Streetwise with angel - Ozubulu Killing ;the Martyrdom of the Faithfuls

If you really want to find faithful catholics, morning mass is where to take the row call. It takes personal discipline to attend Morning Mass. It is never an easy thing to crawl out of bed at dawn out of your own volition to attend the Holy Mass. To attend a morning mass on sunday mean self discipline because you could choose to sleep and later go for subsequent masses.

It is a sad thing that while some faithfuls chose to go to Church at dawn to worship God singing within themselves "Here we are join together as we sing our song... joyfully, Here we are join together as we will always be" In all sense of humility they sing within themselves let us make the world a better place. Indeed they were in the church to make  the world a better place through prayers. Like lambs in the slaughter' s house the assassin descended on them  ignorantly.

In this age and time we have seen an iota of the killing that took place in Bethlehem at the order of king Herod thousands of years ago. This mean that religion has done little or nothing to make man better in his thinking. Kidnapping and ritual killing are notable crimes in our society. People have to go about their daily routeing with fear and trembling in the name of taking caution. For how long are we going to live in anxiety.

We will continue to look up to Government for security of lives and properties. Hence, it is time for our Priests, Pastors and Imams to stand against inhumanity of man to man. Let us think of the safety of the next person in our actions and collectively condemn inhumanity of man to man.

To the victims of last Sunday massacre... " May divine assistance... remain always with us...And may the souls of all the faithfuls departed rest in peace...amen
