Peter Obi expresses concern over insecurity

Former Governor of Anambra State and Labour Party Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi has expressed concern over high rate of kidnapping, security and poverty currently being experienced in the country.
The former Governor on his official Facebook page has called for an urgent action to tackle the menace.
“As terror attacks, banditry, kidnappings and violence continue to rage through the country, it is more concerning now with the surge of violence spreading through the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja”
“The recent killings of two abducted young girls in Abuja makes it more depressing and urgent. It is now time for we the leaders, to take all forms of serious measures to tackle the situation.”
He noted that “ It is unfortunate that President Muhammadu Buhari, in 2015, campaigned and won the elections on three items; Security, Economy and Corruption (SEC). After his Eight years in office, the situation has worsened in all three areas”.
According to him, “The present administration, on assuming office, promised to deal decisively with the same situation – Security, Economy and Corruption,Today, however, the situation is getting even worse than ever”
“At the Annual General Conference of the Nigerian Bar Association held in Lagos in August 2022, the then Vice Presidential Candidate, Sen Kashim Shettima categorically stated that if APC is elected, he as Vice President would be incharge of security, while the President as an expert in economy would handle the economy. Nigerians therefore now implore them to fulfil their campaign promises” he added.
Mr. Peter Obi Noted that “Even if they do not achieve 100% results, we want to see 100% effort. It is now time to stop all forms of foreign trips from people in government, until we deal with the ugly situation facing us at home. No foreign investor or partner will like to invest in Nigeria, with the situation we now find ourselves in. We must make sincere efforts to end the spread of violence and insecurity in our nation, in order to make any meaningful progress”.
