Senator Ned Nwoko Calls for Nigerians to Own Guns Amid Rising Insecurity

Senator Ned Nwoko is pushing for a policy shift to grant Nigerians the right to own firearms, driven by the surge in violent crimes and his own encounter with a senior legislative aide's kidnapping. He argues that arming residents can deter criminals and empower citizens to protect themselves, especially in the face of frequent kidnappings and armed attacks.

This proposal has reignited discussions on civilian gun ownership in Nigeria, amidst the country's grappling with widespread insecurity. Additionally, spiritual leader Elijah Ayodele has cautioned against Ned Nwoko's gubernatorial ambitions amid ongoing rift rumors with his wife, actress Regina Daniels.
