Kaduna killings: Half naked women barricade governor's convoy

                        
Following the recent killing of over 50 persons in Kaduna state, women in Fadan Karshi in Sanga local government in Kaduna yesterday protested half naked when the governor of the state, Mukhtar Yero, came to pay them a condolence visit, while accusing the state government of neglecting the lives and properties of its people.

 The half-nude women, dressed in black attire, booed and threw objects at the long convoy of the governor in Fadan Karshi, Sanga local government area.

The women were angry that after not less than seven attacks on their villages, in which not less than 300 villagers were killed since last July, the governor did not visit the place until a few weeks to the primary elections.

Mr Bezard Wuyah, national president of Ninzom Progressive Youths in the local government told reporters in Kaduna about the visit of the governor to Karshin Daji and Fadan Karshi.

“The governor came with hundreds of soldiers, policemen, Roads Safety Corps, SSS, even with a detachment of Prison Guards. It was more of an invasion, not a condolence visit. Our mothers and sisters who were expecting a sober, caring governor were furious when they saw that it was as a form of intimidation against them so they don’t bare their minds on the negligence they had suffered since gunmen sacked their villages and rendered them homeless? That was why they were protesting and asking that the governor kills them so that they die and rest. They refused to be cowed,” he said.
