Michael Collins Ajereh, better known as Don Jazzy has called for state police following the killing of Christians at the St Francis Catholic Church, Owo, Ondo State by unknown gunmen.
Newsbreak.ng reported that some gunmen stormed the church premises during Sunday service, shooting and killing many.
Reacting to the news via his Twitter handle, Don Jazzy said that state policing should form one of the discussions ahead of the 2023 elections.
He tweeted, “My heart goes out to the relatives and friends of victims of the gruesome killings in Owo, Ondo state today. This is a crime against humanity which shouldn’t be tolerated in any civil society.
“To paraphrase Senator Adeyeye’s words in the red chamber a few years ago: Every crime is local and the solutions should be locally sourced. Be that as it may, I believe a strong political will would be needed to nip these crimes in the bud so the sanctity of lives and properties can be preserved hereafter.
“I also think the issue of state police should be back amongst talking points as the general elections approach.
“Despite the political ramifications of this as noted by critics, I think the safety of the Nigerian people should be given the utmost priority. Let’s all work together for a Nigeria that’s safe for all.”
My heart goes out to the relatives and friends of victims of the gruesome killings in Owo, Ondo state today. This is a crime against humanity which shouldn't be tolerated in any civil society. To paraphrase Senator Adeyeye's words in the red chamber a few years ago:
