Yet again, we are faced with another great loss of innocent
lives at the hands of terrorists in Nigeria. It’s baffling and heart breaking
that scores have been feared dead on a Monday morning attack in Nyanya overhead
bridge in the outskirt of Abuja; the growing insecurity which has spanned over
3 years unabated has threatened the unity of the nation, and weaken our
socio-economic and political strength. It is unfortunate that in the face of
this growing insurgencies, the Federal Government has been unable to overcome
the challenge and provide adequate and holistic approach to security for the
lives and properties of Nigerians?
Beyond usual promises and consolations to the masses, the
Federal Government should improvise and adopt advanced security measures and
counter terrorism strategies that can provide adequate security in the nation.
There is an urgent need for Political cooperation across the board. I call on
Mr President to call a joint meeting of leaders from all political divides ,
religious and opinion leaders to deliberate on the nation’s security plight.
Enough of rhetorics and workshop or summit on security matter. What we need now
is action and commitment. It is my believe that for the sake of the innocent
lives our political resolve must be as strong as the military option.
I sympathize with the families of those affected and pray
Almighty Allah comfort them.
