Edo Governor Links Rising Insecurity to Targeted Plot Against Tinubu
Edo State Governor Mondai Okpebholo has spoken out on the increasing insecurity in Nigeria, claiming that the recent surge in abductions across the country is a deliberate attempt to discourage President Bola Tinubu. Okpebholo argued that a similar strategy was reportedly used against former President Goodluck Jonathan.
The nation has witnessed a fresh wave of abductions by bandits, including an attack on Christ Apostol Church in Kwara State where gunmen kidnapped worshippers. Okpebholo described the abductions as politically motivated, aimed at discouraging the President.
He emphasized the need to remain resolute against such tactics.
