It is now very clear that Nigeria is mired in a myriad of challenges ranging from security to the economy. Under the watch of President Buhari, the security challenges are rising without any decisive measure being put in place to arrest the situation. Nigerians are no longer safe in their homes and on the roads.
The recent attacks on the Kaduna bound train by bandits showed that the government is too weak to take decisive action to tackle the menace.

Nigerians have waited too long for President Buhari to provide panacea to the lingering security situation in the country but to no avail.
President Buhari had taken an oath to secure the nation, as such he should know that he bears full responsibility for the present situation the country is facing.
He must show concern and act to salvage Nigeria and Nigerians.
The president should learn to get firsthand information and then engage the communities on what needs to be done to bring this to an end. He should not solely rely on information given to him by his aides and officials.
