Peter Obi calls for action against insecurity, economic hardship

Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has sounded the alarm on Nigeria’s escalating insecurity and economic woes, urging collective action to tackle the growing crises.

In a statement issued on Saturday via his X handle, Obi highlighted recent kidnappings, including the abduction of medical students in Benue and a state commissioner and his wife in Edo, emphasizing the need for a unified response.

“It’s time to declare war on this massive insecurity and other ills threatening our society,” Obi said, calling for bold action and a united front against the challenges facing the nation.
