Zamfara Villagers Going To Pay ₦25M Ransom For Kidnapped Wives & Children Caught by nlfpmod(mod): 3:56pm On Feb 20
Journalist and Northern security expert, Bakatsine writes:

BREAKING: Yesterday, security operatives intercepted villagers in Zamfara State who were on their way to pay ₦25M ransom for kidnapped wives and children.

To raise the money, the victims sold everything including farms, livestock, all their possessions and stuffed it into a sack.

Now the question is: How will these families recover after the paying ransom? As we all know ransom only fuels more atrocities. I think it's high time for people & government to find ways to rescue abductees without lining bandits pockets.

In the face of government ineptitude, what are they supposed to do to secure the release of their loved ones?
What other option do they have?

This country matter taya me, walahi!

Northern religious leaders like Sultan of Sokoto and Sheikh Gumi can talk to their Fulani brothers to stop their atrocities across the country but they won't because it aligns with their aim of radical islamization of Nigeria.

I remember when APC and their gods called GEJ all manners of names because of insecurity.

Yeah, Obi will cleanse the world of sin as saviour.

Sad fact though, if you really hustle like your life depends on it, you'll not continue wailing about the price of a bag of rice for over 4 years.

I just pity these people. The government they voted for are not serious about helping them and their elites don't care too.

The security men could not help them and yet don't want them to help themselves. Now what happens to their people who are under captivity?

The Ma sold his properties, who is buying these properties from them. The person must be arrested and drill too.

When do you guys get tired of this empty rhetoric?

Mr President has opened up to states having state police for a couple of weeks/months now. None is ready. They all stopped clamoring for state police. It's only easy for people to blast on social media and Arisetv.

The truth is that to get this sorted out the best thing is divide this nation so that each country will have their own security apparatus... They can have different defence philosophy either being proactive or reactive


I know many unity beggers especially the SW folks and North will not want this .. then the best thing which is another option is go complete confederalism where each region manages their affairs from security to education but will have national army but internal security will be in the hands of the regions .

We just need an intelligent approach to stop these killings and kidnappings! It is better to live securely in different regions or countries than die and be kidnapped in a single region

This insecurity isn't too much, regional security can nip this at the bud! They know their territories very well and that is why USA lost Vietnam cos the Vietnamese know their country better and that's why Biafra lasted and NO VICTOR NO VANQUISH was used cos the Igbo know their country and land very well...

They couldn't defeat Igbo when they were fighting until one clown introduced good blockade! And yet they still Faught !

So the best is go full confederation and regionalism ...

Anything apart from this we are just wasting our times

I Just hope that the money will be returned to them if they are not allowed to use it to secure the release of their abducted wives and children so that they don't lose their money and families at the same time. Because those security agents can't be trusted

So because it happened during other presidents that means we should just turn a blind eye? Tinubu said he will end insecurity and he hasn't therefore the citizens are allowed to complain.

If Tinubu win 2027 Presidential election, whether by rigging or whatever way, then all Nigerians need to be rounded up and flogged mercilessly for being too docile to bad leaders.


Tinubu has failed completely and there is no mincing words here.


Imagine the level of insecurity in a country, gosh, this is so disgusting and disgraceful.



If I am Tinubu, God in heaven knows that I will make history as the first African President to tender his resignation with apology to all Nigerians and my name will be written in gold in the sands of time angry


Why can't Tinubu resign and apologize to Nigerians for failing in securing their lives which is the number one responsibility of every President or King to his people angry

They left the terrorists that should be killed or arrested and they are going after innocent villagers that want to rescue their loved ones.
