Obi’s Concerns Over Insecurity Escalation

Former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, expressed profound concern over the escalating violence, particularly within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

He emphasized the need for immediate and decisive action to curb the surge of insecurity.

Criticizing Past Administration and Campaign Promises

Obi lamented the deteriorating state of security in the country, attributing it to the previous administration led by President Muhammadu Buhari.

He pointed out that the current state of insecurity contradicts the campaign promises made by President Buhari, who pledged to address security, the economy, and corruption.

Reminder of Campaign Promises

Drawing attention to Vice President Shettima’s specific promise to handle security if the All Progressives Congress (APC) is elected, Obi underscored the urgency of fulfilling these campaign commitments.

He urged both Tinubu and Shettima to put in maximum effort, even if achieving 100% results might be challenging.

Foreign Trips Moratorium for Government Officials

In a bold suggestion, Peter Obi urged President Tinubu to halt all foreign trips by government officials until the insecurity issue is effectively addressed.

He argued that the current security situation in Nigeria would deter foreign investors and partners from considering investments in the country.

Call for Sincere Efforts to End Violence

Highlighting the gravity of the situation, Obi stressed the necessity of sincere efforts to bring an end to the spread of violence and insecurity in the nation.

He emphasized that addressing these challenges is paramount for any meaningful progress to occur.

In summary, Peter Obi’s call for urgent action serves as a poignant reminder to Nigeria’s leadership, urging them to fulfill their promises and take concrete steps to tackle the pressing issue of insecurity.
