Plateau Massacre: Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba Condoles with Plateau State Government

....Says incident indicates loss of confidence in security apparatus and judiciary

Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba has extended his condolences to the families affected by the recent Plateau jungle justice incident, where a mob took the law into their own hands in Bokkos Local government area (LGA), which resulted in over 52 deaths and numerous injuries.

He said this tragic event is a stark reminder of the breakdown of societal norms and the erosion of trust in our security apparatus and judiciary. "The increasing reliance on jungle justice is a direct result of citizens' loss of confidence in the security agencies and the judiciary. When people feel that the system has failed them, they resort to extrajudicial measures, undermining the rule of law and perpetuating a cycle of violence."

Hon. Nwajiuba attributes this breakdown to security outfits lacking intelligence and focus, due to non commitment of the Tinubu's administration to the basic human existence. He stressed that due to high cost of commodities in the market today the breakdown of societal norms have become inevitable to a large extent.

He however said that the current administration's priorities have turned basic human existence into an expensive commodity, leaving citizens feeling vulnerable and disenfranchised.

Furthermore, he said that the rising cost of living has further exacerbated the situation, pushing people to the edge. Hon. Nwajiuba's concerns echo the sentiments of many Nigerians who are struggling to make ends meet.

Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba's condemnation of the Plateau jungle justice incident serves as a wake-up call for the government to reevaluate its priorities and work towards creating a safer, more just society for all Nigerians. By addressing the root causes of these issues and implementing effective security measures, we can begin to rebuild trust in our institutions and restore societal norms.

Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba is a Nigerian politician and lawyer who has served as the Minister of State for Education. He has previously served as the Chairman of TETFund Board of Trustees and has been a vocal advocate for education and security reforms in Nigeria.
