A Coalition of Arewa Civil Society Organisations, CACSO, has called on the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Usman Alkali-Baba, to order investigation into the killing of PDP stalwart, Ahmed Gulak, who was murdered by unknown gunmen in Imo State.
The coalition, in statement signed on Sunday by its Covener and General-Secretary, Dr. Haruna Jagindi and Amb. Danjuma Shetima, also called on the IGP to look into the arrest of Imo governorship aspirant, Uche Nwosu, who according to them was unlawfully whisked away by masked security operatives.
Some the group’s prayers before the IGP include the unearthing of, “the true identity of those that assassinated Honourable Ahmed Gulak should be revealed including their sponsors and their motives, because report confirms that Gulak was not the only occupant of the vehicle when he was assassinated.
“That the identity of those behind unknown gunmen should be revealed to Nigerians to help take precautions.
“That adequate sanctions should be meted out to those that had anything to do with this ugly situation no matter how little their participation maybe.”
In the case of Mr Nwosu’s abduction, the group sought the IGP to investigate the motive behind the abduction and the findings public.
Others prayers included the identication of those who sanctioned the operation, whether within the police hierarchy or among notable politicians.
