PDP chieftain, Usman decries insecurity in Kaduna, govt inaction

A Chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and senatorial candidate for Kaduna Central in the 2019 elections, Alhaji Lawal Adamu Usman, has expressed displeasure over the killing of dozens by bandits in the attacks on several communities in Giwa Local Government Area of Kaduna State.

He noted that the last Sunday attack where many people were killed was totally unacceptable and called on authorities concerned to take necessary steps to avert any occurrence in any part of the state.

Speaking to DAILY POST in Kaduna on Monday, Alhaji Usman observed that the escalation of the security situation in Kaduna State was due to the levity and condescension in the handling of the situation by the state government under Nasir El-rufai.

He opined that every community in Kaduna State and other places must renew their collective resolve to bring an end to the mindless killings, stressing that it is the best way to support in easing the pains of the affected families.

According to him, “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.”

He believed there is an apparent lack of expressed empathy on the side of government, urging the people to engage in extensive prayers for God’s intervention as the enormity of the deadly attacks and destructions are beyond human comprehension and requires divine intervention.

He decried the attitude of government and the security forces for not taking the battle to the cells of the murderous bandits and the slow response to distress calls by endangered communities.
