The Governor of Ebonyi State, Dave Umahi, has accused the past leadership of Nigeria as the main cause of insecurity in the country.
He said the past Nigerian leaders failed to address the future of young people in the country stating that it has led to the present state of what the country is experiencing today as regards insecurity.
The Governor made these statements during a session on Channels Television on Thursday, May 6.
According to him, it is not proper to blame the present administration for the high rate of insecurity in the country as the reason is systematic.
He said, “When people talk about the recent insecurity in our country, I keep saying that the insecurity did not just develop overnight. It has been a result of the failure of our past leaders to address the future of our youths. And this is the truth. So it’s not a question of blaming Mr. President or blaming Governors or blaming APC or PDP; it is systematic and it has been there for a very long time.
He further said “I think that we must deploy sincerity in our approach. We must deploy consultation, wisdom, and prayers. If all these are put together, I am sure that the insecurity in the country will be a thing of the past.”
