The Terror Attack In Örebro, Sweden

The Terror Attack In Örebro

Örebro Castle

On Tuesday 4th of February 2025, a Swedish terrorist named Richard Andersson killed 10 people in the city of Örebro in Sweden. The terrorist attack was the worst in the history of Sweden.

The act of terror was carried out at Risberga school in Örebro. The school is where (foreign) students or relatively new settlers in Sweden would go in order to learn Swedish language in their process of integrating into the Swedish society. In Sweden you need a good knowledge the language to make a head way in many aspects of the Swedish life.

A lot of concerned citizens have expressed anger, frustrations, and disappointment in how the Swedish government, the Swedish police and the Swedish media have reported the terrorist attack.

For instance, the terror attack, as at the time of writing the blog, has not been called a terror attack. The police, the government and the media have reported it as a mass shooting. They have refused to call Richard a terrorist. Rather they have painted another picture of him (you will not read that on my blog, sorry). I don’t glorify terrorist.

In reporting the number of victims, the Swedish government, the police, and the Swedish media have reported that 11 people died in the terror attack, a number that included the terrorist. The correct report should have read that 10 people have been killed by a terrorist who also died in the line of his terrorist action. The Swedish police and Swedish media and the Swedish government have shown great disrespect to the victims (and the families of the victims) of the terror attack in Örebro. I have been blogging for about 2 decades, the handling of the terror attack in Örebro is the worst form of miscommunication and dishonesty I have encountered by any government, media, or police reporting terror attacks.

The police and the government of Sweden have failed the general population. They have failed the entire world. By not declaring the event of 4 of February an act of terrorism, the government failed to live up to its responsibility to protect lives and property.

The police, the government and the media heaped a lot of dishonour on the dead when they said that the motive was not known (even till today the 9th of February 2025) and that the killing may not have an ideological linkage.

It is common sense that a terror attack that is carried out at a school has an ideology linked to education. But I have read many times that common sense is actually not common. The motive was as clear as daylight. The terrorist targeted a school that immigrants would attend to learn or improve their Swedish language skills. His motive was to decimate the immigrant population in Örebro. He killed 10 people.

 The terrorist act is a tragedy on one part. The actions, speeches and the reactions of the Swedish government, the Swedish police and the Swedish media constitute a greater collective tragedy. I don’t think there is any immigrant in Sweden today who trust the Swedish government, the Swedish Police and the Swedish media after the Örebro terror attack.

An opportunity, albeit an unfortunate one, to galvanize the country has been misused. It has been wasted. It has been used to divide the country more than ever. What a wasted opportunity! Lives were unnecessarily wasted by a terrorist and the government and the police made a mess of the sad situation. The media was caged in!

The people who have lost their loved ones, sisters, brothers, sons, wives, girlfriends, husbands, daughters, uncles, aunts and friends would have expected a more compassionate act of truth and actual presentations of events rather than all the cover-ups that the government and the Swedish media are displaying.  

My sincere condolences to all the people who are affected by this act of terror. I have you in my thoughts now. I will have you in my thoughts every time I stop at Örebro, every time I visit Örebro and every time I drive by. You will be in my thoughts every time Örebro appears in my mind and in my conversations.

May the soul of the ten people killed by the terrorist rest in peace.

Nigerian Governor Call For The Massacre Of Foreigners

By Adeola Aderounmu

A serving governor in Nigeria Mr. El Rufai has called for foreigners who interfere in Nigerian elections to be murdered and send back to their countries in body bags.

This is probably the most useless tv interview you will see this month and this should probably open your eyes on the emergence and rise of Boko Harm in Northern Nigeria.

 

 

Those who have been in doubt  about the roles of the elites like Buhari, Atiku and El-Rufai in the emergence and rise of Boko Haram need to start a new analysis of the genesis and rise of Boko Haram.

This is how it all started. This slip of thoughts by El Rufai is a tip of the icebergs in the mentality of the Northern elites.

Go back in time when Atiku and Buhari promised to unleash terror if they lost elections. Where do you think the terror was coming from? Of course, they always meant the use of Boko Haram and the use of ever ready to slaughter Northerners. Or ask yourself, who are the fighters that are going to kill foreigners and put them in body bags? They cannot be the police and l don’t think El-Rufai had the Nigerian army in mind.

Does that make sense now? Ok, go and do more research and you will see how we have been beating about the bush about the people to really arrest in order to stop Boko Haram.

From another point of view, when l listened to El-Rufai   in this short clips, l saw one of the several reasons why Africa is underdeveloped. We have basically mad men in power, people of very low mentalities.

Europe and America for sure had their histories but so does Africa. We have had our dark history. Now the world is in the light and everyone is civil but El Rufai said we should still be going through this nonsense again. Then when are we going to emerge and catch up with the rest of the world.

No, Mr. foolish El Rufai, we are tired of this regurgitation—-every country went thru this or that. We too have been here before. As recent as 1959, Nigeria had so much violence that the independence was shaky. Every election year had been hell and the military rule had been torturing.

We must emerge now and we cannot wait.

In addition, when you talk about what other countries went through, the last of them that is missing in Nigeria is the bloody revolution.

And in the words of El-Rufai, body bags are used for people like him in a bloody revolution. I support that if that will bring us at par with the rest of the world in the shortest time possible.

The problem is how we think.

In a sane world, should we even be talking about criminals in apc and pdp? Should they not all be under arrest now or serving terms in prisons? Criminals like El-rufai, who also doubled as a religious fanatic should never be seen in public. They should be in prisons and when they are free should only be controlling their bedrooms.

This man is evil and his case should be sent to the international criminal court of justice. There is nothing that should stop the arrest and prosecution of Buhar as well. These men don’t belong among other men, they are far from civil and the only thing that gives them satisfaction is the blood of others.

what a mess!

The Nigerian Terrorist? No, we are not a nation of terrorists

Adeola Aderounmu

One Abdul Mudallab has been named as the Nigerian Terrorist that tried to blow up a passenger plane arriving in the US.

I will make this a very short response because details are still emerging that will throw more lights on the incidents (and even the precedents).

But I want to assure all friends of Nigeria and Nigerians that this is totally an isolated incident. Nigerians are not terrorists. Nigeria is a country where Islam and Christianity are the dominant religions. Muslims are concentrated in the North and Christians in the South.

Religious riots are common in the North and sporadic in the South but above all we try to overcome our differences and live in peace. It is hard because of poverty and ignorance especially in the North where it is relatively easier to lure people into violence or acts of violence.

Nigerians are generally peace loving, warm, friendly and very tolerant. If any Nigerian is caught as a terrorist, it will be mostly due to ignorance and personal ideology rather than a common trait. We are not terrorists and we don’t plan to become a terrorist nation. True, the North of Nigeria may have been infiltrated but still it doesn’t reveal that this is an accepted ideology.

Surely I will try to write more about this as details unfold. AND this particular incident is giving me a shift away from the focus of my blogging. I have never thought that a day will come that I will write about terrorism on my blog. But the day is here now as a “Nigerian” Abdul Mudallad has been caught and this is a very reckless attempt to give the rest of us a bad name.

The Nigerian Press must ensure a fair report of this incident and together we must do all we can to restore our image: Nigeria is not a country of terrorists!
