Aminu Tambuwal, a senator from Sokoto South and a former governor of Sokoto State, has strongly denounced the recent wave of violent attacks in Plateau State that have claimed numerous lives and uprooted entire communities.
Tambuwal called the attacks “cruel, unjustified, and intolerable” in a statement sent on Wednesday through his official X Twitter, highlighting the fact that no society should tolerate such acts of violence.
Tambuwal bemoaned the recent wave of horrifying murders and devastation that has swept over Plateau State’s villages, saying, “These senseless attacks are cruel, unjustified, and must never be tolerated.”
He conveyed his profound sadness for the incident, offered his condolences to the victims’ families, and reassured the Plateau residents of his support at what he described as a “painful and trying time.”
Tambuwal also called on the Federal Government to urgently rise to its constitutional responsibility of safeguarding lives and property. He stressed the need for immediate action from security agencies to halt the cycle of violence and ensure that perpetrators are brought to justice.
“The Federal Government must live up to its primary responsibility. I urge the security agencies to act swiftly and decisively. The perpetrators must be brought to justice. We cannot allow Nigeria to continue on this dangerous path of violence and impunity,” he warned.
His comments come amid growing national concern over the rising tide of insecurity in Plateau and other parts of the country, with citizens and leaders alike calling for decisive government intervention.
