FAILURE OF FEDERAL POLICING CAUSE OF KADUNA
The National Human Rights Commission has blamed the abduction of 286 students and teachers from two schools in Kaduna on the failure of the federal policing system in Nigeria.
This was disclosed by the commission’s Executive Secretary, Anthony Ojukwu, in an interaction at a stakeholders’ dialogue on state police organised by the Rule of Law and Accountability Advocacy Centre in Abuja.
The PUNCH reported that bandits invaded the Kuriga area of the Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State about a week ago, shooting indiscriminately at people before whisking away the victims.
The incident has since triggered a national outrage, with Jama’atu Nasril Islam, Amnesty International, the Parents-Teachers Association of Nigeria, Nigeria Union of Teachers and the House of Representatives condemning the attack.
