PRESS STATEMENT: Condemnation of the Gruesome Massacre in Kauru LGA, Kaduna State

A call for urgent justice, decisive security action, and an end to impunity.

Hon. Pastor Adedayo Akin-Taylor Ekong
National Vice Chairman (South-West), NDC
PRESS STATEMENT: Condemnation of the Gruesome Massacre in Kauru LGA, Kaduna State
"I strongly condemn, in the strongest possible terms, the gruesome massacre of over 30 innocent people in Naridon Chawai Kamaru Ward, Kauru Local Government, Kaduna State, allegedly carried out by armed assailants."

This senseless and unwarranted violence against innocent citizens is unacceptable and must never become the new normal in our nation. No Nigerian should have to live in fear of being killed, displaced, or terrorized in their own homeland.

The continuous loss of innocent lives is a painful reminder that insecurity remains one of the greatest challenges confronting our country. I extend my heartfelt condolences to the families who have lost loved ones and to the affected communities. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone grieving this tragic and avoidable loss.

A Call for Immediate Accountability

I call on the Federal Government, security agencies, and all relevant authorities to immediately apprehend and prosecute the perpetrators of this heinous crime. Justice must not only be done but must be seen to be done. The culture of impunity that emboldens criminals must come to an end.

Furthermore, I urge the government at all levels to take decisive and proactive measures to protect lives and property across Nigeria. Every community deserves security, peace, and the assurance that their government will defend them against criminal elements, irrespective of their identity or affiliation. The sanctity of human life must remain paramount.

"Nigeria cannot continue to bleed while those responsible evade justice. Enough is enough. It is time for bold leadership, decisive action, and an unwavering commitment to restoring peace and security throughout our nation. May God comfort the bereaved, heal the wounded, and grant lasting peace to our beloved country."
