Insecurity: Things are getting worse than in 2015 – Governor Diri

Governor Duoye Diri has said that the security situation in the country is worse than it was in 2015

He said this while receiving heads of some security agencies on Tuesday April 19

He urged the Federal Government to effectively curb the killings and redouble its effort at combating insecurity, particularly in the northern part of the country adding that when one part of the country is affected all other parts are affected too.

He said; “I am sure that you will agree that things are worse now than in 2015. The Federal Government has to redouble its effort. Otherwise, the joker card is with the people of Nigeria. They know what to do come 2023.

“When one part of the country is sick, it affects the other parts. Kaduna and other states in the North are sick security-wise and it is affecting other parts of the country. Nigeria is very close to Thomas Hobbes’ ‘state of nature’ where life is described as nasty, brutish and short. The Federal Government has to do something to keep us away from the Hobbesian state.”
