The Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, has expressed deep pain over recent unwarranted killings of innocent lives and destruction of property in Kajuru local government area of Kaduna State.
In a statement in Kaduna on Sunday issued by its national publicity secretary, Alhaji Muhammad Ibrahim Biu, ACF said, “The heinous acts by the gunmen or bandits were callous and inhuman, considering the number of casualties.
”Killing of innocent people for whatever reasons cannot in any way address the perceived concerns or grievances of the perpetrators of these crimes.”
ACF said it would not be tired of appealing to all aggrieved persons to always channel their grievances through due process of law rather than taking the law into their hands.
”This is because both the attacks and reprisals are often targeted at innocent people who know nothing about the feuds.
‘’ACF condemns such spate of killings of innocent people by armed bandits and gunmen, not only in Kaduna State but also in some other parts of the country.
”The forum, therefore, called on the security agencies to always be proactive in their operations in order to avert such incidence,” Biu said.
