The Peoples Democratic Party has
said President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress, APC, and Kogi
State Government under the leadership of Yahaya Bello should be held
responsible for the killings of over 50 people in Kogi state.
PDP said Buhari-led Federal
Government and the Kogi government have failed to take decisive steps in
dealing with those behind the crisis, hence they should be held responsible for
the killings.
In a statement by its National
Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, the former ruling party said it was
pertinent to note that the attack followed the alleged importation of military
gadgets by those allegedly linked to the Kogi State Government.
The statement reads, “From every
indication, there is no how one can exonerate the APC and its administration at
the federal and Kogi State levels from this evil against the people.
“We invite Nigerians and the
international community to note that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led
administration did not take any definite steps to ensure adequate security in
the ravaged communities, despite a series of security threats, the latest being
the illegal smuggling of military gadgets into the state.
“In spite of the allegations by
the people of Kogi State that the military equipment was being delivered to
suspected marauders, the Buhari-led Federal Government did not take decisive
steps to arrest and investigate those fingered in the illegal trafficking,
particularly the already indicted aides of Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello.
“Now that the deed has been done,
all we get are apathetic statements and crocodile tears from the Federal
Government and the Kogi State Government, while those behind the act are still
walking free and probably targeting their next victims.”
