Release<\/strong>
\nBy Luka Binniyat<\/strong>, National Public Relations Officer, SOKAPU.
\nThis morning, around 6am, the grieving Fanstwam natives of Zipak, a semi-urban town in Fanstwam Chiefdom, Jemaa LGA in Southern Kaduna, were once again forced to flee for dear lives, after armed Fulani militia sprung from nearby bushes and started shooting.
\nFortunately, the youths of the community resisted the invaders and they fled back without any harm to the distraught natives who were grieving the killing of 10 members of the town slained the previous evening.
\nThe militia had crept into the town around on 7pm, yesterday, Friday, 24th July, 2020 and rained bullets on the peaceful community.
\nThough Zipak is just about two kilometers from the heart of Kafanchan where there is presence of a cantonment of the Army, Police and Paramilitary units, the attacking Militia had a field day.
\nAfter looting and vandalising the town, they burnt down part of it and gruesomely murdered the following:
\n1) Joel Cephas, 5 yrs
\n2) Kingsley Raphael, 28
\n3) Katung kantiock 60
\n4) Luka Garba 75
\n5) Victor Ishaya 22
\n6) Madam Dakaci 52
\n7) Kuyet Yayock 25
\n8) Cecelia Audu 65
\n9) Matina Dauda 70
\n10) Yanasan Dauda 70
\nThe following were fatally wounded:
\nMrs Jonathan Ishaya; Marthins Agang; Kassan Duniya; Jenifer Nicodemus and 5 years old Joel Cephas.
\nThe Governor of Kaduna state immediately imposed a 24 hour curfew over the entire Jemmaa LGA.
\nIt was under the curfew that the Fulani militia returned this morning, to wreck more havoc until the valiant youths of the community, with very crude weapons, repelled the cowards.
\nAlso, as it rained around 8pm, Thursday, 23rd July 2020 at Agwala Magayaki of Doka Avong, Kajuru LGA in Southern Kaduna, armed Fulani militia took advantage of the darkness and torrential rain and attacked the village for the second time in a month, leaving 6 persons dead and two fatally wounded.
\nThose killed in Kajuru are:
\nJohn Mallam, 80; Albarka Mallam, 85; Jumare Sule, 76.
\nThe rest are:
\nHannatu Garba 55; Thaddeus Albarka, 32
\nLuvinus Danmori, 52
\nDaniel Mukadas,70.
\nThe fatally injured are Danmori Sule
\nAlheri Mandela.
\nIt could be recalled that on the 20th June, 2020, the same village was invaded by the Fulani militia, some known by the villagers, and 7 persons were killed.
\nOn the 22nd, July 2020, as it rained on Kizachi-Chawai, a far removed village bounded by hills, in Chawai chiefdom, Kauru LGA in Southern Kaduna, Fulani militia broke into homes, and attacked villagers with knives, daggers and matchetes.
\nThe following people were killed:
\n1) Kefas Monday, 17yrs
\n2) Lydia Monday,.14yrs
\n3) Jummai, 9yrs
\n4) Giwa Thomas,.14yrs
\n5) Living Yohanna, 27yrs.
\nMonday Ibrahim, 45 Alheri Dauda 13,
\nwere seriously injured.
\nThis brings to a total of 23, harmless Southern Kaduna natives killed by Fulani in the past 72 hours.
\nThis is apart from over 40 murdered victims of Fulani militia in Kaura and Zangon Kataf, less than a week earlier.
\nThese and several others have created a humanitarian crisis in Chikun, Zangon Kataf, Kaura and Kajuru LGAs as thousands of IDPs can barely survive hunger, sickness and various trauma.
\nIt is therefore totally untrue that the mass murder of our people is an outcome of clashes between criminal gangs as portrayed by President Mohammed Buhari, through his Spokesman, Shehu Garba.
\nOur victims are not members of criminal gangs, but mostly kids, women and the aged.
\nThe so-called formidable security arrangement he claimed to be in place in Southern Kaduna is at best, a ruse and a mirage, going by increasing casualties and the impunity of the Fulani armed men.
\nWe are under a genocidal campaign by Fulani Militia, who have become sacred cows with President Buhari and Governor Nasir El-rufai, who are both Fulani, twisting the truth to say the Fulani are on “reprisals.”
\nWe are therefore calling on the Federal and Kaduna state authorities to do the right things and stop the propaganda against us.
\nThey should ameliorate the suffering of our people and return lives to normalcy.
\nThe International Community and all men and women of conscience should also intervene in the suffering of our people who are under a porgrom that the state seems to be doing very little to stop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
