A former presidential candidate, Kingsley Moghalu has stated that lives have become “valueless” in Nigeria with the killing of 200 residents in Zamfara.
Recall that bandits reportedly invaded about five communities located in Bukkuyum and Anka LGAs of the state during the week.
Survivors of the attack said bandits killed over 200 villagers and set many houses ablaze.
President Muhammadu Buhari had vowed that his administration would “smoke out” the bandits.
“The latest attacks on innocent people by the bandits is an act of desperation by mass murderers, now under relentless pressure from our military forces who are well equipped to effectively confront these enemies of humanity,” Buhari had said.
Speaking on the incident, Moghalu, in a tweet on Sunday, said the Zamfara killings and killings in other parts of the country will end when Nigerians elect a competent government.
“My heart goes out to the families of the over 200 persons killed by terrorists in Zamfara. This & other tragedies say how valueless life has become in Nigeria,” he said.
“When will this end? When we elect a competent government that can secure our lives, the first duty of government.”
