Boko Haram Started Like Joke, Nigerians Are Helpless : Last Words Of UNIJOS Student Killed In Jos Blast

Boko Haram Started Like A Joke, Nigerians Are
Helpless: Last Words Of UNIJOS Student Killed
In Jos Blast
One of the 7 UNIJOS students killed by a suicide
bomb attack carried out by suspected Boko
Haramists in Jos, Plateau state last week, Lydia
Komolafe had days before her death lamented the
incessant killings by Boko Haram terrorists.
Two days before the suicide bombing (May 19)
Komolafe prayed for a week of favour and
satisfaction.
Sadly, this was not to be as Komolafe was one of
the seven students of the Medical Laboratory
Science Department of the University of Jos, who
lost their lives in the bombing.
Check out her Tweets below:
“This week, I shall be satisfied with favour.”
“Hmm, now we don’t know if our parents or
siblings are safe in the park, church, mosque,
market, and schools. The airports are not left out.
I forgot, Aso Rock, isn’t left out either.
“They (Boko Haram) go wherever they want! It’s
a fight against Nigeria, and Nigerians are
helpless. Because they didn’t curb it at first,
terrorism has grown so wild!,”
“Pray for Nigeria, Nigerians can’t sleep! We are
not even secured in the midst of road blocks! This
has got to stop!! Who’s going to be our ‘Avatar’
in this nation?”
“If only we had curbed it earlier! They left it to
our governors to fight it; they brought soldiers
who molested us! Nobody cared! I’m not being
insensitive; I’m just saying if we had saved the
cup of milk from falling, we wouldn’t have been
worrying about the spill now.”
“Boko Haram started like a joke, we prayed, cast
and bound, we did nothing! The citizens kept
pointing fingers at the government! Calling it
different things! We thought it will vanish. Or
maybe, since it started in the north it would
remain there. As long as it didn’t go down south,
they didn’t care.
“They tagged it a northern syndrome. Little did
they know that it wasn’t going to be restricted for
long! Today there’s a blast, tomorrow nobody
cares. Fighting terrorism isn’t only for the
government, it’s for us too! What we say, what
we preach how we live, reflects if we are terrorists
or not,”.
“With one voice, let’s speak against terrorism. I’m
not calling for protests or any of that sort! The
moment you hold hate in your heart, you’re giving
room to hateful thoughts that could lead to
terrorism. Nigeria will get past all this! So help us
God!”
“Nobody should be punished for going to school!
There’s no basis to this kidnap! Our hearts are
bleeding. Please bring them alive! May the angels
protect them wherever they may be.”
Hear what a close friend to the late student, Zion
Abiodun said on Twitter
“I am trying to stop the tears, but it’s difficult. I
have never cried for anyone this much, just can’t
hold the tears. I need to wake up from this
dream,”.
So sad!
May her soul and that of others rest in perfect
peace (amen)
