Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has said that the state of security in Nigeria is so bad that it is only President Muhammadu Buhari that has not been kidnapped.
According to him, dignitaries, including senators, have been kidnapped.
He said this during a town hall meeting on on Channels Television on Sunday, noting that no one was safe.
“Senator have been kidnapped. It’s only left for President to be kidnapped. So, nobody is safe.”
He said on how he will tackle insecurity:
“for our men and women in the security, we will ensure they are motivated and supported and properly insured and make sure they are confident their families are protected in case something happens to them. All procurement in the Military and other sectors must be transparent. It must be measurable and visible. The days of doing things hidden are gone.
“We need to involve every community in Nigeria in security where each community secures their community and shares information with other communities.
“We have to be alive for the constitution to be amended, not wait for all of us to be dead before doing something. I will use my powers as the President and Commander-in-Chief to secure Nigeria as quickly as possible,”
