Nigeria sliding into dangerous crisis over rising extrajudicial killings - CHRICED

The Resource Centre for Human Rights and Civic Education (CHRICED) has warned that Nigeria is sliding into a dangerous crisis due to the rising cases of extrajudicial killings involving security operatives. Recent incidents, including the killing of a National Youth Service Corps member in Abuja and the shooting of a civilian in Delta State, highlight a troubling pattern of state violence. CHRICED calls on the Federal Government to treat these cases as urgent public interest matters and ensure independent and transparent investigations.
