Ndubuisi Emenike: Enough of these maniacal shootings
Today, the availability of guns in the hands of individuals has similarly and in a manner so dramatic increased the penchant for frivolous shooting. You walk just along the road, and for no reasonably justified impulse, a shot, some shots are fired.
What more, this situation has become so rampant and to the extent of been carelessly abused by those who have become handlers of this critical yet deadly weapon. People employed by the government and paid by taxpayers money to perform the statutory roles of defense and security are ordinarily and importantly armed.
But in some cases that have become quite often, we see that some elements within these forces, who ordinarily should be seen as capable and fit to handle these devices are very devastatingly people of unstable minds- they are, at most, maniacs, whose madness has become fortified with the barrel. They shoot at random, in what a crazy fun and in such a heavily unnecessary manner; most times killing innocent passers-by and sometimes reining havoc and death on themselves.
So much have been heard of how armed security officers have used the guns in their hands for some weird plays, killing innocent, harmless pedestrians and commuters alike- some by misfire, some by purposeful shooting. We've heard cases where cops used the weapons in their hands to kill their colleagues, working with them.
This is a consistency that has continued, and which continuity has drawn the need to question the sanity of those we hire as security personnel and those we subsequently arm with such critical and dangerous weapons.
The above situation stirs me to a bubbling anger because it has continued with a seeming unabatedness. And the recent casualty of such unnecessitated show of stupidity becomes no other than Hon. Ndubuisi Emenike. So pathetic Mr Emenike had to go, and in such a manner alleged to be mistaken. However, my pain in this sad incident of his murder is not as much in his death than it is in the action that snuffed the life out of him.
Reading the report, I can see the precedence that lead to the so-called misfire: the NSCDC official was reportedly shooting consistently. For goodness sake, why was the official shooting, and even consistently? In a public gathering and bearing in mind the possibility of stray fire as had happened. Enough of a deep clarification need to be made by this maniac official. Oh please, enough of this continuous senselessness. Enough of the rubbish!
