The President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government has been accused by popular legal practitioner and human rights activist of condoning lawlessness and impunity, particularly in the areas of extra judicial killings.
Speaking on Channels Television programme, 'Sunday Politics', Nigerian Lawyer and popular Lagos-based human rights activist, Femi Falana (SAN), has accused the President Muhammadu-led Federal Government of condoning lawlessness and impunity, particularly in the areas of extra judicial killings.
The Senior Advocate said that the government of an independent African nation like Nigeria cannot afford to overlook the killing and mass burial of 347 of its citizens; that that is only possible in a colonial regime. He also condemned the killing of over 500 people in Benue and Taraba states by Fulani Herdsmen.
The legal practitioner and activist also said that President Buhari promised to fight both corruption and impunity, adding that the president had earlier made it clear that he is fighting corruption, but nothing has been so far done concerning impunity.
