Reps urge Tinubu to prioritise Nigerians’ security

 

Opposition lawmakers in the House of Representatives have called on President Bola Tinubu to prioritise the security of lives and property better than what the administration of Muhammadu Buhari did in eight years.

Under the immediate past administration, insurgency, kidnapping and all manner of criminality reached an all-time high, prompting the international community to issue several travel advisories, warning their citizens to steer clear of troubled spots in Nigeria.

Since the inauguration of Tinubu as President, kidnapping for ransom has witnessed a spike, particularly in the Federal Capital Territory, prompting many Nigerians to call on the Minister, Nyesom Wike, to put on his thinking cap to make the territory safer for all.

A member of the House and Chairman, Committee on Judiciary, Oluwole Oke, lamented that though insecurity was not peculiar to Nigeria, the situation in the country was becoming too worrisome for everyone who wished the nation well.
