Many people often wonder who are the wicked folks killing Nigerian people and why, I mean the real murderers?
Ilya Somin said “Most people probably assume that the biggest mass murderer in the history of the world is Adolf Hitler, the architect of the Holocaust. Others might guess Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin, who may indeed have managed to kill even more innocent people than Hitler did, many of them as part of a terror famine that likely took more lives than the Holocaust. But both Hitler and Stalin were outdone by Mao Zedong. From 1958 to 1962, his GREAT LEAP FORWARD POLICY led to the deaths of up to 45 million people – easily making it the biggest episode of mass murder ever recorded. Alas right?
The killers of Nigerian people may not really be those you suspect in the real sense of it. Yes, Armed-robbers, terrorists, assassins are murderers but are they the biggest murderers?
Ilya Simon identified how Mao Zedong’s ill government policy resulted in death of about 45million people.
What do you think of a government with ill policies capable of causing a catastrophe of gargantuan of poverty, unemployment, starvation, industrial decadence, poor education, ill amenities among others?
Are the corrupt leaders that use public resources for their personal benefits not murderers?
There is no smoke without fire. The high mortality rate has its roots from many sources.
That bad road that are causing many road accidents has been awarded for construction more than a thousand and one times. Who are the real murderers?
The health care facilities lacked in those hospitals have been budgeted for and bought on paper while patients keep dying every day for poor health care facilities. Who are the real murderers?
If the guns used by robbers, kidnappers, assassins and the like are bought by politicians. Then who are the real murderers?
If religious supremacy, ethnic and political bigotry that are leading to violence and claiming innocent lives are sponsored by leaders in the society. Can you identify the real murderers?
When security is compromised, politicized and banditry becomes popular ..You should say who the real murderers are.
Like Washington Post “Democracy dies in darkness”. All things fall apart and when would the beautiful one be born?
