Ndume

The lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District, Ali Ndume, says Boko Haram terrorists are blind to faith, stressing that they attack Christians, Muslims as well as those who don’t believe in either of the two religions.
The Senator urged Nigerians, particularly the media, to avoid the temptation of profiling victims of the terror gang’s atrocities and unite to defeat the insurgents.

Ndume made the appeal in a statement he issued in Abuja on Wednesday.

The Federal lawmaker was reacting to reports of weekend attacks in Ngoshe village, Gwoza Local Government Area and Mussa community in Askira-Uba Local Government Areas of Borno State.

DAILY POST recalls that in the two separate incidents, the insurgents killed five farmers in Ngoshe and Mussa villages over the weekend.

It was gathered that of those killed, two were Muslims in Ngoshe while the three killed in Mussa were Christians.

“It is unethical and unconscionable for any media outlet to drive the narrative that Christians are the targets of these attacks by the terror group in Borno, or anywhere in the North Eastern part of Nigeria.

“The forces behind these mindless killings are blind to faith and tribe. We should avoid this dangerous profiling which can distract us. It has the tendency of doing us more harm,” he said.
