The government has failed on a lot of fronts, but the biggest of them is its inability to foster unity. From police brutality to herdsmen, RUGA, intra/inter-communal clashes, criminality of IPOB, excesses by Hisbah, the birth of Amotekun, etc. all have served to amplify disunity.
Unfortunately, we're facing each other, instead of asking our government hard questions, absolving them of the responsibility to provide an urgent account of their stewardship as far as protecting lives and aspirations is concerned.
Think about it. Where is the intelligence?

On this day 6 years ago, we woke up to 2 bomb blasts at a motor park/bus station in Nyanya. The strategic blasts occurred just before 7am when commuters were trying to make their way to their places of work. 100's died, 100's more were injured.
Boko Haram claimed responsibility.
Later that night, while Abuja + the rest of the country reeled from that attack, Boko Haram rolled into Chibok & abducted 276 school girls from their dorm; would have been more but some girls jumped off the trucks. Today is the 6th anniversary; over 100 girls are still missing.
