02-02 17:59:45Kidnapping for ransom started with oil workers in the South South States and South East States. The herders and wonderers learned the habits quickly and went back home to practice it with their northern brothers. Bad habits are like bushfires. It spreads fast and rapidly. Only prayers to the Omnipresent and Omniscient God will help us overcome the incidence quickly and permanently.
