PDP. In this interview; he speaks on the failing security architecture in the country. He insists that the security chiefs have no reason to remain in office in view of their performance. He also speaks on the clamour for regional security outfits and the opposition role by his party, among other things.
How do you think we should tackle the insecurity problem at the pan Nigeria level, whether Boko Haram, banditry, organized kidnapping etc? You are one of the many Nigerians who have called for change of Service Chiefs. Even the House of Representatives has called for resignation of Service Chiefs. But their calls seem to have fallen on deaf ears. What will suggest the next line of action?
Thisis of serious concern to me because security transcends our diversity and every Nigeria citizen must feel secured in any part of Nigeria.I am saying so and very loudly too. When appointments of service chiefs become skewed to one part of the country, when a zone comprising five states is excluded, when appointments are annoyingly made from one zone to the irritation of others as this government has done, it is a complete mismanagement of Nigeria’s diversity.
Of course, it is Anambra where people will always try to beat the gun and bend the rules. I am not surprised because the last count revealed that there are about 23 Anambra State governorship aspirants even when the election is more than a year ahead. We, the Anambra senior politicians are watching the situation as it develops to make sure that Anambra state returns to that period of good governance which it enjoyed under Peter Obi.
Anambra State from 1999 has always been a PDP state and even when we did not produce the governor we produced the majority of National Assembly members. We know the hiccups that stopped us in 2017 even when we still had two Senators and majority of House of Representatives members. This time we shall make assurance double sure that there are no hiccups.
It would appear from your answer that your party is unhappy with the President having not signed the Electoral Law and that you arefactoring this matter into how the party shall deal with the Anambra issue?
