Plateau Massacre: Bishop Urges Self-defense Against Killers by pheelbert: 3:02pm On Dec 31, 2023
In the aftermath of the Christmas day massacre in Plateau State, Bishop Seun Adeoye of Osun has delivered a powerful message, calling on the survivors to defend themselves against further attacks. The cleric expressed deep condemnation for the killings and decried the lack of prompt security intervention during the horrific incidents.

In his New Year Message titled “Never fold your arms again,” Bishop Adeoye empathized with the victims while issuing a resounding call to action. He urged the survivors not to passively endure further bloodshed but instead to resist and protect themselves and their loved ones.

Highlighting the recurring violence in Plateau, Benue, and Kaduna states, Bishop Adeoye questioned the prolonged existence of such atrocities. He expressed disappointment in the government’s failure to fulfill its primary duty of safeguarding citizens, emphasizing that self-defense is a fundamental right in the face of such grave danger.

The bishop expressed dismay at the lack of accountability for the heinous acts and called for a substantial response from the authorities responsible for ensuring the nation’s security. He criticized the apparent indifference displayed by national leaders following the initial expressions of condolences, emphasizing the urgent need for proactive measures to prevent future tragedies.

Bishop Adeoye confronted the issue head-on, challenging the security forces to either rise to the occasion or step aside if they are unable to fulfill their mandate. His poignant statements underscored the gravity of the situation and emphasized the imperative for decisive action to protect innocent lives.

The bishop’s impassioned plea resonates not only with the people of Nigeria but also with global audiences. His call for self-defense as a fundamental right, coupled with his critique of governmental inaction, serves as a compelling narrative that transcends geographical boundaries.

All past leaders did starting from obj. When Christians fought back in obj era, a state of emergency was declared by obj which helped the cause of the herdsmen.

Benue and plateau state need to copy the state police amotekun template of the SW.

I agree with you, leaders in north central should come together and set up a security outfit in the region instead of waiting for the federal government that will never help them

Right to self defense is guaranteed in Nigeria's constitution.
The only problem is, the government will leave the killers with AK47 and start arresting locals with Dane guns who are trying to protect their own lives and properties.
