Zamfara Killings: Saraki Directs Committee On Security To Conduct Assessment

President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has directed the Senate Ad-Hoc Committee on Security, to visit Zamfara and conduct an on-the-spot assessment of the killings that recently occurred in the State.

In a tweet on his personal @BukolaSaraki handle, Saraki said:

“I have directed the Senate Ad-Hoc Committee on Security to visit Zamfara on Tuesday in order to get a first-hand assessment of the security situation in the state and report back to plenary.”

Recall that in November 2017, the Senate set up an Ad-hoc Committee on the Review of Security Infrastructure in Nigeria, which is Chaired by Senator Ahmed Lawan, the Senate Majority Leader. Since then, the Committee has visited Benue following the New Year killings, and is now set to visit Zamfara to asses the situation in the State.
