Make you gather around, my people! I get serious gist from the Gburugburu wey dey run our Defence Ministry, Gen. Christopher Musa (retd). Omo, this one no be small matter!
So, Musa don come out come talk say Nigerian government no dey pay ransom to kidnappers and terrorists. E drop this hot take during one interview with BBC Hausa. I beg, no be joke o! As he dey yarn, e explain say the military dey use intelligence and swift action to rescue people wey dem kidnap.
Hear wetin him talk, “If we dey pay these terrorists hand over fist, na them go turn around come kidnap everybody wey dem fit see!” E dey very clear say na individual wey dey pay ransom, not the government. Whenever dem get kidnap report, the military dey ready to jump enter action straightaway.
Musa talk say once dem sabi where dem put kidnapped person, dem go rush enter bush, most times the kidnappers go run leave their captives behind, and na so dem go rescue dem!
But as we dey talk, dem don ask am why these terrorists still dey operate freely for obodo Naija. E talk say Naija big die! E say, “If soldiers dey rush one area, these terrorists go quickly change location.” So, e mean say dem dey play hide and seek with our soldiers, no be small matter!
The general no stop there o, e dey talk about how dem go fit build fence for our borders to fit check influx of terrorists. E talk say if dem build the fence, e go help well well to control all these wahala wey dey happen. E emphasize say, “If we build am, e go fit stop people wey dey carry illegal substances enter Naija.”
Omo, e no end for fence talk alone! E don dey plan to use modern technology wey go fit monitor all the movements and show where people dey enter from. Na real deal wey e dey yan. Musa also call on we citizens make we help government with information instead of cooperating with these wicked people, make we jettison anything wey dupe us into supporting them.
E conclude by saying the military go redouble their efforts to tackle any insecurity way dey vex us. “With the President support, we go deploy more troops and technology to areas wey need am most.” E dey cooperate with other neighboring countries like Niger, Chad, and Cameroon because this fight no be small, na worldwide wahala!
So, my people, we gats work together, dey sharp, and make we no fall victim to these bad guys!
