You keep mourning the innocent souls killed on daily basis by the bandits and yet you can not pressure the presidency to proscribe them as terrorist.

That's all, no protest to ensure Executive declares this murderer terrorist so that soldiers can go on full scale war against them. 120 people killed and we move......😭😭😭😭

Senate mourns 120 Nigerians killed by bandits in Sokoto marketThe Senate on Wednesday mourned the over 120 Nigerians killed by bandits at the Gorony market in Sokoto State as lawmakers held a minute silence in honour Just like that? That's all? Why can't they raid the bushes in North with military men; ground arsenal and air fighters, to uncover those bandits hideout and burn them down? Those bandits are being pampered, but the innocents are being killed. “The terrorists came to the market and started shooting every person they saw in the market.” nailed it well. The FGN should declare them terrorists just as their work speaks of them. May the soul of the deceased rest in peace.🕊️ Na IPOB kill them
