Cardinal Onaiyekan Urges Nigerian Govt to Prioritize Citizen Safety Amid Insecurity
Cardinal Onaiyekan, Archbishop Emeritus of Abuja Catholic Archdiocese, criticizes the Nigerian government for failing to address the escalating violence and mass killings in the country. He emphasizes the need for the government to focus on ensuring the safety and survival of its citizens rather than being fixated on future goals like 2027.
The statement comes in the wake of numerous kidnappings, including the recent abduction of students and teachers in Niger and Kebbi states, as well as attacks on worshippers in Kwara State. Onaiyekan highlights the pervasive fear and suffering experienced by millions of Nigerians due to insecurity.
