20000:
Check your bible
It says the heavens of the heavens belong to the lord and the earth he has given to the children of men. So what whatever God want to accomplish here on earth he still needs the person of a man ( just like the way God is looking for men the devil is also looking for men to fulfil is purpose)

You read out of context. What was David doing in battle? Killing goat?
