Nigerians condemn mindless killing of Chintex in Kaduna
On social media, Nigerians have been speaking on the gruesome murder of Chintex in the northwest state.
Senator Shehu Sani wrote:
“The assassination of Kaduna Labour Party women leader Victoria Chintex stands unreservedly condemned. I call on the security agencies to meticulously investigate this cruel, brutal and targeted murder. My condolences to her family, friends and political associates.”
Rinu Oduala wrote:
“In 2019, it was Salome Abuh, PDP women leader, burnt alive in Kogi state. Today, it is Victoria Chintex, Labour Party women Leader who has been shot dead in Kaduna state.
“Yet, we complain about the representation of women in Nigerian politics. Where are the safe spaces?!”
Kenneth Okonkwo, a spokesman for Labour Party wrote:
“The Labour Party Women Leader in Kaura, Kaduna state, Victoria Chintex, was on Monday, 28th November, shot dead by suspected assassins. The APC governor of Kaduna state, El-Rufai, should be held responsible for her death as the CSO, if the killers are not apprehended immediately.”

Meanwhile, Obi has expressed shock over the killing of Chintex, describing it as mindless.
He also described her death as a huge loss to her immediate and extended family as well as members of the Labour Party.

Enemies fueling insecurity in Igboland to undermine Peter Obi, Ohanaeze says
On its part, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, has decried the renewed killings in several parts of the southeast zone, saying it was a grand design by enemies of the region to stoke insecurity in order to undermine the aspiration of Obi.
Secretary-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Ambassador Okey Emuchay, made the allegation on Tuesday, November 29 at the inauguration of the new executive members of the Abia state chapter of the group.
He said Ohanaeze was convinced that the killings that took place at Eha-Amufu in Enugu state, last week, and the rising insecurity in Imo and Anambra states, were deliberately targeted to undermine the zone.
