PDP Urges ‘Incompetent’ APC To Investigate Killing Of Adamawa Spokesman

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has asked the All Progressives Congress-led Federal Government to urgently investigate the killing of its Adamawa State Publicity Secretary, Mr. Sam Zadock.

Mr Zadock, a former Commissioner for Youths and Sports in the state, and 13 others were among those confirmed killed on Tuesday along Barre village of Demsa Local Government Area of the state.

The killings were allegedly said to have happened after a violent clash between herdsmen and farmers occurred.

PDP in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, slated Buhari for not doing enough to protect lives and property.

“The PDP is particularly appalled by the fact that our nation is failing by the day following the inability of the incompetent APC-led Federal Government to ensure a peaceful Nigeria and to provide adequate security for our citizens.

“On a daily basis, the nation is inundated by news of gruesome killings and unabating violence across the country, with Nigerians being hacked down or abducted by marauders and insurgents under the inept APC government which has failed to take decisive steps to stem the ugly tide.

“Gradually, our nation is being turned into a funeral parlour with bloodletting in Benue, Taraba, Adamawa, Yobe, Kaduna, Zamfara, Enugu, Kogi, Ebonyi, Edo, Plateau, Nassarawa and other states across the country.

“The national leadership of our party, therefore, demand an urgent action by the Buhari-led Federal Government to restore peace and end the violence in the land, even as we urge the security agencies to ensure a thorough investigation into the killing of Zadock,” the statement read.
