Quotable

Since the outbreak of the present violence, many columnists have written endlessly accusing government of incompetence and blaming every terrorist attack on failure of government. But the sad story is this grave crisis has not elicited the expected rigorous thinking and analysis from policy and intellectual circles in Nigeria. There have been no high-profile intellectual events to headline a serious commitment on the part of researchers and policy thinkers to properly understand and prepare for what may be a persistent challenge of the 21th Century for Nigeria.
