As we dey talk for Naija level, wahala don land for Woro community inside Kwara State. Na the presidential aspirant wey dey represent PDP, Dr. Gbenga Hashim, na im come yarn say this recent killing na serious matter wey need proper attention, no be small talk.
For him statement wey he drop for weekend, he no sharp mouth, as he clear say the barbarity wey happen for Woro no be normal at all. E talk say this killing wey happen na lesson to all of us, make we no forget say we dey vulnerable for this country. “Condolence no go cut am this time, we need action!” na wetin Hashim dey talk so.
Im call on United Nations to come do investigation, because e dey vex say security people no act fast as e suppose be. E dey wonder why intelligence wey suppose save the day just dey fly like bird without anybody responding. “How dem fit allow people to die like that? Na only deranged men dey do this kind thing?” im quizzed.
Dr. Hashim dey vex on top air support matter too. E mention say the Nigerian Air Force dey around Wawa-New Bussa area wey fit land for Woro in less than 15 minutes, yet there was no air assistance when the attack dey happen. E dey ask, “How come dem no land to save lives? They say na because e too far, but I ask again, wetin happen?”
Im recount some past stories wey dem send soldiers go intervene for other countries like Sierra Leone and Liberia, but when our own people dey suffer, the soldiers no show face. “If dem fit fly across border to go save foreign president, wetin happen to our people wey dey die on top their own land?”
Dr. Hashim no just stop for how military dey operate. E use mouth shine light on top how many times dem don receive threat before this attack happen, e dey call for clarity. “Nigerians deserve to know why soldiers withdraw when dem suppose dey protect us!” e add.
As e dey talk, e also make am clear say this situation fit push community members to take law into their own hands, start to dey form vigilante group, and engage in ethnic profiling. E warn say, “If community no get help, dem go start to dey survive anyhow; na so instability dey start,”
Wetin im dey demand wey go fit help improve security na make Federal Government, Nigerian Air Force and Oga police for area provide clear account of wetin happen during the attack. “We need to strengthen rural areas with quick response and surveillance systems, if not, wahala go continue to dey grow,” e conclude.
Dr. Hashim warn say if we no take this matter serious, Kwara State fit turn to new battleground for banditry wey go affect agriculture and livelihoods – na serious matter! “No be normal say village fit dey under attack for hours without state response; this na national emergency!” Na wetin im don talk finish.
