NSUK Killings: God’s Word To Nigerian Leaders And Military By Wale Odunsi

So soldiers killed four undergraduates and over 24 hours later, Education Minister maintains a deafening silence. No one has resigned; no one thinks it is appropriate to apologize...Who says Nigeria is not a jungle. My father, a septuagenarian and civil war survivor, asked rhetorically a day after the gruesome murder of NSUK students.

For years decades, the Nigerian Military have never failed to remind us that we are in a country where the amount of respect for bloody civilians can barely buy a loaf of Agege bread or a bag of pure water. The intolerance, arrogance and zero-decorum they display when handling civil matters is best seen than heard and when we complain, the top echelon claim that the subordinate officers who carry out despicable acts are the bad eggs. But have the bad eggs taken over the basket? Personally, I think its high time the National Assembly pass into law a bill legalizing extra-judicial killings. That way, we will at least know beforehand, that those who derive pleasure in cutting short the lives of defenseless citizens have no case to answer. On Monday February 25, 2013, Nasarawa State University Keffi, NSUK, had its share of severe batter from the usual suspects. Reports say soldiers had been invited to the school by the state government, the school authority or both. Their mission was to quell a peaceful but tensed rally by learners of the institution, protesting recurrent water scarcity in and around the campus. The students had barricaded the inter-state road stretching through the faade of the school main gate. I got wind of the crisis at exactly noon from a friend studying Accounting. The Jambite was in a confused state of mind as we spoke over the phone and I could tell. He was jittery, narrating in an unbalanced voice what initially sounded like a film trailer. According to him, the men in khaki fired directly at the crowd after taking strategic positions in a way that suggests they were facing the enemy. By the time they were done, no fewer than three students had lost their lives, a few more with gunshot injuries and many others badly bruised. The soldiers then moved from one hostel to the other, flogging the helpless ones who escaped unhurt. Haba, broad daylight slavery in ones country! Moments later, I called two other friends; the story was same. At this point I became extremely worried. To stay abreast of the situation with their safety in mind, I kept in touch hourly with all three till the end of that day. If I had been that attached, one can imagine the trauma of the parents/guardians in their homes, shops, and offices while the sad event lasted. Some might have in fact experienced a heart attack. But for how long will this ugly trend persist, till doomsday? As we have always advocated, the attitude of military personnel and other law enforcers must be thoroughly scrutinized on a regular basis. Deploying armed troops to deal with internal issues of tertiary institutions is unacceptable and stand condemned. The actions of whoever sent out the invitation, the Oga who gave the order and the soldiers themselves will go down as another senseless killing of promising future leaders. These occasional youth-cleansing attacks are crime against humanity and I urge the United Nations Human Rights Council, UNHRC, to investigate this recent incident. Lest we forget, an exact scenario almost played out late last year at the University of Abuja. Only a week before the NSUK disaster, Lt. Col. Sagir Musa whose articles I find interesting, wrote on Media - Military Relationship In Nigeria (see http://saharareporters.com/article/improving-media-military-relationship...). In paragraph two, the brilliant officer wrote: The military is increasingly concerned about its image and reputation mainly on its professional disposition and the civil-military relations that could improve its relationship with the media. The media - military relationship in Nigeria in most cases has been insalubrious and often contemptuous. The basic explanation is that the history, natures and cultures of the two institutions are however fundamentally adversative The military however is hierarchical, regimental with great inner pride and loyalties. It is non-democratic, action oriented, audacious, intolerant and impatient to outside interference all these are tendentious, and must be so if it is to be effective in exercising its constitutional responsibilities. Although I totally understand the context of which he was arguing, his colleagues may well put that the strength to successfully achieve such enormous responsibilities into warfare and defense of the nation, not the poor masses! If Nigeria was a state where people regard value, the press should have been inundated with resignation letters of Nasarawa State government officials, Commandant of the Keffi Army Barracks and especially, the Vice-Chancellor the school, Prof. Shamsudeen Onyilokwu Onche. Now that the news has generated national and international uproar, those indicted will as usual deny; the rest in positions of authority will force out of their mouths lame emotional speeches and condolence statements. Lobatan! End of story. I wish that the spirits of the dead will not let the murderers rest. Their souls have protested and their voices have reached the Most High God who has sent a statement in which I find solace. Verily I say unto all in Nigeria permitted to carry firearms: By this, I mean the Military, Police and State Security Service, ye shall not count yourselves worthy of eternal rest yet. From up here, I see how excited ye get whenever ye brandish the barrels of your guns at my people. Continue to kill them, ye need not halt. Too many damage ye hath done, but remember, judgement is mine. Woe I say woe unto ye corrupt leaders: By this, I mean both elected and appointed public officials; serving and retired. Have thou heard that the cry of the students killed was scarcity of water? If ye hath judiciously used the abundant wealth I deposited in thine land; if ye hath put in place necessary infrastructure which are visible even in less-endowed countries; if ye hath ensured provision of basic amenities decent road and rail network, uninterrupted electricity supply, quality health care service, grants for the poor, the aged and the jobless, many late souls from thine country would not have passed away so soon. I eagerly anticipate all that fall in the categories mentioned. A special prosecution awaits thy souls. I advise, be fully prepared to argue thy briefs. Ye have a lot of explanations to give me thy God. For it shall come to pass, all man shall give account, every single account of thy time on earth. wodunsi@yahoo.com Twitter: @WaleOdunsi

Google Cites Censorship Risk in EU Data Control Lawsuit

Google Inc. (GOOG) shouldnt have to remove content from its search engine that was lawfully published elsewhere, the company argued in a case at the European Unions top court that will set boundaries between freedom of expression and data-protection rights.

The operator of the worlds largest search engine isnt a data controller, it is a mere intermediary in terms of the data which it indexes, Google lawyer Francisco Enrique Gonzalez-Diaz told a panel of 15 judges at the EU Court of Justice hearing today. Direct requests for personal information to be removed from a search engine -- even if it was put online by a newspaper -- would be a fundamental shift of responsibility from the publisher to the search engine and would amount to censorship.

The dispute raises questions about the scope of EU privacy rules when it comes to personal data on the Internet; the rights of search engines to use any online data to remain commercially successful; and who ultimately is in charge of what happens with the data. The Luxembourg-based courts ruling will be binding on courts across the 27-nation bloc.

The case was triggered by about 200 instances of Spains data-protection authority ordering Google to remove information on people. The information in todays case concerned a Spanish man whose house was auctioned off for failing to pay taxes. Newspaper La Vanguardia published the information in 1998 and years later it could still be found via a Google search.

In this case and in many other cases, serious harm is done to individuals, Joaquin Munoz Rodriguez, a lawyer representing the man, told the EU court. The information is tracked and ordered by Google and contains, to a very large extent, personal data.

Google is liable because it allows easy and quick access to information that wasnt easily found online before, he said.

Google faces privacy investigations around the world as it adds services and steps up competition with Facebook Inc. (FB) for users and advertisers. The Mountain View, California-based company created a uniform set of privacy policies last year for more than 60 products, unleashing criticism from regulators and consumer advocates over whether it was properly protecting data.

People shouldnt be prevented from learning that a politician was convicted of taking a bribe, or that a doctor was convicted of malpractice, Google said in a blog post. The substantive question before the court today is whether search engines should be obliged to remove links to valid legal material.

Data protection is currently policed by separate regulators across the EU. The blocs executive body wants to simplify the system so companies deal with only one.

A lawyer for the European Commission, the EUs executive, argued today that Google does control data. That view diverges from an opinion of a group representing the blocs data- protection watchdogs, which said search engines are generally not to be held primarily responsible for content.
