A former National Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party and former Governor of Kaduna state, Senator Ahmed Makarfi, has reacted to the attack in Birnin Gwari that left scores of people killed.

Makarfi reacted through a statement released on Monday morning and signed by his media aide, Mukhtar Zubairu Sirajo.

It reads;

The frequency, impotence as well as impunity with which bandits raid communities in some parts of the country and leave unchallenged is a source of worry for all patriotic Nigerians. The latest of such brazen violations of the peace and security of the people, which occurred earlier today in Gwaska of Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, which itself was the second time in under a week certainly is becoming one too many. Reports have it that over 40 people were killed in cold blood apart from sacking the village and setting it ablaze.

The seeming absence and or helplessness of the authorities and security agencies in the face of this callous assault on humanity grieves Senator Ahmed Makarfi to no end. The Senator, condemns this heinous and cowardly act and calls on the government and all among the agencies as well as the deployment of more personnel, equipment as well other logistical resources to reassure the people that they are not abandoned.

Senator Makarfi believes that government exists principally to provide security to the people; failure to rise up to this responsibility is therefore a recipe for anarchy which we can Ill afford now. Governments at all levels as well as agencies responsible must therefore restore people's confidence by doing all it takes to not only secure the area and others so afflicted, but also ensure that the perpetrators are brought to book.

The Senator also commends the efforts of the community, especially members of the vigilante groups for the bravery they have exhibited in rising to the occasion but observes that where communities resort to self help on such issues the prognosis doesn't look so good, as it is a blow on the legitimacy of authorities.

Senator Ahmed Makarfi conveys his heart felt condolences to the people Gwaska, the Emir and Emirate of Birnin Gwari And the government and people of Kaduna State over this unfortunate incidents and prays to God for a quick return to normalcy."

Thise ones they are a lost course my dear

They see evil and keep mute , they spread lies and propaganda all because of money , forgetting that what one sows one must surely reap tenfold

They believe in paying their tithe they are paying for a place in heaven

They are the most souless vile creatures one can encounter

I can't agree less. I had expected them to at least rise up against the incessant insecurity and corruption under Buhari government but they are adamant. To them, Buhari comes first before sanity, lives of others don't count as far as they are concerned, not even their own kinsmen and relatives. Bunch of evil juniors...

I pray God redeem them...

Under which Parry ? APC? No thank you

You guys sympathize whenever you are seeking election, you will look so humble so as to deceive the gullible ones and you won't proffer a possible solutions to it.

Pls, if your man enough talk to your northern elders & leaders that they should stop the killings. Sympathizing & condemning killings will not bring back those that are gone.
