PRESIDENT TINUBU CONDEMNS KILLINGS IN PLATEAU AND KADUNA, ASSURES SECURITY AGENCIES WILL BRING PERPETRATORS TO JUSTICE
President Bola Tinubu has strongly condemned the barbaric and cowardly attacks by gunmen in Angwan Rukuba district, Jos, Plateau State.
He equally condemned the attacks in Kahir village in Kagarko Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
Describing the attack on the community in Jos and the killing and abduction of wedding guests in Kaduna as an affront to all that Nigeria stands for, President Tinubu assured Nigerians that the barbaric acts will not go unpunished.
"Anyone who will sneak under the cover of the night and kill defenceless citizens as done in Jos and Kahir village, is a heartless coward. By attacking soft targets in Jos, their objective is not only to cause harm but also trigger a spiral of reprisal attacks and further bloodletting," he said.
He has directed security agencies to intensify all efforts to pursue the perpetrators and those spreading misinformation that can inflame tensions and further endanger lives. He cautioned some sections of the media, insinuating the attacks were religiously motivated.
President Tinubu reaffirmed that security agencies are actively addressing the situation and stressed that public cooperation is vital to maintaining peace and protecting lives and property. He stressed the need for communities to comply with evacuation, relocation, and related advice and processes. He hailed the safe return of two of the Kaduna victims.
“I urge our security agencies to be more proactive in preventing these attacks by acting on early warning intelligence. All the remaining abductees from Kahir village must be rescued immediately", the President said
"I commend Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State for his efforts in containing the situation in Jos and Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State for supporting the rescue and containment efforts. I assure the people and government of the two states of my support. I commiserate with the families of those killed and pray for the quick recovery of the injured.
Our government is currently acquiring more sophisticated equipment to enable our security agencies to track and smash criminals, in real time, wherever they are."
Chief condemne!
ReplyDeleteWe are tired of these words and no action, Nigeria is gradually becoming a war zone where killings are seen as normal, and everybody just goes about their day right after hearing about killings, gosh!!!!
ReplyDeleteIts obvious you lot are at your wits end about what to do, why not ask for external help and collaboration if you don't have the capacity and resources? Anymeetings with those neighboring African country presidents/executives? How are the guns and devices coming into the country? Border patrol??? This is just exhausting.
You need a better strategy. Since how long it’s the same recipe.
ReplyDeleteI never expected anything more. ALWAYS CONDEMNING 💔
ReplyDeleteNa condemn we go chop everytime??? Mycheeeee
ReplyDeleteWhat I don't understand is the reason why Plateau state, with its level of volatility to killings, cannot have a militia group or civilian volunteers trained adequately to protect the state (in form of vigilante). They have it in Most of the Southwest States, they have it in Borno State, etc.
ReplyDeleteThese guys will work on intelligence, watch movements in the hot spots, comb the bushes and forests, pursue attackers, among other proactive actions that can be taken.
To me, this is sheer stupidity and foolishness. Only an insane man will do same thing in same way and expect a different result.
It is a show of stupidity for states like Plateau, Benue, Kwara states, with their recent experiences to depend on FG to secure them. Do something.
Take up arms and fight for yourself. Defend your home and family.
ReplyDeleteYour government will continue to right epistle on condemning the attacks as usual.
May God help us in Nigeria
