Zamfara Killings Unacceptable, Threat To Our Democracy – Saraki by akinblog: 12:36pm On Dec 27, 2018 |
[img]https://www./wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Bukola-Saraki.jpg[/img] Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki has described the killings in Zamfara State as barbaric, unacceptable and called on the security agencies to swiftly devise a strategy to put an end to the ugly situation. He also said that the killings was a major threat to our democracy, particularly as we move towards election period in the next 50 days. Saraki, in a statement signed by his Special Adviser (Media and Publicity), Yusuph Olaniyonu, stated that the situation in Zamfara State is a demonstration that unlike in 2015 when the only crisis point in the northern part of the country was the North-east zone, the North-west has today been engulfed by a bloody situation in which human lives are wasted on a daily basis. He said the killings have gone on for too long and the situation has not been given the desired attention as well as the right strategy that will stop it, adding that there was a clear indication of systemic failure. “There is need for certain and proper profiling of the situation so that we can know whether it is simple cattle rustling, vicious armed robbery on a large scale, religious cum ethnic crisis or invasion by foreign forces. “Our security agencies must immediately come out with a proper understanding of the situation, the right strategy and deployment of the necessary troops to tackle the menace. We must within the next few days send the right signals to the criminals in that area that the Nigerian State will no longer tolerate the on-going blood-letting. “We must immediately change our strategy. Also, the President has to take full, direct control. May be the President must widen the consultation within the armed forces on the search for solution to this problem. He must go beyond the first line military top brass. We need to get ideas from more sources than we presently do. “In 2014, I remember that President Jonathan was told that ‘you control the armed forces and you are the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces of the Federal Republic, why should any part of the country be under occupation by criminals’. Why should we not apply the same logic to the occurrence in Zamfara today? “It is expected that by now, the President would have arranged a meeting with leaders of the National Assembly, legislators, traditional rulers and other key stakeholders from the affected state, to exchange ideas and proffer lasting solutions to the issue. The key advantage of a democracy is that it provides for wide consultation and inclusion. No one person or group has all the monopoly of knowledge. We really need to do all that is possible to stop the carnage, https://all-gists..com/2018/12/zamafara-killings-unacceptablethreat-to-our-democracy-saraki.html 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Reporter: Saraki what do you have to say about this? Saraki: It is a threat to our democracy. Reporter: Do you think the APC will win the presidential elections in 2019? Saraki: That will be a threat to our democracy. Reporter: Do you also think you might not be returning to the senate in 2019. Saraki: That will also be another threat to our democracy. Reporter: It appears everything is seriously threatening this your democracy. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

The service chiefs or CDS shud be called to explain why the killings are getting out of hand. The killing of unarmed civilians is disturbing and even a crime in itself. We need to stop covering wrong conduct by assuming every opposing voice is politicized. 7 Likes |

Point of correction sir, it is acceptable by the nairaland residential zombies, the Yoruba Muslims, Tinubu asslickers and the blind buharideens. The presidency doesn’t care about the Zamfara killings. While the president is busy with his re-election bid, the Vice President is busy sharing money from igbudu market to Ugbogonogo market. Useless government. 4 Likes 2 Shares |
