Why some Nigerians support Buhari’s ‘snatch and die’ order

By


President Muhammadu Buhari gave an order to security personnel on Monday, deal ruthlessly with anyone who steals ballot boxes.

This command was made known by president at the National caucus of the All Progressives Congress, APC meeting which  held at the party’s national Secretariat in Abuja.

“I really gave the military and police order to be ruthless… Anybody who thinks he has enough influence in his locality to lead a body of thugs to snatch ballot boxes or disturbs the voting system, will do so at the expense of his own life,” Buhari said.

A lot of Nigerians have criticised the statement saying its a call to jungle justice, and shouldn’t be encouraged. However, there are those who are in full support of Buhari’s #snatchanddie order and here’s why.

Why they #SnatchandDie
People queue up in the sun, in the rain to cast their votes, then some thugs sent by unworthy thieving politicians will arrive with weapons to snatch it all away and even kill and injure voters and you expect a serious govt not to take action ? Are you crazy ? #SnatchAndDie

I am tired of Nigerians and the fact that we still don't know what we want, do ballot box snatchers come with Gala in one hand and pure water in the other hand? Do people trying to steal hundreds of people mandate deserve to live? No. #SnatchAtYourOwnRisk #SnatchAndDie

If Buhari had said; "Don't shoot election manipulators". They still will criticize him.#SnatchAndDie

Ballot box snatching is not a capital offence but stealing the future of harmless voter is crime punishable by 🤔whatever the president call it. 🔫 #SnatchAndDie

I see nothing wrong with the PMB's order, unless if u're planning to snatch ballot boxes. If u're planning to do so, OYO is ur case. 😂😂😂😂#snatchanddie #SnatchAtYourOwnRisk #NigeriaDecides2019

Thugs that come to snatch ballot boxes usually come with guns and other weapons to disperse voters to make their operation easier. This is just a warning. #ThisIsGMB

According to InfoMigrants, Nigerian women are at growing risk from traffickers in Germany who exploit and engage them in prostitution. Read the full report below by InfoMigrants. The new prostitute protection law in Germany was meant to identify victims of human trafficking – most of them migrant women. More than 18 months after the law came into effect, thousands continue to be targeted for exploitation, and the risk for Nigerian women seems to be increasing. There are campervans parked by the roadside. Some have hearts painted on them, one says “girls, girls” in red letters. It’s an easy matter for someone to stop for a quick transaction in one of these Love-Mobiles – sex with one of the “girls” in exchange for the going rate. Prostitution is mainly legal in Germany, as are these mobile brothels. But many of the women in the business – including those working from the Love-Mobiles – are victims of illegal human trafficking. Most of the women are from Eastern Europe or Nige...

FULL TEXT: A sacrifice for our new political order – Ezekwesili

“When the ACPN leadership approached me in a series of visits to appeal that I run for office on their platform, the party appeared to be a good fit. It was founded by some disgruntled PDP members some years ago, but when its prime founder decided to return to the PDP, a core of its membership refused to move back with him. I was told that they stayed back because of their opposition to the ways of the PDP. Considering my vocal disapproval of the PDP and the APC, I admired the ACPN’s decision to stand firm and refusal to be co-opted.” It has been an interesting one week since I made the tough but necessary decision to suspend my campaign for the presidency. I have been truly overwhelmed by the reactions to my announcement from Nigerians. Even in airports outside the country as I travelled last week, Nigerians walked up to me with questions, concerns, encouragement, and motivation. I also saw disappointment by some who had poured their hearts and hopes into actualising our mission ...
