Invest money on insecurity, acquire arms, ammunition – Group urges Tinubu
The Public Relations Officer of Citizens Rights Concern Enhancement Initiative, Human Rights Protection Congress, HRPC, Nigeria, Harrison Itulua today urged President Bola Tinubu’s led Federal Government of Nigeria to invest money on insecurity and acquire sophisticated arms and ammunition for the Nigerian military to tackle terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and others in the country.
Itulua made the call at the just concluded 2nd annual dialogue organised by the group in Effurun, Uvwie Local Government Area, Delta State.
He insisted that the country has the resources to acquire arms and ammunition for the military to address insecurity squarely.
“Insecurity is a very big problem. It’s a general problem in the country. The President should invest money in insecurity. Let him pump money in that area. Buy arms and ammunition that can match that of the terrorists that are coming to Nigeria from other Countries.”
While noting that it is not only the terrorists and bandits who are causing the insecurity in the nation, Itulua stressed that “Nigerian terrorists are also coming from other places.”
He also claimed that insecurity is political otherwise it would have been dealt with long ago.
According to him, “that’s why we are backwards and we will continue to be backward until insecurity is reduced to the barest minimum.”
Itulua tackled President Tinubu over his independence message wherein he purportedly said issues of insecurity had been addressed. In his words, Tinubu’s speech on insecurity is unacceptable. He said insecurity is on the increase nationwide.
“I cannot accept the statement of Mr President because personally I have suffered kidnapping. If he says he has tackled insecurity, I don’t think he is telling us the truth because he does not have the people at heart.”

Former Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, has urged Nigerian youths to remain in the country even in the face of economic challenges.
DAILY POST reports that in recent times, there has been a wave of migration by Nigerians who are seeking greener pastures abroad.
‘Japa’ is a popular word used to describe migration in the country.
Fashola, while speaking on Saturday at the combined 8th and 9th convocation ceremonies of Elizade University in Ilara-Mokin, Ondo State, encouraged the youth to strive for positions of influence in the country instead of seeking opportunities abroad.
According to him, leaders don’t run away even when things are tough.
“Why did Mrs Folorunso Alakija not run away? Why did Chief Tunde Afolabi, who has contributed to Nigeria, not run away? Why are they still here?
“Times were equally tough in their younger days. The youths have become leaders in the Nigerian household, and therefore, they must embrace that responsibility.
“Do leaders also run away when it is difficult? There were tough times when Chief Ade-Ojo was at the University of Nigeria (UNN), but Ade-Ojo didn’t leave. If he had left, there would be no Elizade University,” he said.
