Kaduna government concealing mass killings in state -Shehu Sani
district in the National Assembly has raised the alarm over killings
and kidnappings in the state.
Sani accused the Kaduna state government of concealing massive killing
of citizens in the state, adding that the state is unsafe as Benue and
Taraba which are currently being controlled by herdsmen.
According to him, poor residents of the state bury their loved ones
daily and pay heavy ransom to herdsmen.
The lawmaker disclosed this in a series of tweets on his Twitter page.
He wrote, "Kaduna state is as unsafe as Benue, Zamfara and Taraba
states. Birnin Gwari bothering Zamfara and Niger state is controlled
by heavily armed bandits or herdsmen who are killing both soldiers and
civilians.
"Kidnaping & killing are a daily occurrence. Anything short of this is a lie.
"The mass killings & kidnappings going on in parts of Kaduna state are
systematically suppressed in order not to embarrass the state and the
federal government.
"Poor people keep burying their dead with tears & others paying heavy
ransom to herdsmen. The victims are expected to praise government for
'trying'."
