LAGOS, Nigeria – Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi, has condemned what he called renewed bloodletting that has resulted in the death of over 120 Nigerians in the northern part of the country.
Obi who wrote on the social media, said the bloodletting occurred in Plateau State, Sokoto, Benue and Zamfara in the last few days.
He described the continued killing as very depressing and extremely worrisome.
“The continued horrible spate of all forms of criminality, especially visceral bloodletting and killings, as witnessed recently in Plateau where over 120 people were killed, 50 killed in Sokoto, 31 in Zamfara, and 25 in Benue, are very depressing and extremely worrisome”, he said.
Recall that the killings occurred when armed men invaded the affected northern states and slaughtered Nigerians.
Most of those killed were buried in mass graves in Benue few days ago.
