The House of Representatives has invited the National Security Adviser, all the security Chiefs, Director, Department of State Security and Inspector General of Police to brief the House on the state of insecurity in the country.
Moving the motion earlier, Mr Soli said there was need for the security experts to brief the House on efforts being made to ensure safety of lives and properties of citizens.
He said, “This is due to lack of sustained tempo in the intervention, these criminals have continued to regroup in different camps in the government reserve forests and surrounding villages across the country. “Any deferment by the security agencies to abridge the continuous horror and inhumanity will result in an enormous loss of lives, destruction of properties and immobilise the Socio-Economic and Educational activities of various communities,” he said.He added that with the persistent attacks by criminals on farming communities across the country, especially in the North-West and North Central, may result in serious food shortage.
The lawmaker said the bandits come out in their hundreds and operate for hours without any intervention from security personnel.He said if this is allowed to continue, there would be food shortages and people might resort to self-help which would lead to a total breakdown flaw and order.
