Michael Nnadi: When an Innocent Blood is Spilled
Michael Nnadi, one of the four seminarians abducted early January from the Good Shepherd Seminary, Kaduna has been killed.
Of the four that were whisked away that night, he was the youngest, and one wonders what would have made his abductors decide to kill. Verily, it is barbaric, totally devilish to have killed the young innocent boy. He was aged 18!
Indeed, to not have had the fluid of a consideration of kindness, that could suggest that young Michael be released- at least if not for anything, for his age, to me gives a huge description of how just callous and wicked the killers could be.
The murder of this boy is condemnable, just as the murder of other hundreds and thousands of Nigerian citizens, who daily have had to battle with the thralls of kidnapping, banditry and insurgency. This incident is one too many that continue to expose the crippling security situation of this country.
The sad tales of kidnapping for ransom, killing just for some ideological leanings and the senseless likes have continued as to be serious headaches that seem to have overwhelmed the Nigerian nation. It shouldn't be forgotten that also killed alongside Michael Nnadi was the wife of a medical doctor, whose two little kids are still held.
This is not to say of the myriads of killings that have been openly recorded and the covert unannounced mutilation of people that occur on a daily basis in this land. Indeed, the land has become soaked up with blood of harmless, innocent individuals.To have added the blood of young Michael has stoked the already bleeding land. How so painfully the land wails!
Michael's unfortunate death again speaks so much of the insecurity in the land and more so the absence of the assurance that one is safe even when in the confines of their house. The young man, together with his colleagues, was abducted from the abode of their seminary.
These incidences of bloodletting speaks loudly of the level of chaos and fear that the people have been wrapped in. There's trepidation everywhere; people leave there houses, just leaving everything to fate- absolutely oblivious of what would happen and the uncertainty of return.
But they have to leave to fend for living. And with the prevailing reality, it is to say that in so much as they'd have to move out, they will be killed. It is this bad, and verily so condemnable. In such manner, I condemn these irrational killings, I especially condemn Michael Nnadi's death.
