PRP Demands Security Enhancements and Miner Death Inquiry
The Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) has urged the Nigerian government to intensify security efforts in response to rising insecurity, particularly in the North-Central and North-West regions. In a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Comrade Muhammed Ishaq, the party expressed alarm over the deaths of 37 miners in Minna, Niger State, who reportedly died while in the custody of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).
The PRP called for an independent commission of inquiry to investigate the circumstances surrounding these deaths and to hold accountable those responsible. Additionally, the party highlighted the abduction of residents from Dekara community in Borgu Local Government Area since August, emphasizing the need for greater accountability within the security architecture.
The PRP reiterated its commitment to justice, good governance, and the protection of lives and property in affected communities.
