Former secretary to the Government of the Federation and presidential candidate, Olu Falae, has bemoaned the deepening security crisis that plagues country,
Speaking while addressing newsmen in Akure, Falae expressed concern that the perennial insecurity may hinder the conduct and credibility of the 2023 election.
“I pray that terrorists will allow the election to take place. Some few days ago they burnt down the INEC office somewhere in the South-East. They have been doing that for a long time, so we hope the election will even be possible.
“If elections take place at all, I hope the outcome will be acceptable and credible because if, during voting, shootings take place, the outcome may not be credible.
“So, all in all, I am hoping that we will be able to have elections that will be credible, and I am praying that the Lord Almighty will intervene and pick a government that can lead Nigeria out of the crisis in which we are. Nigeria is tottering precariously on the edge of the precipice.”
