Senator Lawal Usman, representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, has strongly condemned the recent killing of travelers from northern Nigeria in Uromi, Edo State.

He urged security agencies to conduct a swift and transparent investigation to bring the perpetrators to justice.

Describing the attack as “barbaric and senseless,” Usman called on the Federal Government, the Edo State Government, and law enforcement agencies to take immediate action to prevent further violence.

He also appealed to community leaders to focus on dialogue, reconciliation, and peace-building efforts to prevent ethnic tensions from escalating.

The senator urged northern leaders and Nigerians at large to remain calm and resist any calls for retaliation.

“We must resist any attempt to exploit this tragedy to sow division or incite reprisal attacks. Nigeria’s strength lies in our diversity, and we must reaffirm our commitment to tolerance, mutual respect, and the sanctity of human life,” he said.

Usman extended his condolences to the families of the victims, describing their loss as a “collective tragedy” and praying for their strength in this difficult time.
