Former aviation minister and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Femi Fani-Kayode, says he insists that the killing of six herder family members in Osun is wrong. He wrote: “I make no apology for saying it was wrong to kill an innocent & defenceless Fulani family of 6 in Osun. I support the killing of terrorists (Fulani or otherwise) but I refuse to support the killing of innocent& defenceless people, including women & children, regardless of their tribe or faith and whether they are Fulani, Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Ijaw or anything else. “The killing of innocents can never be described or deemed as a heroic act.”Recall that gunmen killed six people, all from the same family, in the early hours of Sunday in Osun State, Nigeria. The Osun State government has promised swift action on the matter to bring justice.
