ogbu mma ga-esi na mma naa

Maslow's law of instruments sị na "if the only tool you have is a harmmer, you tend to see every problem as a nail." This would have applied to ndị SARS ma asị na Nigerian youths bụ a problem. We can't say that a whole generation of young people bụ a problem. Even if someone is problematic, ọ ihe ọ na-eme bụ the problem and not ya nwa na onwe ya so you don't put a bullet in his body because you find his expensive phone or car problematic.

The quote that applies to ndị SARS however bụ Mao Zedong's quote - power flows through the barrel of a gun. Mana it doesn't end there because ịma what corrupts absolutely? You're right. Absolute power.

Ike enyere ndị SARS (which basically bụ just egbe ebunyere ha) is unchecked and thus absolute. That was why at some point they came to assume that not only could they do anything ha chọrọ, but na ha ga-agbagbunwu ndị youth ka ha abụ anụ ọhịa.

Human life is worth more than any amount of money or apology. It is the sacred most important thing a human nwe. Before a human enwee any other right, ọ ga enwegodi ndụ. Ya mere "right to life" ji bịa first na human rights enwere. Ndị Igbo n'aza "Ndubisi" for this this same purpose. Ndụ bụ the primal possession anyị nwe, so nobody kwesiri iji ya e test ike dị na egbe ebunyere ya.

The quote that should apply to ndị SARS iji controluo ma kwụsị their atrocities is the quote from Yeso Kristi himself. Jesus sịrị "live by the sword, die by the sword". Ndị SARS bụ "ogbu mma", ha kwesịrị isi na mma naa. If not for any other reason, for the blood na-asọ ha na aka.
