“The APC Yari’s camp is again constrained to voice out its earlier fear of the state being turned into a ‘political war theatre’ where thugs control the scene of political affairs.
“The attack which was one of the many has confirmed the fears that all will not be well on the political scene in the near future if the security agencies refuse to contain it now.
“Liman explained that such issues if not properly respond to by the appropriate authorities could escalate in to a full blown crisis that will spell doom for the larger society”, He said.
Liman therefore called on the Security agencies in the state to live above board in the onerous task of ensuring a crime – free Zamfara. He stressing that nobody can surpress of the voice of the opposition in a democratic dispensation no
matter how he tries it.
When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, SP Muhammad Shehu declined to comment on the matter.
