Hence&comma; serious action and punishment must be taken to serve as a deterrent to future occurrences&period; This evil and wicked act has been happening for a long time&comma; particularly within that axis&comma; and the inadequacy of proper interrogation&comma; prosecution&comma; and punishment against the culprits is actually and precisely the motivating factor that allows the menace to repeat itself to the extent that the perpetrators are simply and willingly carrying out the damages with pride and with no fear or apprehension of punishment because the deserving punishment is rarely attached to such proven killings&period; &lpar;The assassination of Major General Ibrahim Alkali within the same axis&comma; as well as the massive killing of Kano people in Edo State&comma; are two clear pieces of evidence&period;&rpar;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The recent killing was believed to have been carried out deliberately with a hidden mission because the vehicle carrying the victims belonged to ABU &lpar;Ahmadu Bello University&rpar;

These people ought to remember that their kinsmen are everywhere within various states of the federation&comma; doing their normal businesses&comma; moving around freely&comma; peacefully hosted and accommodated with kindness and generosity&comma; rather than their repulsive hostilities against their fellow citizens&period; Even in Zaria&comma; where these victims came from&comma; there is a big area called Unguwar Mangu where the inhabitants are predominantly from Mangu and some parts of Plateau State&comma; and for more than 40 years&comma; they have been living quietly and peacefully&comma; enjoying many rights and privileges—most importantly&comma; security and welfare—by the government and good people of Zaria&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<&excl;-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v&period;
