Mr. Odumala Olufemi, CEO of CSI Nigeria
Gunmen suspected to be terrorists have kidnapped at least 40 people in a fresh attack launched in Kujuru local government in Kaduna State.
Emphasising the need for collaboration among security agencies, intelligence sharing, and the provision of adequate resources to tackle the growing security challenges in Nigeria.
The incident in Kujuru local government area is just one of many in a series of attacks and kidnappings that have plagued the country in recent years.
The rise in insecurity has left many Nigerians living in fear and has had a significant impact on the daily lives and livelihoods of the citizens.
The government has been criticized for its handling of the security situation, with many accusing it of not doing enough to protect its citizens. The pleas and demands for action have become louder and more urgent as the frequency and severity of attacks continue to escalate.
The CEO of Crime and Safety Security Information CSI, Mr. Odumala Olufemi, has called for the establishment of a standby team in areas prone to attacks, to ensure a swift and effective response. This proactive approach, he believes, would help prevent future kidnappings and acts of terrorism.
Ambassador Agim Godwin Apple, the United Nations Peace Ambassador to Finland, also chimed in, urging the government to take drastic measures to intercept such calamities. He stressed the importance of collaboration and resource allocation to tackle insecurity effectively.
The government’s response to these pleas and demands will be crucial in determining its effectiveness in curbing the security challenges facing Nigeria. As the citizens continue to cry out for an end to the insecurity, it is hoped that the government will prioritize the safety and well-being of its people and take appropriate measures to restore peace and security in the country.
