UNIPORT 4: Unanswered Questions


As realization for their action and inaction begin to dawn on the murderous, barbaric, savaged and demon-possessed 'community' of Aluu (yes, demon possession is the excuse that easily comes to mind to explain how a person can brutally murder another), the rest of us are left with some unanswered questions.

1. What was the offence of the four murdered students?
2. Supposing crime was the reason, did it justify ending their lives without regard for the law?
3. Is this the way a host community repay their visitors (UNIPORT students) for bringing development and commerce to their land?
4. Up until the killing, where was the 'community' chief, school 'authority', and the police?
5. Now that the culprits have been arrested, will they be made to face the full wrath of the law?

While we may forever be left in the dark about the first four questions, considering the nationwide condemnation the incidence has generated, we want to believe that the murderers won't be spared and the victims' families will get justice. We will continue to watch as events unfold, and hope that these lingering questions will be answered, and the fifth answered correctly.

  1. I don't think the culprits have been arrested. It was the whole community; the boy and girl that photographed and uploaded, the pastor who stayed at home and shook his head, the school teacher who quietly taught physics in class while they burned outside, the pupil who wrote his homework in school when he/she knows...
    Must have been a hell lot of demons to take up so many souls. Hell must have been deserted then.

  2. My friend you are right, the entire community gets to share in the blame. It may not make any difference but I was thinking by now they should have shown some collective remorse.
