Former Labour Party (LP) presidential aspirant, Faduri Joseph, has raised the alarm over rising insecurity in the country, especially as bandits now ravage the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.He also proffered solutions to the insecurity menace.
  
A statement by LP National Director, Media and Publicity, Rev Emmanuel Olorunmagba, in Ilorin, Kwara State, quoted the activist, popularly called Fadojoe, to have said: “The insecurity in our country raises serious concerns. Gone are the days when anyone can sleep outside, when you can travel on the road any time and when we move freely without fear of being abducted.”
  
He tasked the Inspector General of Police (IGP) and the service chiefs to end the menace, which “is affecting the country’s economy negatively and has since assumed alarming rate, to the extent that the capital city that is supposed to be one of the safest places is being ravaged freely by the bandits.”
  
According to him, no country can survive economically when there is such insecurity, when traders are afraid to travel for fear of being kidnapped and made to pay heavy ransom in addition to psychological trauma.if they are not brutally murdered, and when farmers are scared of going to farm because of bandits. 
 
 He, however, queried: “What happened to our intelligence? There is no country that can survive insecurity in the world without good intelligence, precisely, human intelligence. Why can’t the government have men from the intelligence sector that will be on the mission to dig out the secret of this banditry?”  Olorunmagba called on the citizens to support with information when they sense something amiss.
  
“The citizens should always be ready to say something because these bandits are also human beings and some are living among the different communities,” the cleric said. 
  
Calling on the lawmakers to sponsor a bill that will recommend capital punishment for bandits and terrorists, he urged the executive to employ and train more vibrant and younger Nigerians willing to join either the military or the police and pay the security operatives well.   He beckoned America and other western nations not to watch Nigeria crash under insecurity.
