T he launch of the Terror Victims Support Fund, chaired by General T.Y. Danjuma is not only timely, but necessary, given the spate of bombings and other evil atrocities being committed by enemies of Nigeria. Terrorist activity has disrupted the lives of millions of our innocent citizens for many years now – and the pledged funds will hopefully provide some sort of succour to those affected. However, despite the noteworthy amounts that have been – and are to be – donated by well-meaning Nigerians and corporate bodies, long-term ideas and solutions are still needed to combat terrorism. We cannot finance our way out of this insurgency. Money cannot solve all our problems.
