Reactions as Catholic priest calls for action
Jay Bouy said:
"Such school should have fortified their security seeing what's going on lately! I just hope others, including schools, seminaries and churches in these hot zones will put in better security system going forward, they should equip themselves to defend themselves because it's obvious that the government can't save them, nor secure their lives."

"If na politics and Rivers State now,e no for hard for emergency rule to be declared."

"Christians are waiting for God to fight for them from heaven forgetting that even David that God Loves so much defended himself and God was with him. Many Great men in the bible prayed and went to war but Christians nowadays are after tithe and offering."

"The church cannot do anything Na, the Catholic church leaders are like the federal government the only time they become vocal is when it's time to attack a fellow brother in Christ (gifted) using his gift for mankind."
