"Yesterday, my immediate neighbour at Katsina was gruesomely killed. He had gone to a town in Jibia Local Government Area looking for a daily bread. He was killed at Bugaje village by the bandits. Death comes with consequences.

He left behind his wife and twins. I couldn't sleep through the night because of the shrieking cries of the widow; it was so moving and heart-rending that I still hear the echoes of the cry; the cry reveals her frustration, anger, dejection, loneliness, and disillusionment with life.

It evinces both sympathy and empathy. While crying, I felt the woman might have been thinking of her loss of the breadwinner who had been at his best. She might have been thinking of coping in a society full of hostile givers.

A blind beggar once told me of how terrible it felt to beg from hostile givers as he couldn't be employed because he had not gone through a formal education; he neither prosper in an informal economy because he hadn't the capacity and the means to work effectively. He was a blind! What's my fault?.

 The woman is unjustly robbed of a husband, the twins are robbed of a father figure, and we are robbed of a brotherly neighbour. May the Merciful Lord forgive our dead and save us from these heartless men.''
