Human rights activist and lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has reacted to the attack on worshippers at the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) in Eruku, Kwara State.
Naijaonpoint reports that gunmen had invaded the church during a live programme.
At least three people were reportedly killed, several others injured, and an unspecified number abducted.
Speaking on the development via a statement, Adeyanju lamented that the daily murder of Nigerians is beyond depressing.
He criticised security agencies for their perceived negligence, warning that the country was descending into anarchy due to the government’s inaction.
The lawyer called on President Bola Tinubu to take decisive steps to address the worsening insecurity or resign from office.
He said, “The daily killings of Nigerians is beyond depressing. Most recently, the gunmen attack at Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) in Eruku, Kwara State, killing at least two people, injuring many and abducting others. An attack on a place of worship is an indication of the terrifying reality that no one is safe in this country.
“The fact that this particular attack occurred very close to a police station shows government inaction and unwillingness to protect its citizens.
“President Tinubu must take decisive actions on insecurity or resign.”
The incident has added to a growing list of violent attacks across Nigeria, with communities, religious centres, and schools frequently targeted by armed groups despite repeated assurances from authorities that security remains a top priority.
