The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ahmed Wase, on Wednesday, lamented that the Executive arm of the Federal Government does not recognise and implement resolutions passed by the parliament, particularly on the security crises in different parts of Nigeria.

Wase made this known during the debate on a motion of urgent public importance moved by Solomon Maren from Plateau State on the recent kidnapping of some traditional rulers from his constituency.

The Deputy Speaker, who lamented the killings and kidnappings across the country, said, “I beg to speak on this particular issue based on the barbaric acts happening in Plateau. When Honourable Maren came to me about this motion, I told him, ‘What is happening in your constituency, compared to my own constituency…and I showed him the numbers of the videos and the pictures in my constituency.’

“I presented three motions so far to this floor on this particular matter and the House has also taken very fast resolutions as to what it would take to resolve the matter. But unfortunately, we are moving into the raining season now and there is virtually not one or two days passed in my constituency without kidnapping and taking of ransom from villagers who go out to suffer to make their living, taking ransom not less than N10m. I am so pained.

Wase added, “I want to tell you, Mr Speaker, and tell the House that as of today, I have lost people even after these kidnappers take money. I have lost close to five people. These kidnappers take the demanded ransom and then kill the people. “These kidnappings take place where you have a small security presence; they will go there, shoot sporadically and abduct people and go away. Not more than three to four days ago, we lost close to a thousand cows in my own constituency. Kidnappers came, rustled the cows from their cages and ran away with them, and the villagers and our locals left.
