Jos: Atiku Decries Desecration Of Human Life

Former Vice President of Nigeria Atiku Abubakar on Tuesday expressed outrage at the latest violence in Jos, the Plateau State capital that led to another needless waste of precious human lives. 

Expressing his sadness over the incident in a statement issued in Abuja, Atiku said he feels greatly embarrassed by the mindless violence which continues to claim innocent lives.

In his words; “The people behind this savagery are the enemies of Nigeria because they are creating conditions that drive away investors, thereby compounding the problems of poverty, unemployment and underdevelopment.”

He appealed for urgent action by the government to address this embarrassing situation and uncontrolled lawlessness by murderous thugs and also called for improved security and intelligence to help in nipping the evil plans in the bud.
