Sadly,this is never worrisome news to the emergency lovers of Nigeria as long as Igbo/peter obi are not mentioned.

When I read stories like this I feel so bad but I send prayers to Chief Obafemi Awolowo that took it upon himself to introduce free Western education for us in SW Nigeria, he saw that an idle mind is devil's workshop.

This is the same state that carry Sharia for head in Nigeria instead of addressing pressing issues that will make their citizens to be fully engaged.No they carry religion for head , saying western education is haram , just look at the destruction they brought upon themselves.

They even allowed repented terrorists into their midst.

They should deal with their problems
u have spoken the humbly truth ...God bless u for this.....

Very heartbreaking. Its government responsibilty to protect its citizens. This banditry were allowed to trive during late Buhari government and fuelled by some stupid governvors who enter into agreement with these savage animals.

This is what is happening, the globalist and capitalist of the west are sponsoring these killing of local farmers in remote villages so they can run and leave their fertile farms, then big industrialised agricultural companies will take over these lands left and start planting their evil GMO seeds. Only God can help us.

There is something about conspiracy theory nuts with room temperature IQs that compels them to reveal themselves at every opportunity.

Although we have to agree that neo imperialism is both real and insidious. See the activity of France in the Sahel and many Western interests in DRC.

It's heartbreaking to hear about the tragedy in Banga Village. The loss of lives, despite the payment of a significant ransom, reflects the deep-rooted insecurity in the region. The actions of these bandits are deplorable, and it's a call to action for both the government and security agencies to do more to protect innocent civilians. My thoughts are with the families of the victims, and I hope that stronger measures are taken to ensure safety and prevent future attacks.

Imperialism and Neo-Imperialism is not a new thing in phenomenon in human political culture.
In fact, self interest is ingrained in the human psyche. Self interests ( taking advantage for one's gain ) of nations has been the driver of human civilization, and one might even say, progress.

Does Nigeria have a Self interest?
What is Nigeria's Self interest?

Nigerians kill, rape, loot and plunder Nigeria and Nigerians than had any colonialist power ever did.
That is fact.

Understood but what Western powers did in Libya had a cascade / knock on effect in producing much of the terrorism in the Sahel and Northern Nigeria.

We are still blaming others.
Nigeria is ,we are repeatedly told, a 65yr republic, and today, a democratic republic that the most populous and economically powerful in all of Africa.

The primary purpose and responsibility of government, above all else, is the PROTECTION of its citizens.

When the senseless slaughter of 38, 50, 100 ,300 citizens on a daily basis no longer makes headlines, no longer engender emergency press conferences from government security agencies, then it should be obvious that what we call government are themselves nothing but an assemblage of bandits, albeit, a slightly different type of bandits.

Are you saying anything one doesnt know?

Wait a minute.
Is it that you are not aware of the international dimensions of terrorism in the entire Sahel and how the proliferation of small arms started there?

Or you are saying merely knowing it amounts to "blaming others?"

We know that are pockets of terrorists elements in Pakistan, for example.
But when a band of terrorists crossed over to India several years to commit acts of terrorism, the Indian state responded appropriately to send potential copycats a loud and clear message.

If terrorism is flourishing freely in certain parts of Nigeria for quite a while now, then the Nigerian state has failed.., failed as in a Failed State.

Agreed, Nigeria has generally failed, and not just on this matter.
But knowing the roots of the BK problem can help develop out of the box solutions. At more international dimensions.

That doesnt necessarily amount to "blaming others" - a really intelligent approach might require involving those others in the solution!

Maybe you are too blind and myopic to see the big picture. You are clearly not equipped to engage in this discussion.
