“Government would have saved the situation if only they are proactive; if government had listen to the people about the worsening security situation in the country, this situation wouldn’t have occurred again,” he said.
He stressed that people voted for him in 2015 because he promised to solve all the insecurity problems in the country, “but where are we today?” He also pointed out that the late general secretary of the TUC was the engine room of the union, adding that he was on his way to Kaduna for their meeting and he was attacked with others in the train.
He mentioned that the attack on the Abuja-Kaduna train that killed its General Secretary and Kwara State chapter chairman, Musa-Lawal Ozigi and Akin Akinsola, respectively, have shown that the APC-led Federal Government has performed far below average in providing security to Nigerians.
He equally called on the Federal Government to take a proactive step in solving the insecurity problem in the country.
