 Falana to FG: Tackle Killings, Insecurity Nationwide


Prominent human rights lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, has urged the Federal Government to urgently address the widespread killings and abductions across the country, particularly in Benue and Plateau States.


Falana, who chairs the Alliance on Surviving COVID-19 and Beyond (ASCAB), described the ongoing violence by armed herders and gunmen as both unacceptable and preventable.


While commending the swift arrest of suspects linked to the recent Uromi killings in Edo State and the prompt intervention by Governor Monday Okpebholo, Falana criticized the lack of similar urgency in other regions experiencing repeated attacks.


He stressed the Federal Government’s constitutional duty to protect lives and called for the immediate prosecution of suspects already in custody, warning against delayed justice.


Falana questioned why security forces, often deployed en masse during elections, are not similarly mobilized to prevent violence in vulnerable communities.


He also urged state governments to promote intelligence-sharing between citizens and security agencies, emphasizing that public trust and cooperation are essential to improving national security.


Falana’s statement reflects mounting public concern over insecurity and a growing demand for coordinated, people-centered solutions to protect lives across Nigeria.
