  Peter Obi's Statement About The Killings In Edo State The recent reports regarding the murders of Northern travelers in Uromi, located in the Esan North-East Local Government Area of Edo State, are profoundly distressing. Such acts of violence have become a tragic norm in our deteriorating society. These abhorrent actions have no place in our community now, just as they did not in the past. Every Nigerian, irrespective of their ethnic or regional identity, deserves the right to travel freely and safely throughout our country. It has been reported that these individuals were accused of kidnapping, which led to their violent deaths at the hands of a mob. While it is essential to address security issues and combat criminal behavior, turning to extrajudicial actions only weakens the rule of law and perpetuates a cycle of violence. I commend the government for denouncing this incident and for launching an investigation. Moreover, it is imperative that authorities also focus on the kil...
