Uwaifo Critiques FG's Insecurity Response Ahead of 2027 Elections
On 12 September 2026, Hannibal Uwaifo, SAN, President of the South-East South-South Professionals of Nigeria (SESSPN), expressed concerns regarding the Federal Government's inability to effectively address insecurity in Nigeria. He emphasized that the upcoming 2027 election campaigns should focus on how presidential candidates plan to tackle issues such as insecurity, economic prosperity, and governance.
Uwaifo described the current state of the nation as "terrible," citing increased kidnappings and killings, and criticized the government's handling of the petroleum subsidy removal, which he claims has led to economic hardship for citizens. He also condemned the All Progressive Congress (APC) government for its failure to manage political dynamics, including the decamping of governors and the incapacitation of political parties.
Uwaifo's remarks reflect a broader dissatisfaction with the government's performance and the urgent need for accountability and transparency in governance.
