A family’s desperate request for help in a kidnapping crisis triggered many reactions online. But one comment sparked debate for a different reason: “We are not angry enough.”
Frustration is understandable—Nigeria has lost too many lives and loved ones to insecurity. But anger alone isn’t the missing ingredient. Real rescue efforts require escalation through credible channels like the Nigeria Police Force, the National Emergency Management Agency, and public pressure backed by coordination, intelligence, and community trust.
Statements like this sound bold, but they oversimplify a complex crisis, turning righteous pain into blank rage without direction. Unchanneled anger risks fueling mob justice, misinformation, and misdirected retaliation that ultimately hurts the victims more than the culprits.
The real message should be: urgency, strategy, unity, and action—not just anger. Emotion is valid. Execution saves lives. That’s the red flag: noise without roadmap.
