Senate President Godswill Akpabio has appealed to the people of the South East to sustain peace and prevent their youth from engaging in armed struggle against the Federal Government. Akpabio made the plea on Saturday during the funeral of Sir Albert Ikechukwu Nnamani, former Administrative Secretary of the defunct Oil Mineral Producing Area Development Commission (OMPADEC), held in Ikem, Enugu State. In a statement made available to journalists in Abuja, Akpabio emphasised that development can only thrive in a peaceful atmosphere and urged Ndigbo to properly mentor the younger generation. “For Ndigbo, I want to plead with you to continue to maintain the peace and watch the youth of today. They don’t understand politics. They don’t understand development. You can only have development in an area of peace,” Akpabio said.

 Danjuma’s call for self-defense may lead to anarchy – Gov Namadi


…Says State Police Still in the Works


Governor Umar Namadi of Jigawa State has disagreed with the recent remarks made by former Chief of Army Staff, General Theophilus Danjuma, urging Nigerians to defend themselves in the face of growing insecurity.

Speaking on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Monday, Governor Namadi warned that such a call could lead to chaos.

“He (Danjuma) is a very senior security person, and should be respected. But if he says that citizens should be allowed to defend themselves, I think you are causing anarchy,” Namadi said. “His words need to be analysed carefully.”

The governor emphasized that the government is actively working to improve the country’s security architecture. He cited efforts in Jigawa State as an example of how strategic planning and community engagement can yield positive results.

“When we assumed office, we employed a lot of strategies and brought in experts. We also engaged traditional rulers and established standing committees to communicate with the people. Now, they understand that fighting or killing each other is not the solution,” he said. “We have not reached the level where people need to defend themselves.”

Governor Namadi also expressed support for the establishment of State Police, saying it remains a viable solution to the nation’s security challenges.

“The idea of State Police is still very much alive. Many states have indicated interest. At the level of the National Economic Council, discussions are ongoing, and I believe it will eventually be implemented,” he said.
