Too Bad

Sometimes, when I read certain things in the paper about Nigeria, it is like there is no hope left for that country. I was just going through the papers and I read that gunmen in Nigeria have kidnapped the elder brother of Nigerian and Everton football star Joseph Yobo. Norum Yobo was kidnapped from his hotel in Port Harcourt. I honestly feel saddened that this case of kidnapping and causing unnecessary pain to innocent citizens is still ongoing in Nigeria. I mean it is a crime in the first place to violate another person's freedom. I feel so ashamed that not only is this a criminal offence but an act that puts everyone from Nigeria in a bad light. Nigerian government have done wrong not only to the Niger-deltans but to all. Everybody wants a piece of the national cake but only few want to contribute any positive thing to the nation. God has given Africans all the necessary resources to live a good life but we are under utilising all our resources. I pray for the family of Norum and also for Norum himself. Only God knows what the man is going through.

  2. its quite unfortunate the situation that is facing Nigeria, the citizens have lost all hope in the leaders of the country, if somthing is not urgently done to tackle this problem of kidnapping we face a situation where lawlessness will be the order of the day
