Our Country Nigeria Today

         The recent happening in Nigeria has been so heart breaking, On one faithful day, I heard a news about a latest bomb blast, and when I tried sharing the shocking and heart breaking news with a friend, all I could get as a reply from him was that Boko haram bombing activities in our country is no longer news because of the fact that it happens almost every day.
     Does it mean that this boko haram sect are so notorious that we can’t stop them in any way, what is our security personnel,  that some huge amount of money are being budgeted by the federal government every year for their  monthly and other requirements doing about this?

It’s so strange that firstly there was a bomb blast at a bus park at Nyaya in Abuja, then while we were still trying to recover from that, and the bomb blast victims yet to recover from their sick bed at  Wuse general hospital in Abuja, another bomb blast also occurred at the same Nyaya and now unknown gunmen attacked a primary school, at Vine International Academy , in the same town of the recent occurred bomb blast.
       Why would boko haram be having access to carry out attacks severally in a particular area successfully without fear of any sort, and the most heart breaking part of the story is that they still claimed responsibility of their different terrorist act after carrying it out.
We really appreciate how Mr. President and His wife set up two different committees for the rescue of the missing girls and we we are still anticipating for a heart mending outcome and the various committees to deliver effectively, as the saying goes that "to whom much is given, much is expected".
      Just like Professor Achebe said before his death, there was a country.
