"People talk about insecurity and insult the President as if insecurity just started within the administration of Bola Tinubu" Minister of Works David Umahi says (video)

The Minister of Works, David Umahi criticised those who insult President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the insecurity in the country. 

.....

Umahi said  that security challenges facing the country did not start under President Bola Tinubu’s administration. 

Speaking during a town hall meeting organised by the Gombe State Government shortly after the official unveiling of the proposed Gombe Super Highway project, the minister criticised what he described as attempts by some politicians to use insecurity as a political tool, particularly ahead of elections. 

“When people talk about insecurity, especially extreme politicians, and insult the President as if insecurity just started within the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, it is very unfortunate,” Umahi said. 

He added that security is the duty of everyone.

He said: “Security is the job of everyone. Security should not be politicised. Why is it that anytime we are approaching elections, there is heightened insecurity? It is very unfair. Anyone who takes the life of another person under any guise, God is watching.

“If anyone has a hand in insecurity because the person wants power, God will resist such a person. We stand with the President, we pray for him, and this phase will pass. We will overcome.” 

Umahi also prayed for the safe return of persons recently abducted in different parts of the country.
