Former presidential candidate, Mr. Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim, has called for the implementation of a six-point agenda, towards stabilising Nigeria. In a statement entitled ‘The Dark Days are here, but the light will come’, Olawepo-Hashim said: “In the minimum, Nigeria must establish a Defence Co-operation Agreement (DCA) with a friendly nation to halt the enemy’s advance.
“Those who are fighting Nigeria are from all over the world; we must put our house in order by resolving internal wrangling through dialogue, fairness, and justice.”
He also said Nigeria must have a broad-based cabinet that could inspire hope, efficiency and national unity.
“We must immediately create the framework for states and local councils to have their own police. All states should have concurrent jurisdiction over mineral resources within their domain and pay taxes to the federal purse,” he stressed.

Former Presidential Candidate in the 2019 general election, Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim has called for the implementation of a six point agenda, to stabilize the country amidst growing insecurity.
The businessman cum politician in a statement a titled, “The Dark Days are Here, but the Light will Come,” said darkness walks on all fours in the land, adding however that hope was not lost.
The statement read: “It is unending sorrows for most families as our country bleeds. Insecurity is the common word now; but I am a fervent believer that order shall return sooner than later.” He said.
He continued: “That darkness surrounds a land does not mean that light will not still come. The root causes of insecurity are rising poverty, rising illiteracy, bigotry, and hate. Nigeria is able to rise again once we commit to tackle these causative factors of insecurity even as we rejig the security architecture and structure of governance.”
