The Makinde-Daura Presidential Campaign Organization has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to take immediate action to secure the release of prospective National Youth Service Corps members abducted in Imo State on October 1. The campaign organization, in a statement by its Director of Strategic Communications, Richard Ihediwa, expressed concern over the President's silence on the matter despite public outcry. The abduction of the corps members has sparked widespread condemnation, and the campaign organization is demanding decisive action from the President.
The campaign organization also demanded the unconditional release and safe return of other Nigerians, including women and children, abducted in various parts of the country. The abductions occurred in Niger, Kwara, Kaduna, Zamfara, Sokoto, Katsina, Borno, and other states. The organization described the continued detention of these victims as unacceptable and called on President Tinubu to prioritize their release. The President's inaction has been criticized, with many Nigerians expressing frustration over the government's handling of insecurity.
The campaign organization reminded President Tinubu that the security and welfare of citizens are primary responsibilities of government, as enshrined in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The organization noted that once a Nigerian youth is called up for NYSC, their security and wellbeing become the exclusive responsibility of the Federal Government. The President is expected to take concrete steps to address the issue of insecurity, which has resulted in the killing of over 600,000 innocent Nigerians and countless others in captivity.
The organization criticized the All Progressives Congress administration for its handling of insecurity, describing it as a failure. The campaign organization insisted that insecurity should no longer be treated with rhetoric and lip service, but rather with decisive action. The continued detention of innocent Nigerians is a stark reminder of the government's inability to protect its citizens. The campaign organization called on President Tinubu to act now and deal decisively with insecurity.
The abduction of the NYSC members occurred on October 1, and it has been four days since the incident, with the victims still in captivity. The campaign organization described the situation as a national emergency and demanded immediate action from the President. The organization's statement has sparked a renewed call for action on social media, with many Nigerians expressing support for the demand.
The campaign organization's statement is a reflection of the growing concern over insecurity in Nigeria. The issue has become a major challenge for the government, with many Nigerians expressing frustration over the lack of progress in addressing the problem. The President's response to the abduction of the NYSC members will be closely watched, as it is seen as a test of his leadership.
The Makinde-Daura Presidential Campaign Organization's demand for action from President Tinubu is a call to prioritize the security and welfare of Nigerians. The organization's statement has highlighted the need for decisive action to address insecurity and protect innocent lives.
