According to report reaching oyogist.com, the National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus, have called on the Nigerian Federal Government to declare a state of emergency in the country’s security sector.

He noted that the country is now in a state of distress as the rate of insecurity in the country has now drastically increased. He further called on the President to immediately reform the country’s security architecture while also stressing the need for the urgent rescue of the kidnapped 300 students in Kankara, Katsina state.
“The president should declare a state of emergency on security as quickly as possible and change the whole security architecture.”
“You are aware that over 300 boys were kidnapped in a secondary school in Katsina State. You are also aware just a week ago, that over 40 to 100 farmers were killed in Borno State.
“Is Nigeria not in distress? We are in pain: the economy is bad, security is bad, virtually every facet of Nigeria life has collapsed.
“You better let the world know and those in authority that all we are saying is that let President Buhari release the kidnapped Katsina boys for us because we are in pain.
“It is important we guarantee the security of lives and property for our people because without that there will be no development,” Prince Secondus stated.
