A clergyman of the Evangelical Church of Winning All, ECWA, Reverend Zakariya, has been killed by unknown gunmen suspected to be herdsmen in Nasarawa State.
Zakariya was killed over the week inside his farm by yet-to-be-identified assailants in Obi Local Government Area of the state.
His relative, who gave his name as Uncanny Sam, announced the death of the clergyman, via hia twitter.
He said the late Zakariya will be buried on Tuesday.
The nephew of the murdered pastor in a series of tweets called on the Federal Government and Nasarawa State Governor, Tanko Al-Makura, to find the killers of his uncle.
“All I want is justice to be done. Nasarawa State and the Federal Government must find the killers of my uncle. Whoever is close to Governor Al-Makura of Nasarawa State should please inform him that we demand the perpetrators should be brought to book.
The nephew further stated that herdsmen in the state usually kill people for no reason, adding that killing has become a hobby for herdsmen in the state.
“The biggest question is: who will defend us from these marauding beasts? This killing must be stopped. Your government (Al-Makura) vows to secure our land but we have never been this insecure. Security is one of your cardinal objectives but the security in our land today is unprecedented,” Zakariya’s nephew said on Twitter.
It is well…
