“Fair Hearing” is so important to such extent that, even God, who already has records of our deeds, will still afford men the opportunity to defend themselves on the day of reckoning.
@LetsTalkPolicy_@BarristerJuliet For this reason, the state must demonstrate that it can protect lives, prosecute offenders, and deliver services. Security must be professionalized, data-driven, and insulated from religious or ethnic manipulation.
@LetsTalkPolicy_@BarristerJuliet “The Constitution vests control of security and foreign engagement solely in federal institutions:
Section 5: Executive powers are vested in the President, including internal security and foreign affairs.”
@LetsTalkPolicy_ @themairoibrahim “The budget allocated to the military is skyrocketing, enriching generals and soldiers; however, this increase is not translating into reduced insecurity in Nigeria.”
@LetsTalkPolicy_ @themairoibrahim A lot of Nigerians are wearing hand me down religious beliefs and biases.
Many of the foreign intervenors don’t even understand the local problems.
@LetsTalkPolicy_ It is very important that both Christians and Muslims now agree that there are killings going on. So the next thing is to ask the question - who are the people doing it? Why are they doing it? We should be honest in providing answers to those questions and act accordingly.
@LetsTalkPolicy_ I get the point of the FDIs and the economy point. The challenge for many people is how is economy primary for them when their lives are in danger? The government must understand that when people face existential dangers, nothing is off the table at all.
@LetsTalkPolicy_@lomzyie: We must own our narrative, we must engage with our constituents to solve our problems. Our problems will not solve themselves.
We need more accountable leadership, accurate data and quality journalism.
@LetsTalkPolicy_@Nwankpa_A : The USCIRF has recommended that Nigeria be designated a Country of Particular Concern since 2009. The justification has been based on religious freedom in general, not only harm coming to Christians. For instance, the 2025 report highlights destruction of Shrines.
