Looking at the gory security situation in Nigeria today, a serious national emergency for which President Muhammadu Buhari was voted into power, we can say without mincing words, that Nigerians have been failed by this administration. And woefully so.
time was the worry of every single individual in the country. Five years later, the situation has not improved; it has in fact escalated and extends to Northwest and North-central. Today, these two regions have turned into war zones with bandits, kidnappers and terrorists killing, kidnapping and raping innocent unarmed civilians unchallenged.
Today, only few opportunistic appointees of the federal government are not able to see or admit the failure of the administration particularly its inability to fulfill this elementary duty. The constitution of course grants the power over the security to citizens under the exclusive list; in other words, security is the responsibility of the federal government. But the federal government seems not to be doing enough.
More intriguingly, despite his lamentations about the worrying security situation, he still retain the service chiefs, whose strategies have not won the country any victory against criminals.
