According to Akume, who was a former Governor of Benue State, banditry and other challenges cannot be overcome without the participation of all Nigerians, thus everyone must be involved in finding a lasting solution to the challenge.
“The challenges facing Nigeria includes but not limited to inadequate emergency preparedness and response, the gap between relief materials management and durable development projects, and ad-hoc planning and policy intervention.
“There is also lack of institutional and legal framework for the management of internally displaced population in Nigeria, insufficient or absence of inter-agency collaboration which mostly results in agencies working at cross purposes with duplicative activities.
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Ayo Arise, on Tuesday called on the Federal Government to allow Nigerians to bear arms.
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily, the lawmaker said no amount of police protection can ensure Nigerians’ safety.
The lawmaker explained that the security challenges can be curbed if citizens are allowed to bear arms.
“When you look at the quantum of ammunition, 350 million; where do we start from; we have such porous borders; people can come in from anywhere, and of course there have been agitations. I am one of those who think that Nigeria should allow people to bear arms,” he said.
