Northern Governors Forum Condemns Mob Attack on Travelers in Edo State, Demands Full Investigation and Justice

The Northern States Governors' Forum (NSGF) has vehemently condemned the horrific murder of travelers from Northern Nigeria in the Udune Efandion community of Uromi, Edo State.

The Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Gombe State, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, CON, described the attack as a gross violation of human rights, stressing that extrajudicial violence is entirely unacceptable and must be unequivocally condemned with the utmost severity.

The Northern Governors' Forum expressed its deepest condolences to the families of the victims and all those affected by this tragic event.

"We are deeply disturbed by the loss of innocent lives and the horrific manner in which these individuals were attacked," Governor Inuwa Yahaya said.

"This appalling act undermines the rule of law and the very fabric of our society. It is imperative that the relevant authorities conduct a full and thorough investigation into this senseless act. The perpetrators must be identified, arrested, and brought to justice swiftly."

Governor Inuwa Yahaya reiterated that all Nigerians, regardless of their region, should be able to travel freely and safely without fear of harassment, violence, or intimidation.

He urged the government and law enforcement agencies to take swift action to prevent such incidents from recurring, while also appealing for calm.

Gwo gwo gwo ngwo

What were they doing with guns and weapons?
Killing antelopes, lions?
Or when did it become legal to bear arms? Infact can we all be allowed to have guns? Or are some people above the law?

We read countless reports here that fulani boys were inserting g sticks into women after raping them in their farms at Enugu state, but we never heard any noise from these inebriated governors..
My question once again is; where are their outrage and condemnation..
This is unacceptable. This very strange country has indulged these people for so long, that they are starting to think that it is only their lives that matter.
Absolute nonsense

Thank God that incident didn't take place anywhere in the South East. If it had, by now agbadorians would've been calling on northerners to start killing the Igbos across northern states.

Anarchy is looming in Nigeria! Tinubu's style of leadership is the type that will bring this country to its knees!

With his flagrant abuse of power, violation of constitution, anti-people economic policies, and many more, Nigerians are frustrated!

The most peaceful States in Nigeria (Enugu and Edo) and many others have become chaotic!

Tinubu is incapable! Nigerians must be delivered from the hands of Tinubu!

Till date no justice to Deborah Samuel Yakubu, the christian student murdered by Muslim mob. The criminal case against the perpetrators was later dropped shocked

Not even Tinubu will get justice when dead. It continues happening in circle. Atiku had to cowardly drop his tweet against the jihadist islamists in disguise. This country issa a zoo🤷

If I jam any Fulani man one on one for inside bush, I go kpai am straight up.

These guys have wrecked a lot of havoc on Nigerians and the govt has failed to do anything meaningful about curtailing their excesses. The Edo people only reacted based on the actions and antecedents of the fulanis.

The killing wasn't right and I hope these people were as vocal when that idiot killed Deborah?

Hopefully all those that said nothing then will say nothing now as that will be hypocritical.

When any government fails in it's duty of providing security to the people

The people will have no option than to protect themselves

We condemn any form of jungle justice

But where were these northern leaders when Deborah was lynched and set ablaze

The perpetrators are still out there walking free while the government does nothing

Hypocrisy stinks in Nigeria
Double standard is sickening

just yesterday, 10 people were killed in plateau state by armed Bandits
nothing from the government at all levels..

Anarchy looms
Tinubu is failing and failing drastically
This is the worst government ever

They are hypocrites, southern governors and elders must be active, there is a war going on.

Northern leaders should tell fulanis to leave southern forests, this issue will escalate, the people of the south will no longer tolerate the kidnapping by fulani people in our forests. We will help ourselves since the government is playing politics with human lives.
