Shock and sadness have once again hit Nigeria after a deadly attack in Plateau State left several residents dead, including innocent families caught in the violence.

The former minister reacted on her official X account on Tuesday, March 31, 2026, expressing deep anger and sorrow over the continuous killings in Nigeria.
In her emotional post, Ezekwesili accused leaders of focusing on celebrations and political activities while citizens are dying in pain. She directly criticized the government of President Bola Tinubu, saying the country’s leadership has failed in its responsibility to protect lives.
