The Senator representing the Southern Kaduna, Sunday Mashall Katung, has condemned the killing of Raymond Timothy Adai, a councilorship candidate in the Kaduna State local government election.
Ada was reportedly killed alongside his younger brother, James Timothy.
The senator condemned the killing in a statement he issued on Monday.
“Mr Adai, a councillorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and his younger brother were attacked and killed on Sunday evening, 29th September 2024, while on their way back from a political campaign in Kizachi Village of Pari Ward.
“More worrisome is the fact that Mr Timothy left behind a pregnant wife and three children.
“The government’s primary responsibility is the security and welfare of its people; consequently, I wish to once again reiterate my previous call on the Government of Kaduna State to thoroughly investigate and address these recurrent security challenges in our state, especially in Kauru Local Government, to ensure that our citizens are well protected.
“The only way we can avenge this gruesome murder is by ensuring that the perpetrators are found and made to face the consequences of their actions.
“I extend my deepest condolences to Mr Raymond’s wife, his children, the entire Timothy family, the people of Pari Ward, and the entire Kauru Local Government on this great loss.
“I stand in solidarity with their family while praying for the peaceful repose of the souls of our brothers,” parts of the statement read.
