Resign if you can’t secure Nigerians, TUC tells Buhari

The National President of the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC), Comrade Quadri Olaleye, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to resign if he can no longer provide adequate security for the citizens of the country.

Comrade Olaleye said this Friday during the burial ceremony of the late TUC General Secretary, Comrade Musa Lawal Ozigi, at his country home in Ogaminana, Adavi Local Government Area of Kogi State.

Comrade Olaleye lamented that bandits have taken over towns and cities, including roads and forests in the nation, adding that nobody is safe in the country.

“Children can no longer go to school; you cannot travel again and we cannot close our two eyes when sleeping. If the president cannot provide security for the citizens of this country, then he should resign,” he said.

He added that if the government had listened to the outcry of the people about the worsening security situation in the country, the current situation wouldn’t have occurred.

He lamented that the attack on the Abuja-Kaduna train led to the death of the General Secretary of TUC and its Kwara State chapter chairman, Comrade (Barr) Musa-Lawal Ozigi and Comrade Akin Akinsola, respectively.
