The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) has said Nigeria fared better in terms of security under the past administration than in President Muhammadu Buhari’s time.
Recall that the presidency recently noted that insecurity level has dropped in Nigeria since Buhari came on board in 2015.
However, NEF has said that insecurity in the north is worse under Buhari, according to its Chairman Ango Abdullahi.
He regretted that Buhari is not doing enough to tame the rising level of insecurity in the country.
Speaking to Punch, Abdullahi said “I don’t understand what the reaction from the Presidency is expected to convey to the public.”
“They (Presidency) should be concerned that the security failures are everywhere, including the hometown of the President.
“Obviously, there is more insecurity in the North today than during Jonathan’s leadership.”
