As insecurity in Nigeria continues to strive, Senate President Ahmad Lawan has called on the federal government to unleash ‘total federal might’ to crush insurgency in the country.
Lawan made this known while speaking during a meeting with All Progressives Congress (APC) delegates in Cross River state on May 20.
He stated that the APC government which came into power in 2015, has been able to recover the 16 local government areas captured by Boko Haram insurgents in Borno and Yobe states.
Lawan said;
“The insecurity issue in the country deserves total attention. The federal government should unleash all the federal might to quell insurgency, banditry and even the militancy in the Niger Delta.
“In the 9th Assembly, we have given utmost attention to all military and security requests, signifying the importance we attach to security.”
