Running mate to the governorship candidate of Kaduna People’s Democratic Party (PDP) , Honourable Sunday Marshal Katung has expressed worry over the frequent attacks at Kajuru and crisis at Sanga local government areas of Kaduna State .
Katung ,who said the attacks and Crisis are becoming “one too many” ,expressed sadness over the scale and magnitude of destruction of lives and property that have occurred unabated with very little action from the Government .
In a press staement personally signed , Honourable Katung explained , ” When the crises broke out about in Kajuru three weeks ago, we expressed sadness at the comments of our State Government, warning that it could trigger a circle of violence. For as long as government does not treat it’s citizens with justice, equity and fairness, this unfortunate situation will continue.”
While I sympathize with all grieving families, friends and relations, let me use this opportunity to call on all citizens to eschew violence and embrace peace. I also call on all law enforcement agencies to act swiftly to put an end to this tragedy while bringing culprits to face the law.
“Government should note that lives of our citizens irrespective of demographic, ethnic or religious persuasion should be sacred and should not be sacrificed on the alter of politics of deliberate exclusion. The victims are beginning to ask: Do we still have a functional and responsive government?
