El-Rufai says those behind Kaduna killings won’t know peace


Nasir el-Rufai, governor of Kaduna state, has condemned recent attacks on Goska, Kaninkon chiefdom in Jema’a local government area of the state, saying those who perpetrated the acts will not know peace.
Describing them as “inhumane”, el-Rufai empathised and condoled with families that lost their loved ones, and urged security agencies to redouble their efforts in protecting the people.
He said this in a statement issued on his behalf by Samuel Aruwan, his special assistant on media and publicity.
“While government and security agencies work to block all windows to ensure that citizens in the three local government areas and the entire state are protected, these forces of darkness will know no peace,” he said.
“These forces of darkness that represent evil and inhumanity struck again, killing innocent citizens, burnt their houses and injured some and terrified many.
“Government and security agencies will not be deterred; we will continue to be resilient, up and doing and courageous in tackling this unfortunate situation.
“Their tactics are to create a chasm, divide people, breed hate and prejudice and plunge the state into chaos but we will triumph over these evil forces by the grace of Almighty God.
“No amount of evil will change our deep commitment. We will continue to be firm, decisive and put lives of our citizenry and their wellbeing as our ultimate goal.”
He said the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) had been directed to take inventory of those affected and provide relief materials to assist the victims.
“Our deep empathy and prayers go to the families that lost their loved ones, those that lost their homes and property. May their souls rest in peace and may God see us through this challenging time,” he prayed.
