Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo says the government of President Muhammadu Buhari has been overwhelmed by insecurity.
Obasanjo said this while he played host to a People’s Democratic Party (PDP) presidential aspirant, Dr Ugochukwu Williams, at his Penthouse residence within the premises of the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL), Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The former president noted that Nigerians travelling are no longer safe on the road, in the train and at the airport
He called for concerted efforts to stem the tide of insecurity in Nigeria, regretting that the Buhari administration had been overwhelmed by the situation.
However, he charged Nigerians not to allow the present situation to overwhelm the country.
According to him, no individual can claim he has a solution to the challenges facing the nation, saying that that was why he receives anybody who visits him with open arms.
Obasanjo described the situation as one “where you are not safe on the road, you are not safe in the train, you are not safe at the airport.”
“That shows a very serious situation.
“All right-thinking Nigerians must know that we have a situation that has overwhelmed the present administration,” warning, however, that “we should not allow that situation to overwhelm Nigeria.”
