Edo Killings: Akpabio demands justice to assuage pains

Published on March 31, 2025 at 01:38 PM

President of the Nigerian Senate, Godswill Akpabio has demanded for justice for those who were gruesomely killed in Uromi, Edo State on Thursday last week, describing the killing of travelers as senseless and unacceptable.

He reacted in a statement made available to journalists on Monday, insisting that such lawlessness should have no place in society.

It was recalled that 16 travellers who are of northern origins were murdered in Uromi, Edo State in the South South Nigeria by suspected mob.

Akpabio’s statement released by his Special Assistant on Media, Jackson Udom was among the swell of reactions trailing the killing of travelers.

The statement said: “I am deeply saddened and disturbed by the gruesome murder of 16 travellers in Edo State. This senseless act of violence is unacceptable and has no place in our society.

“I condemn in very strong terms this heinous crime and I urge the relevant authorities to conduct a thorough investigation and ensure that the perpetrators of this barbaric act are brought to book and held accountable for their actions.

Akpabio urged Nigerians to always work towards uniting the nation and promoting peace at all times, stressing that such dastardly act should not be tolerated for any reason anywhere in the country.

“My heartfelt condolences go to the families of the victims, the government and people of Edo State, and all those affected by this needless act, and pray that God grants the departed peaceful rest, and the loved ones they left behind, the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.
