ADP to APC: Arrest and Prosecute killers in Plateau

The Action Democratic Party (ADP), has advised the government of President Muhammadu Buhari to either effect the immediate arrest and prosecution of the masterminds of the early Sunday morning massacre in Plateau state or risk losing face and perceived to have compromised which means total failure.

National Chairman of the ADP, Engr. Yabagi Sani explained that the current perception held by the people is that the government of the All Progressives Congress (APC), under the leadership of President Buhari is shielding killer herdsmen and this must be proved otherwise.

‘If the government fails to respond appropriately on this Jos killing, the nation may be driven into a situation where every citizen will find security for themselves and this could spell doom for the country, he said.

According to him, it is a good thing that Vice President Osinbajo visited to commiserate and have first hand knowledge but it would have been more appropriate for the President to personally visit as he did to Bauchi recently.

He admonished all Nigerians to condemn the act as barbaric and genocide and do everything possible to help this government that appears clueless and helpless.

He said “At ADP, we commiserate with the People of Plateau State and admonish the government of the State to be proactive with security in the State and not play politics with the lives of the people”.

More than 200 indigenes of Riyom, Barikin-Ladi and Jos South Local Government areas of the State were massacred in cold blood, Sunday morning.
