The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to improve the poor security situation in the country in 2022, reminding him that this was the primary reason the majority of Nigerians voted him into power in 2015.
The forum told the president and his security chiefs that Nigerians want to feel safe and secure anywhere in their country from this year on.
The National Publicity Secretary of the ACF, Emmanuel Yawe, who stated this in an interview with Saturday Tribune, also charged governors and local government chairmen to support the Federal Government by employing means of tackling the menace of bandits, kidnappers and other criminal elements.
Yawe said: “It behoves the president to secure the nation from clutches of Boko Haram insurgents, kidnappers, cattle rustlers, bandits armed robbers, etc.
“We want to see that those behind these dastardly acts are apprehended and prosecuted. This is the only way the security situation will change. If those behind these crimes are allowed to go scot-free, when will the insecurity in our land disappear?
“Everybody must join hands to ensure that the security challenges are surmounted in 2022. Many farmers have been killed. Many farmers have abandoned their farms. Food scarcity looms. Our children’s education is being threatened. Our hospitals have been deserted. Government at all levels must act.”
