Serves them right, the assholes. So what have they gained outside of them wasting away innocent lives, and them wasting away their own lives. Young looking guys with warped ideology that leads nowhere but death. I am sure they would feel stupid when they were being tied to the posts, realizing that their own lives is fast coming to an end. One can see on their foreheads the profusion, sweats pouring down when they too sees the executioners taking aim at them. Glad it happened. Nigeria needs to get back to this mindset. For the Boko Harams, their sponsors, the thieving politicians at large. Before you know it the country would settle down in a jiffy.
Jamiu Raji you are absolutely correct. The foolish kids that ought to have their futures ahead of them but instead chose a dead end channels of life by engaging in idiotic idealogy of whatever. Yes staring down at the nozzles of the riffles out in front of them, and realizing that in a matter of seconds their sojorns in this world is abot to end, so they start to sweat like mad. Oh well at least now they’ll have their own opportunities with the 72 virgins waiting for them in wherever their souls would end. Oh well.
Anjd indeed Nigeria needs to, and has to get back to this business, as it was in the early eighties. Back then it was hiighway robberies that was the way of the devils terrorizing the nation. The Oyenusi era. The military at the time got cracking and they cracked the whip. They staged a few of this shows at the Bar Beach, while a few others like Alhaji Eji Gbadero met their own ends at the noose of a hangman’s pleasure. Before we knew it the whole rampaging of the menace stopped. Apparently the then assholes could dish it out but could not stand the heat.This is what the country needs right now. But then where do you start from. The freaking court system is just as loaded with thieves just as the legislators. The police and the army too are just refined robbers in government issued uniforms and licensed guns. Wow wow, Nigeria in itself is screwed.
