What's trending ? Sadly.. Deaths. | Shooting at Chris Brown Concert|Boko Haram Massacre| Paris Attack.

The new year has only just begun. Due to exam commitments I was away from social media for the first three weeks of January but news still got to me. I thought perhaps things would calm down now, instead it just keeps going.

17 people lost their lives during a terrorist raid in Paris, on the 9th of January. A few terrorists were involved such as Yohan Cohen and Yoav Hattab as reported by CNN, to name a few.They all abducted their victims in small groups and murdered them.

2000 people were massacred by terrorist group 'Boko Haram' in Nigeria. After the abdunction of the 200 young girls from their school late 2014; the terrorist group released a video vowing they would continue to attack until Nigeria succumbs to Islam and all of its premises. They didn't waste anytime living up to that vow in 2015, as the attack took place on January 12.
This saddens my heart as political disputes in both France and Paris have resulted in the loss of innocent civilian's lives.




In the U.S., specifically ... A shooting went on at a Chris Brown concert leaving 5 critically injured. A fight broke out which initially was not taken serious. Even Chris Brown jokingly said 'them niggas is gettin it in over there', his frown quickly turned upside down when he heard the first gunshot. He was quickly evacuated from the building leaving his fans to run for their lives. Chris was criticised for running a low budget concert with no security; however he was just trying to do something nice for his local fans. This was turned into something else. Here's a video clip of the events:

There have been more deaths which haven't exactly made the news and it saddens my heart. My prayer is that God protects and sustains us; so we can fulfil that which he has placed us on this earth for. Untimely death is not our portion. I also pray for our families, even in their vulnerabilities that God guides them, places his angels around them, till they are safe at home. Every evil planned for us in this new year shall be nullified in Jesus name. AMEN. 

Thanks for reading, Peace & Chunks.
