... Nasarawa gov summons emergency security meeting

Nasarawa State governor, Abdullahi Sule, has summoned a security meeting over the killing of Deborah Samuel where he cautioned against protest in the state.

The governor, who condemned the killing of the student, described it as an act against humanity.

Sule, in his opening remarks at the meeting held at the Government House, Lafia said the federal and Sokoto State governments were taking steps to address the matter.

The governor said his administration had taken steps to protect the people and to ensure similar things did not happen in the state.

The governor said, among the reasons for calling the security meeting, was to sympathize with the families of the late Deborah Samuel, the Christian community and humanity as a whole.

He appealed to leaders of CAN in the state not to join the protest because of the fragile nature of Nasarawa State and the fear that hoodlums might eventually hijack the peaceful protest to throw the state into anarchy.
