DAILY POST reports that Amnesty International , in a statement on Tuesday by its acting director, Isa Sanusi, called on the Nigerian government to take urgent steps to end widespread killings in Nigeria.
Reacting to the report, APC, in a statement on Wednesday, accused the organisation of playing a double standard in cases involving underdeveloped nations. The statement reads: “Amnesty International is known for stoking internal conflict and citizen antagonism in developing nations through weaponisation and accentuation of local situations to achieve its sinister objectives while hypocritically looking the other way when similar incidents occur in developed nations, especially in the Western world.
“In the first 150 days of 2023, America has recorded 263 mass shootings, with hundreds of deaths, yet Amnesty International has not been on the mountaintop to accuse US government of dereliction of duty.
