The Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has condemned the killing of Mrs Victoria Chimtex, the party’s Women Leader in Kaduna State.
Chimtex was murdered by unknown gunmen at her residence in the Kaura local government area of Kaduna State on Monday.
Also, her husband was seriously wounded in the attack.
While reacting to the sad incident in a thread of tweets on his Twitter handle, Obi said the death of Chimex and other Nigerians were due to the collapse of the country’s security system.
He promised to prioritize the security of lives and property if elected as the country’s president next year.
He tweeted: “I am shocked by the mindless killing of Mrs. Victoria Chintex, the Labour Party’s women leader in Kaura, Kaduna State, by yet-to-be-identified gunmen. Her death is a huge loss to her immediate and extended family, and to our Labour Party. She lives on in our hearts.
“Her killing and the loss of many innocent lives across the nation to gunmen and terrorists are the reason why I must prioritize the war against insecurity as my first task in office. We must not allow the waste of human lives in Nigeria under any guise.”
