…frowns on govt’s inaction
A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party and senatorial candidate for Kaduna Central in the 2019 elections, Lawal Adamu Usman, has extended sympathy to the victims of the dozens killed by bandits in the attacks on several communities in Giwa Local Government Area of Kaduna State last Sunday.
Usman also pledged to look into further ways to support the victims.
Adamu fondly referred to as, “Mr LA”, blamed the escalation of the security situation in Kaduna on what he described as the levity and condescension in the handling of the situation by the state government under Governor Nasir El-Rufai.
He said he had been thinking of the best way to give support and succour to the affected families, stressing that every community in Kaduna State and other places must renew their collective resolve to bring an end to these mindless killings.
“I share the pain of the bereaved and displaced families and indeed the entire people of the affected villages of Ruheya, Kauran Pawa, Marke and Idasu Gari,” Adamu said.
Noting an apparent lack of expressed empathy on the side of government, Adamu urged extensive prayers for God’s intercession.
He observed that the regularity and enormity of the deadly attacks and destructions were beyond human comprehension and required divine intervention.
The PDP chieftain blamed the government and the security forces for not taking the battle to the cells of the murderous bandits.
He also deplored the slow response to distress calls by estranged communities.
Adamu prayed for Allah’s forgiveness for the departed innocent souls.
