President
Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the killing of 19 persons by unknown gunmen in
Kogi State just days into the new year. Gunmen had attacked a community in the
Kogi council area shooting sporadically.
The motive for the attack is yet
to be ascertained but investigations are on the way. The attack shocked
residents of the state over speculations that the gunmen could be bandits or
Bokoharam terrorists.
The Tawari community blood bath
is one of the mass killing cases recorded in 2020. In a very emotional message
delivered through Mallam Garba Shehu, Buhari condemned the mindless killings
and urged the people to exercise restraints.
This is coming just hours after alleged Boko Haram insurgents attacked ichika in Adamawa State, looting shops and shooting sporadically.
