Let there be a graveyard of victims of mindless killings near Aso Rock− Shehu Sani

SHEHU Sani, senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District at the National Assembly says only when a graveyard for victims of mindless killings is located in the Three Arms Zone, Abuja that those in the position authority will feel the pains of their relatives.

Sani, apparently reacting to the killing of people in two local governments in Plateau State on Saturday by suspected herdsmen, twitted on Tuesday that “Executive, Legislators and the Judiciary can feel the pains of the helpless widows and orphans we failed to protect.”
