A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Joe Igbokwe, on Thursday said those who lost elections are using bandits to kill Nigerians in the North.
Igbokwe said election losers are using bandits to score cheap political points.
Posting on his Facebook page, the APC chieftain warned of the dangers of sacrificing Nigerians for elections.
He wrote: “Election losers are employing bandits to kill Nigerians in the North to score cheap political points. Sacrificing Nigerians for election purposes will boomerang.
“Those sponsoring the banditry may be the victims in the fullness of time.”
This comes amid the bickering between the Office of the National Security Adviser under the leadership of Nuhu Ribadu and former governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai.
El-Rufai had accused ONSA under Ribadu of paying ransom to bandits in the North.
But ONSA dismissed these claims as falsehood which should be disregarded.
The North has been a theatre for bandits and terrorists.
