FORMER Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP in the 2023 election, Peter Obi has called for war against insecurity as over 100 people were reportedly killed during the weekend.

Obi in a message on his official X platform monitored by SOJ WORLDWIDE screamed over the huge numbers of deaths recorded including deaths of security officers.

“Bloody Weekend: over 100 Killed in Borno, Sokoto, Katsina, Edo” Obi quoted from a newspaper headline.

Obi said there is evidence that there is a full-blown security emergency over incessant killings across some states.

He took a swipe at some leaders whom he said are junketing around the globe when the country is bleeding, he urge them to remain at home to combat insecurity.

“The killing of eight NSCDC officers, the abduction of a Chinese national in Edo, the kidnapping of passengers on the Benin–Iyere–Oluku road, and the slaughter of five soldiers and 58 civilians in Borno are not isolated tragedies.

They are stark evidence that Nigeria is in the grip of a full-blown security emergency.

My deepest condolences go to the families of our fallen heroes. Their courage reminds us that we still have men and women who are willing to risk everything for our safety. Their killers must be swiftly apprehended and brought to justice. Their sacrifices must never be forgotten.

When over 100 Nigerians are killed in a single weekend, our casualty figures rival those of countries officially at war. This is no longer business as usual.

It is time to declare a national war on insecurity — to mobilise every resource, every agency, every state, and to suspend all distractions while we begin the process of reclaiming our nation from lawlessness.

Even foreign trips by government officials should be put on hold until the situation is brought under control. True leadership must be seen at home, personally coordinating the war against insecurity.

Junketing around the world under the pretence of wooing investors, while the country bleeds, is to live in denial. Investors will not come into a war zone.

No nation can prosper while its citizens live under siege. History shows that insecurity is the quickest path to national collapse — Somalia and Libya stand as painful warnings.

We must act now, with urgency and courage, to prevent a total descent into anarchy and rebuild Nigeria into a safe, secure, and productive nation for all.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO”
