  • It is every parent's nightmare - the kidnapping of their children.
    It happens all too often in Nigeria.
    In the second mass abduction within a week, gunmen kidnapped what some reports say are around 300 school children.
    Many viewers may remember the Chibok schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram fighters 10 years ago.
    Kidnappings remain common - with thousands of Nigerians seized in the past few years.
    The government has promised to improve security - but the army is spread thin.
    So why are the attacks still happening? And what needs to be done to make them stop?

They instigated this whole criminal acts to get at their political opponents and here we are,they can't take back their vomit. Justice for the victims is to prosecute the culprits and their sponsors.

    • @abeltesfaye_
      @abeltesfaye_ Před 3 měsíci

      Israel, the IDF, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Genocide-Joe do NOT care about the Israeli hostages or want them back!
      Hamas has given ample opportunities for Israel to get them back by proposing various ceasefire agreements, but Israel continues to deny them.
      Also, the IDF is literally MURDERING their own people!! Did you know that the IDF murdered several of their own IDF members who were waving white flags when in Palestine? Yep, the IDF killed their own members. Meanwhile, the United States continues to VETO any resolution for a ceasefire, thus only ensuring that the IDF continues to bomb Gaza & could potentially murder even more of their own people! Face it, Netanyahu doesn't care about his people.
      It's also INSANE that Genocide-Joe & every other POTUS since the 40s, have sent millions/billions to Israel yet in Israek, 1 in 3 Holocaust survivors living in Israel, are living in POVERTY!!! This is horrific but unfortunately not surprising. Where's the money going? Oh I know - that money is being used by Israel to MURDER innocent Palestinian kids!!!
      We could also talk about how this GENOCIDE twds millions of innocent Palestinians, has been ongoing for over 75+ years and started DECADES before Hamas even existed! Or we could talk about the many tens of thousands of Palestinian hostages captured by the IDF! Palestinians have been targeted & persecuted for almost 100 years & it's sickening to see so many people overlook that, like you did with your comment.
