Why we need to politicise insecurity – Sam Amadi

Former Chairman of the Nigeria Electricity Regulation Commission, NERC, Sam Amadi, has countered government officials’ warning against the politicisation of the nation’s security crisis.

Amadi, who was reacting to the recent surge in attacks and abductions by terrorists across the country, said the situation is a “product of political leadership.”

In a post on his official Facebook page, Amadi said the President Tinubu-led government should be held accountable for students languishing in the forests.

According to the socio-political commentator, the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, also politicised insecurity in 2014 when it was fighting to take over power.

He said, “As our children languish in kidnapper’s forest, government people are telling us not to ‘politicize’ insecurity. Do not listen to them.

“Politicize insecurity. This current insecurity ravaging Nigeria is a product of political leadership. We need to call out the failure of President Tinubu in the current insecurity.

“That is what he did in 2027. That is the right thing to do”.
