Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose on Wednesday called on the international community to step in and help unravel the mystery of the unending mindless killings in Nigeria.

He claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration is not swift and practical in its handling of the twin menace of Boko Haram and herdsmen attacks in Nigeria as he described Mr President’s visit to troubled areas as belated and political.

”The killings in Benue State is particularly worrisome. Mr President is merely using a cosmetic approach. It is not believable that Nigerian soldiers cannot tackle the developments that have claimed lives and unsettled communities” Fayose lamented.

He called on President Buhari to play his roles as the Commander in Chief of the armed forces and justify the mandate given him by the people.

‘The Ekiti State governor also claimed that the incessant killings is an issue of internal aggressors and not external and that therefore, President Buhari should be able to get to its root.
