 It was a black Easter Sunday in emo status and non-gunmen killed peasants. Details are still sketchy but reports say the shooting started from banana junction then to the popular three palm tree junction in Orlo. Timber junction and its environs were also affected. Eyewitnesses say many lives were lost. Police authorities are yet to react to the attack. We're now being joined by the acting youth leader O'Hanei Zendipo worldwide and we're so here FCC Jones. Mr. Jones, thanks for joining us. Thank you very much. Aren't you bothered by the incessant attacks in Orlo community? Well, every reasonable citizen irrespective of your political, religious, social background will be very, very worried about what is happening in the South East, in emo state and elsewhere in Nigeria. So yeah, I'm bothered. I'm bothered about what is happening and I believe the real person is really worried by what is better than security and attacks and innocent and very soft targets at the South East. So do you think the state government with all the security apparatus is up to the task in dealing with this crisis? I have to understand that the state government is doing its best but you have to understand that there is nowhere in the world where we have absolute security. Even in the United States about three days ago a gunman shot through a park and killed a lot of people and about many people are injured at a hospital and maybe we can say that the difference is that those who have tried such acts in more advanced and more secured countries of the world are quickly and most often easily apprehended or brought to justice. But over here in Africa, in Nigeria, we find out that our security agents may not be able or may not have been able to really apprehend the sponsors and the actors behind these aspects of insecurity. The state government is doing its best over time and we must understand and appreciate the limitations a state government has when it comes to issues of security and the armed forces. The state governor is not the commander-in-chief and because of security the kind of federalism we are putting in this part of the world, the bulk of military power lies on the president and the federal government. But I do not want to agree with those who might think that the security personnel have been totally overwhelmed by these security challenges. All right, Mr. Jones, we've heard what you've said so far but then why the killings of INEC officials? Because it is fast becoming a norm in the state. Well, I would not be able to say why criminals act the way they do. The killing of an INEC official is as unfortunate as the killing of policemen, as security agents, attack on innocent citizens, decapitations in Hanoi and wherever this happens. It's a terrorist, a terrorist. It's unfortunate that a lot of people or some people have been cowed into refusing to attack these people who they act. A lot of them are trying to make us think they are agitators. What are they agitating for? They are agitating to be allowed to kill their innocent citizens without being brought to justice? There is no sense in whatever they are doing. They are killing people, destroying our economy, destroying our educational system, destroying our infrastructure. So the killing of an INEC official is as... Exactly, Mr. Jones. Having said that, what do you think the government and the security apparatus in the state is not doing right? What do you advise and suggest should be what they should look forward to doing now to help the situation as it is affecting the state presently? Well, there are many things they can do from a civilian's perspective and a leader's perspective by view that the security agents should invest more in intelligence. They should be able to pick up intelligence from the camps of these individuals, from these criminals, perpetrating this crime across the South East. They shouldn't be reactive. They should be proactive. They should be able to ensure that they capture, kill, or arrest only those who are guilty, only those who are behind these attacks. The situation is worsening because sometimes people, innocent people, or people who are peaceful in their dispositions are arrested or sometimes are killed. But the security agents cannot, all the resources available to them, be able to detect and find out where these camps are, where these individuals are, where the politicians who are sponsoring them are. How do these people move logistics to carry out such attacks? These people are carrying out, they require a lot of logistics. How do these logistics move? These are things the security agents should begin to do more than responding to, rather than being reactive. Whenever these people attack, they run around and arrest innocent people. So they should invest more on intelligence. They should track those who are sponsoring them, track the actors, and deal with them decisively. All right. So they should track those sponsoring them, the actors, and then deal with them decisively.
