The National Youth Council of Nigeria, North West Zone, and Arewa Youth Movement, Nasir Ishaku, has demanded justice for the victims who lost their lives during an accidental bomb by Nigeria army in Kaduna state.
Speaking with journalist on Wednesday while leading a protest at the National Assembly premises in Abuja, Ishaku said the Northern part of Nigeria lack security.
The protesters, who occupied the National Assembly entrance gate for more than two hours, demanded justice for the victims and challenged the Minister of Defence, Abubakar Badaru, to either live up to his responsibility or resign.
Recall the accidental bomb by Nigeria army that claimed the lives of many people in Kaduna state during a religious celebration at Tudun Biri on Sunday night.
He said , “For those who have eyes to see, let them see well, and those who have ears to hear, let them listen attentively. Nigeria is not well because Nigerians are being killed day by day.
“Security situation in the country keeps deteriorating since his (Badaru) inception as Minister of Defence. These two organisations have a moral obligation to express our grievances because Nigeria is in a shambles in terms of security of lives and property, most especially, in the Northern Nigeria.
“Nigeria keeps losing members of the armed forces which include the Army, the Air Force, the Navy and members of the Nigeria Police Force. Our university students are still in captivity and no one knows their whereabouts. These are the clear indications that the minister is incompetent to handle that sensitive ministry. Therefore, he should wake up to his responsibilities or resign.”
