The Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has described as shocking and sad the violent attacks that the police said killed over 96 people across 15 villages in Barkin Ladi local government area of Plateau State.
AbdulRazaq who is the Kwara State Governor said this a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye.
Condemning the gruesome murder that occurred on the eve of Christmas celebration, Governor AbdulRazaq insisted that nothing justified the violence on innocent people, urging the security agencies to get to the roots of the incident and bring perpetrators to book.
He prayed God comfort to all the affected families, and appealed to everyone in Plateau State to do everything possible to avoid a cycle of violence, which only inflicts generational pains and underdevelopment.
