The House urged the inspector-general of police (IGP) and the Kaduna State commissioner of police to ensure the speedy delivery of justice in the case and bring the assailants to book.

This was sequel to adoption of a motion moved by Hon. Beni Lar (PDP, Plateau) at plenary yesterday.

Moving the motion, Lar said on October 18, 2023, Miss Chalya Grace Silas, a National Youth Service Corps member deployed to Kaduna State, was brutally murdered while jogging in Barnawa, Kaduna South local government area.

She also noted that the late Miss Silas hailed from Tabat, in Langtang North federal constituency, Plateau State and was a Rehabilitation Sciences graduate from the University of Jos.

The lawmaker said the corps member tragically died in the hands of her assailants while undertaking the mandatory one-year, National Youth Service Corps Service in Kaduna State.

According to her, the tragic incident is one of numerous murders of innocent girls and women nationwide, with perpetrators often unaccounted for or brought to justice.

“Worried that the safety and security of the girl child is no longer guaranteed, given the continued liberty and freedom enjoyed by these heinous assailants, who still roam the streets preying on their next victim.

“Acknowledged that prompt justice in this case would deter potential perpetrators, thereby ensuring a safer environment for Nigerian children and residents.

“Aware that delaying justice in this case would be equivalent to denying justice to the victims’ families and loved ones, as well as the entire nation.

“Cognizant that if nothing is done to stop the continuous attacks, rape, and murder of young girls and women, it would render the country unsafe to live,” Lar added.
