ACF Urges Tinubu To Eliminate Jos, Kaduna Terrorists Now

The apex northern socio-cultural organisation, Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to urgently stamp out terrorist activities across the country or criminals will stop Nigerians.

Speaking with LEADERSHIP over the killings in Anguwan Rukuba Area of Jos, Plateau and Kahir community in Kagarko Local Government Area of Kaduna state, ACF National Publicity Secretary, Prof. T. A. Muhammad-Baba, said it was high time the country puts everything aside and fights insecurity head long.

ACF while condemning the attacks described the killings as unfortunate and disheartening.

According to the forum, “The latest news about the tragic attack in Plateau State leading to the loss of lives, is very, very unfortunate, very disheartening and very discouraging. Only last week or so, the ACF issued a notice drawing the attention of the government to the fact that the insecurity situation is not improving at all, at all. And we are very sad to observe that this is happening right before our eyes.

“What the ACF is afraid of is, what the ACF has warned about is what is taking place. And it is high time we put everything aside as a nation and fight this insecurity scourge. As we have said, it is crippling the country and it’s time to put everything away and fight it headlong. And we condole with the families of those who have lost their lives. But more importantly, we call on government to see this as a direct challenge to national security, a direct challenge to the authority of the government. And the government must prevail and everything must be done to stamp out these terrorist activities in this country or the terrorist activities will stop us,” the forum maintained.
