(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/nexusnew/nigerdeltanews.ng/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114The Peoples Redemption Party, PRP, has described the incidents of mass looting across the country as warning signals of impending Armageddon<\/p>\n
The Acting National Publicity Secretary of the party, Muhammed Ishaq, in a statement issued on Monday, said recent reports of looting of trucks carrying food items on highways and cities are warning \u201csignals of the looming anarchy and turmoil\u201d which Nigeria faces in the foreseeable future if drastic measures are not taken to address the serious cost of living crisis facing majority of Nigerians.<\/p>\n
The party said the most recent of these reported incidents happened last Friday in Dogarawa, a suburb of Zaria in Kaduna State, where residents looted cartons of spaghetti from a parked truck.<\/p>\n
The PRP described the act as criminal.<\/p>\n
The party noted: \u201cYes, there is hunger and hardship in the land. Yes, there is poverty in the land, and the ruling elite have weaponised poverty, which has made citizens trade their votes for a pack or two of spaghetti as we saw in last year elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cDespite these, we in the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) caution the ordinary Nigerians not to allow their weaponisation of poverty make us criminals to the extent that we loot what does not belong to us.\u201d<\/p>\n
The party expressed deep concern over the escalating prices of essential commodities, which have made life unbearable for most Nigerians.<\/p>\n
It also urged government at all levels, particularly at the national and state levels, to promptly implement policies and interventions that would alleviate the suffering of the masses.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe PRP believes that the looting incident in Zaria is a symptom of a larger problem that requires collective effort and commitment from all stakeholders inclusive of our industrialists and the business community.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe call for a concerted effort to tackle the root causes of such incidents and to work towards a more just and inclusive society.\u201d<\/p>\n
