     The Senate Minority Leader, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, has called on President Muhammad Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, APC, to resign as the security situation of the country continues to deteriorate.
The senator representing Abia South in the red chamber made the call while speaking on the floor of the Senate on the Motion entitled, ”Nigerian Security Challenges: Urgent need restructure, review and reorganise the current Security Architecture.”
The Senate Leader, Senator Yahaya Abdullahi, of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Kebbi North moved the Motion and it was co- sponsored by all the Senators.
Speaking after the Senate leader who moved the motion, Abaribe warned that Nigerians are coming with stones to chase out the government since it has faiied in all its ramifications to protect lives and property against the backdrop that the government had once asked the people to stone it if it fails to perform.
In his words, Abaribe said: “We did not vote the IG of police, we did not vote the Chief of Staff, or other security chiefs, we voted the government of APC in 2015 and re-elected them in 2019 because they told us hey have the key to security.
“Today, the APC government has failed because people are being killed anyhow. If you want to deal with a matter, you first go to the head. We can go to the APC government and ask this government to resign.
“And we want to tell the government that if it does not resign, we shall have no option than to go with stones to pursue it.”.
