NIGHTMARE IN DAYLIGHT

fellas a day like any other on the 12 of January, 2012, everyone woke up in Data Kaduna preparing to go about their normal usual business when boom! Bomb went off killing many, maiming many and setting the homes ablaze, pandemonium, chaos everywhere. Little did the family of the Abdullahi’s know that trouble has just began. Abdulrazak Abdullahi and his sister Aishat Abdullahi were the only survivor of in their family. Little did they know that this attack was religiously motivated.

They lost their father, mother and two of their siblings during the bomb attack and later discovered that some people hid themselves under the bomb blast to murder their parents. Luckily for them they were not in the scene of the bomb blast.

Later, when life began to return to normalcy they came home to start their lives all over, it was then they discovered that it was because of their conversion from Islam to Christianity they were been attacked, as they started getting all kinds of threat and they were assured that as long as they remain in that community as Christians they will be slaughtered like their father and mother and every other Christian. This sent a strong message to Abdulrazak and Aishat that their lives were no longer safe, both Abdulrazak and Aishat had to run for the dear lives since September, 2016. Unfortunately, Aisha was killed to by the so called fulani herdsmen on 12^th September, 2016 in Benin, Abdulrazak is nowhere to be found up till now as he ran for his dear life.

My question is, is it by force to accept a religion one is no longer convince about?  The nation has being divided so much along religious line and it’s killing it.

So much hatred in the land especially in the northern Nigeria just because of religion. I believe religion or faith is a channel to see God and it is personal.

Until the philosophy which holds one religion superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned everywhere will be war and until the basic human right is equally guaranteed to all without regard to religion there will always be chaos and until the ignoble and unhappy regime that holds Nigerians in the north have been toppled and utterly destroyed, I tell you the nation will not experience peace.
