Killers, Trouble Makers Have No Hiding Place In Nasarawa — Governor Sule 

Trouble makers, killers and armed robbery gangs, have been warned to stay clear of Nasarawa State. 

Governor Abdullahi A. Sule gave the warning during a meeting on Monday with security chiefs, traditional rulers as well as Tiv and Fulani community leaders in Obi Local Government Area.

He promised to take prompt and decisive action in apprehending and prosecuting anyone caught breaching the peace being enjoyed in the state.

The meeting was a prompt response and part of sustained efforts to curtail the violence that erupted in parts of Obi and Lafia local government areas of the state at the weekend.

“What is more troubling is that despite our untiring efforts that have kept us on our toes before and through the weekend; there was a needless loss of lives of our citizens.

“Such act of violence is most unfortunate, condemnable, unacceptable and will not be condoned by this administration”, he said.

The governor admonished the people to live in peace with one another and to shun mischief makers looking for opportunities to cause mayhem.

“Let me at this point condole with the families who lost their members and properties. As an administration, we will do everything possible to get to the bottom of this and forestall any future security breach”, he added. 

Governor Sule promised to send relief materials to those persons displaced by the crisis for a short period as the government will prefer to work with all stakeholders to ensure people return to their communities and businesses as quickly as possible.
