In the face of ceaseless attacks by bandits in Nigeria, the Accord Party has expressed fears that the development may end the existence of Nigeria if nothing is done to arrest the situation.
Accord Party called on governments at all levels to rise up to the urgent call of the moment and decisively tackle insecurity.
The party added that Nigerians cannot continue to be cheaply killed by terrorists on a daily basis.
Speaking in a press statement, the National Legal Adviser of the party, Barr. Maxwell Mgbudem, said it sees the attack by the bandits, which left nine persons dead, many others wounded and kidnapped, as one too many to be wished away, adding that security agents must fish out the perpetrators.
According to the party, the Abuja-Kaduna bound train, which was bombed, was a manifestation of failed security intelligence and coordination, noting that Nigeria’s security architecture must be overhauled.
The party said that there is urgent need to revamp the securiy structure should in a manner that rhymes in sync with the modern day realities of efficient and effective protection of citizens.
The statement said: “We charge the citizens not to lose hope in the ability of the country to overcome its present security and economic challenges.
“In this month of Ramadan and Lent, we should pray more in seeking God’s intervention.”
