Saludo is seriously building another Airport in Anambra?😳

Yes or No?

Amnesty International strongly condemns the killing of 12 people in a horrific midnight attack on Ngbra-Zongo village of Bassa LGA in Plateau State. Ten people are now receiving treatment for gunshot wounds. The victims include pregnant women and children. Entire families were locked up in rooms of their homes and slaughtered one by one. The utter failure of President Bola Tinubu’s government to address widespread insecurity is costing lives. While the government of Tinubu is claiming to be tackling the endemic security crisis, the death toll tells a different story. Plateau state is increasingly becoming unsafe, with attacks on both rural and urban communities forcing people to be living in constant fear of the next attack. Many communities are dotted with mass graves of people killed by gunmen on rampage. The Nigerian authorities have failed the people of Plateau State again and again. Frequent attacks by gunmen have deprived thousands of people of their rights to life, physical integrity, liberty, freedom of movement and access to livelihoods. President Bola Tinubu’s government must do more to end these attacks and ensure that the suspected perpetrators are brought to justice. Victims and survivors must be given adequate reparation.
