OPINION: NO END IN SIGHT TO CHRISTIAN MASSACRE IN NIGERIA.

The sanctity of human life is a fact held across all tribes and nations, regardless of economic development status. Every known law is made to support life while the development of all technologies – medical, agricultural, industrial – are deployed to better human life. Life is precious, irreplaceable and not shareable.

Protection of citizen lives is sacrosanct in many nations. Not so, unfortunately, for Nigerians, especially Christians, living in southern Kaduna, Kaduna state, where a gross failure of the government puts their lives in daily danger.

A gruesome negligence by the government has meant killing, kidnapping, maiming, and all forms of dehumanization to Christians in Northern Nigeria, not forgetting the financial burden incurred due to irredeemable bounties placed on families of the abducted.

Month after month, the spate of mass abduction within the area raises curiosity over the silence of the government, even as men of the underworld continually operate unhinged in a country with large security architecture, huge defense spending and military hardware.

“Why are they pampered and no serious attempt is made to crush them out of the Nigerian space?” Many citizens ask. It is quite surprising to find such power and military might by Africa’s most populous nation overwhelmed by a terrorist group. Up in the Middle East, religiously motivated terror groups like Hamas are being taught an unforgettable bitter lesson by the IDF for the killing and abduction of over 1800 Israelis.
