The All Progressives Congress
(APC) has commiserated with the government and people of Plateau State over
Saturday’s gruesome killings in Barkin-Ladi and Riyom Local Government Areas of
the state.
It said nothing can justify such
cruelty to a fellow man as witnessed in the gruesome killings.
According to a statement on
Wednesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, the ruling
party said: “While we grieve over the dead and commiserate with families and
friends who have lost loved ones, we appeal to religious and community leaders
to demonstrate true leadership even in the face of this terrible challenge, by
appealing to those affected not to take the laws into their hands and avoid
utterances and actions that can provoke reprisal.
“We are confident that President
Muhammadu Buhari’s prompt visit to Plateau State will help in providing some
succour to the affected and reassuring everyone of Mr. President’s commitments
to tackling the security situation in the country.
“We also once again call on
security agencies to spare no efforts in ensuring the arrest and prosecution of
the perpetrators and in stemming the occurrence of such violence in all parts
of the country.”
