Honourable Gabriel Saleh, the Lawmaker representing Kachia/Kagarko Federal Constituency, Kaduna, in the House of Representatives, has stated that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government has failed, over the spate of killings in Southern Kaduna, .
He said this on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily, in an interview.
Very pained by the incessant attacks in his Constituency, the Lawmaker regretted that over 40 people have been killed in less than 2 weeks.
According to him, the people of Kaduna State have been displaced, following the onslaught by suspected bandits and herdsmen.
His words: “In my village, which is called Jabon Tudu, there was a threat. Everyone left his house, for the past one week, nobody is sleeping at home.
“So I feel the Federal Government has failed Nigeria. Our people are crying and suffering, over 40 people were killed in less than two weeks.”
While describing the assailants as terrorists, he wondered why they will just attack innocent people and kill them just like that.
The Lawmaker, therefore, called on the President Buhari Federal Government to deploy Security Personnel to the affected area, in order to forestall future attacks.
He recalled, that the House of Representatives passed a resolution that mandated President Muhammadu Buhari to sack the nation’s Service Chiefs, over the deteriorating state of insecurity in several parts of Nigeria.
Speaking further, Saleh said that Nigerians voted for President Buhari in 2015, because he promised to tackle the numerous security challenges at the time.
He noted that while the Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum, will openly lament the spate of insecurity in the State, Zamfara, Katsina, and Kaduna States, are not being spared.
