Tony Chukwu, Ebonyi

The Chief Executive Officer of International Third World Leaders Association, Dr Myles Munroe said the only way to tackle global terrorism is to replace the idea of terrorism with a better idea.

Dr Munroe who spoke to Voice of Nigeria in Abakaliki, the capital of Nigeria’s south eastern state of Ebonyi said since terrorist do all they do with a reason and justify such in their mind, the only way to tackle global terrorism is to work hard to change the orientation.

"In order to change that idea, you need to present an alternative idea which will be more of protection of the value of human life so it is important for us to go back to that superior level of ideology," he opined.
　
"Killing won't help"

Dr Munroe who is also the President of International Leadership Training Institute however noted that nothing could justify the destruction of human life as those who kill, devalue God, the source of life.

He said killing of terrorists will not solve the problem of global terrorism which is more of an idea.

Dr Munroe pointed out that world peace could only be possible when all humans agree that the value of all human life is the same and should not be tampered with.

He called on all humans to protect the value of human life and work hard to restore the equality of human value and dignity.
