This is disgraceful, indefensible and unacceptable,\u201d he tweeted<\/p>\n<p>The former minister wondered how much longer Nigerians can put up with the incessant bloodletting, kidnappings and maiming of innocent citizens while government only issues statements.<\/p>\n<p>Fani-Kayode wondered how many more Nigerians will die before citizens cultivate a sense of national outrage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen will our people and Government say \u2018enough is enough!\u2019 Do we have any self-respect and pride?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are NIGERIANS that are being butchered!!! Our very own people and our very own compatriots!!! When will something be done to stop the wholesale carnage?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have endured the pain and shame in silence for far too long, hoping and praying that the authorities will rise up to the occasion and that things will change for the better. Sadly things appear to be getting worse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe cannot sit back and watch silently anymore as our compatriots are being cut short by a bunch of ruthless, vicious, evil and savage militias made up of primarily foreign barbarians and bloodthirsty bandits. The FG has an obligation before God and the Nigerian people to do far more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have a few more months before their tenure comes to an end to put a stop to this madness. They have a few more months to stop the war crimes, the crimes against humanity, the genocide &amp; the unprecedented terror and hardship that has been unleashed against the people of this country by these villainous and heartless enemies of humanity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey must empower our security and intelligence agencies, give them the green light and stop holding them back,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The former minister said that the government must take actions without further delay and must fish out those criminals wherever they are and stop acting as if the killers were being treated with kid gloves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnything short of that would be a monumental failure on their part and a deep insult and spiritual wound to the Nigerian people. There is no honor or decency in showing restraint before those that kill innocent men, women and children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no decency in treating those that seek to wipe out our people with kid gloves. They deserve to be sent to their maker in the most brutal and decisive manner and we demand no less from the Federal Government,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>There are reports that the Berom people of Plateau State have lost over 11, 000 of their indigenes as a result of the killings going on in their communities for over two decades.<\/p>\n<p>Fulani militias are said to have also sacked thousands of people from 68 villages and communities, and occupied the places.<\/p>\n<p>A recent report has it that more than 6,000 persons were displaced following attacks carried out by suspected terrorists in Kanam Local Government Area of Plateau State and that majority of the people were currently taking refuge in markets and primary schools.<\/p>\n<p>The suspected terrorists had invaded about seven communities in Kanam LGA on Sunday and shot at anyone they saw, which led to the killing of over 70 persons.<\/p>\n<p>Several persons were also abducted by the terrorists, who also set their houses ablaze.<\/p>\n<p>Reacting to the killings, President Muhammadu Buhari declared that the sponsors and the perpetrators must not be forgiven.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
