Reno Omokri, a former aide to
ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has blamed President Muhammadu Buhari for
failing to act over the killing of 50 people and members of the Civilian Joint
Task Force (CJTF) by bandits in Zamfara State.
The
Speaker of the Zamfara State House Assembly, Alhaji Sanusi Rikiji, on Friday
said no fewer than 50 persons, including members of Civilian Joint Task Force
(CJTF) were killed in the state on Tuesday.
Rikiji, who revealed this during
a condolence visit to Kaura Namoda emirate, attributed the incidence to CJTF
confrontation with bandits in a community in Kaura Namoda Local Government Area
of the state.
The Speaker, who led the state
government delegation on the visit, decried the worsening security situation in
the state.
He said: “We were told that the
members of Civilian JTF have mobilised people from Sakajiki community in Kaura
Namoda Local Government Area and confronted the bandits in the forest which led
to the killing of over 50 persons including members of CJTF.”
Reacting to the sad event on
Saturday, Omokri said Buhari ought to have sympathised with the people of
Zamfara State.
He wrote: “Bandits killed 50
Nigerians yesterday. 24 hours later, silence from @MBuhari. No condolence or
comfort Zamfara.
“A terrorist kills 49 people in
NZ. Within 4 hours, Buhari was crying more than the bereaved. How can the world
value your people if you, as President, don’t value them?
