| No more Kiddie gloves |
So the President now decided to finally do what every Nigerian has been crying out for-Annihilate The Terrorists! What i don't understand is why treat them with kids gloves in the first place.Cos the President has admitted that they have been treating them with kiddie gloves.How could you treat an organisation that has been killing indiscriminately in the country with kid gloves? These guys have killed young,old,children even in schools and religious houses...yet it wasn't deemed serious till now?I know countries that will go to war cos of one citizen,but not Nigeria.
President Goodluck Jonathan declared on Thursday in Windhoek, Namibian, that the Federal Government would no longer treat the terror groups, terrorising Nigeria, with kid’s glove.
Jonathan made the disclosure at bilateral talks with President Hifikepunye Pohamba, at the
Conference Hall of the Namibia State House.
He said that the Federal Government had decided to be more forceful in curtailing the activities of the Boko Haram group that was unleashing terror in the some states of the North-East region.
He solicited the support of his Namibian counterpart and other leaders in stamping out terrorism globally.
“The issue of global terror is worrisome and in Nigeria, we believe that a terror attack on anywhere in the world is a terror attack on everyone.
“It may be more in one country compare to the other, for instance, in the North-Eastern parts of Nigeria, three states out of 36 states, we are having incidence of terror.
“Initially, we handle it with kid’s glove, but now we have decided to be a little more forceful because we must thrash out these terror groups.
“We must not allow it to continue to slow down economic growth in that part of the country.
“With the terror attacks in that part of the country, the rest of the country feel it because Nigerians live everywhere.
“In these other parts, there is always the fear that if you do not tackle it, it will infiltrate in these other parts.
“We will work together to ensure that terror attack is stamped out globally and in Nigeria, we are committed.’’
Jonathan thanked Pohamba for his country’s support to Nigeria on the election as non-permanent member of the UN.
