The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has condemned the spate of insecurity in the country and urged the federal government to arrest the situation immediately as no part of the country is safe.
The National Publicity Secretary of NNPP, Agbo Major, said yesterday in Abuja that Nigerians had been living in fear of terrorists, insurgents, bandits, kidnappers, militants, armed robbers and ritualists.

According to him, no means of transportation is safe anymore including land, railway, air and sea.
“We have not had it so bad since independence in 1960.
It is a sad commentary on our emerging democracy. The need for a new Nigeria, which only New Nigeria People’s Party will provide cannot be overemphasised.
“Nigerians need a compassionate government with milk of human kindness and ready to deliver dividends of democracy to assuage the sufferings of the people in accordance with Section 14(2)b of the Constitution 1999, as amended, which states that security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.”
“It is unfortunate that this basic constitutional requirement of government at all levels has remained a mirage as fellow compatriots are being killed daily as if there is no government in place,” Major said.
He urged eligible Nigerians to register, obtain their voter cards and ensure they vote out all those that have brought the nation to the sorry state and their stooges to pave way for a new Nigeria.
