No Government loves to see its Citizens killed – Presidency
The presidency on Friday said the President Muhammadu Buhari’s Government is saddened by the spate of insecurity in the country as no Government loves to see it’s citizens killed.
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina made this known in this week’s edition of Fridays with Adesina, titled NIGERIA AND WAR OF TONGUES.
Speaking on the alleged war of tongue, Adesina faulted some religious leaders particularly the Christians for “preaching hatred” against the government of his principal which has the potency of triggering violence.
According to him, religious leaders ought to preach peace not war, adding that they are expected to live by example.
He said, “when we speak evil about our country, and its leaders, it comes back to us. What we say is what we get. It is an inexorable spiritual law. Sow wind, reap the whirlwind.
“No government would love to see its citizens killed. Maimed. Displaced. Unhappy. And if anything, the Buhari administration is doing so much in battling the insecurity in the land. But sadly, it faces another deadlier war-the war of tongues. Why don’t we pause and think that it is the only country we have, and begin to speak better, more positive things?
“In Nigeria of today, if there are no issues to bellyache over, some people will create one. There must be no quiet time. The war of tongues must continue. Pity.
“War of tongues cause acrimony, discord, disharmony. But let not the person who causes that war think he will get away with it ultimately. His tongue eventually gets set on fire of hell. (James 3:6)”.
No government is expected to see its citizens killed but your actions and inactions portrait that
Then do the needful in tackling the insecurity in the country
Since when those people have been attacking Nigerians you have not brought anyone to book
Something meaningful and tangible must be done to tackle the menace of insecurities in the country
Because of this insecurity of a thing doesn’t affect you people, that is why you don’t want to do something about it or what
but that is what this administration is doing…. killing it citizens without looking back…….
