We need to appeal to our senses to realise that no one has a monopoly of violence, and returning violence with violence only multiplies violence. It is not bravery to attack vulnerable people when you can resort to the dialogue and the law; it is savagery. As the great African leader, Nelson Mandela observed, ”Great anger and violence can never build a nation.” Or as Jalaluddin Rumi, a 13century Sufi would say, “Raise your word, not your voice, it is rain that grows flowers not thunder.

Government must send clear signals and walk its talk. Traditional institutions, even as they have no control of the coercive instruments of state, can do a lot to restrain their people from taking laws into their hands, for these institutions enjoy the trust and confidence of their people.
