    Until people know the meaning of impouray, the stealing, corruption, kidnapping, killing and destruction of lives property will persist.
    The question is what impels people to do evil?
    It doesn’t matter whether you are a Christian or Muslim , the scripture says we will know the truth and the truth will set us free. Is only when the government is bold enough to meet people like us we advise to introduce the system of pouray to drstticlly reduce the chaos in our Nation , many pray and fast but the problem persist why
    The cause of every wrong doing is IMPOURAY.
    Ethics is about wrong and right. Now ask your self, what impels people to act wrong and then what activate the impouray, I have the theory, just that we don’t believe in truth, no one is save, we are all surviving anything can happen in our world because we are the World.
    Man inhumanity to man, what a pity, we are all romancing Evil, almost every body doing the wrong thing until we change to do the right thing as people God will be looking at us. same I thank God for everything,
    God bless Nigeria.
