Standing Firm: Why Paying Ransom To Abductors Is Not The Solution by Walkthetalk(m): 8:55pm On Mar 14 |
The recent mass kidnapping of schoolchildren in Kaduna state has left families and the community reeling in shock and despair. While the natural instinct is to do everything possible to ensure the safe return of the children, we must take a step back and consider the long-term implications of our actions. In this blog post, we will explore why paying ransom to the abductors is not the solution and instead charge law enforcement to do their job in ensuring the safe release of the children. Why Paying Ransom is Not the Solution Paying ransom to abductors may seem like an easy way out, but it has serious consequences that go beyond this single incident. By paying ransom, we are: 1. Encouraging future kidnappings: Paying ransom creates an incentive for criminals to continue engaging in this heinous act, putting more innocent lives at risk. 2. Funding criminal activity: Ransom money often funds criminal organizations, allowing them to perpetuate further violence and illegal activities. 3. Undermining the rule of law: Paying ransom undermines the authority of law enforcement and the government, creating a culture of lawlessness. Charging Law Enforcement to Do Their Job Instead of paying ransom, we must charge law enforcement to do their job in ensuring the safe release of the children. This includes: 1. Conducting thorough investigations: Law enforcement must work tirelessly to identify and apprehend the abductors. 2. Implementing effective security measures: Schools and public spaces must be secured to prevent future incidents. 3. Supporting families: Law enforcement must provide support and resources to families affected by the kidnapping. The mass kidnapping of schoolchildren in Kaduna state is a tragic event that requires a thoughtful and strategic response. While paying ransom may seem like an easy solution, it only perpetuates a cycle of violence and undermines the rule of law. Instead, we must charge law enforcement to do their job in ensuring the safe release of the children and preventing future incidents. By standing firm and taking a long-term approach, we can create a safer and more secure future for all. X: @willedbaza 1 Like

Walkthetalk:The so called Western Powers do pay ransom to these terrorist groups once in a while, it was so prominent during Obama's tenure. Trump used that to campaign against the Democrats. If you can afford to pay, pay. It's better than risking the lives of your loved ones with those blood sucking terrorists. A special Anti kidnapping unit should be created in every state, to investigate cases of kidnapping, they should also gather intelligence related to the crime. Also, the death penalty should be introduced as punishment for kidnapping in every state, the Federal Government should also increase the wages of members of the security forces. 1 Like |
