Official and public corruption is at a minimal. Security is provided for the average citizens. Justice, equity, accountability and respect for rights are the watchwords of the non-sharia states and federal government. The sharia portends danger if handled with ferocity and recklessly but if played at its game with or without the aids enumerated earlier, victory will be the gain. The key is simple.
Alchemists use it.
But should we handle issues the way we presently do by not applying more sense before we chant slogans then we would become political and intellectual lubbers and remain marooned in the island of international mediocrity. We have become so scared and furious at the advent of the Sharia that we have failed to look beyond our noses for peaceful and non-violent antidotes to the religious virus that has clinched the soul of the feudal lords in the north. Peace loving, like-minded Nigerians, sense, please, before slogans. Mr. Young wrote in from Lagos . Chief Harold Dappa Biriye.
