Nigeria's Security Architecture, A Complete Failure – Chidoka
Chief Osita Chidoka

Former Minister of Aviation and Chieftain of the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Osita Chidoka has raised an alarm over the security situation in the country insisting that Nigeria has degenerated into an incapacitated state due to the high rate of insecurity bedeviling it.

Chief Osita Chidoka made this disclosure while reviewing books by Dr Dozie Ezeife on Seeking Answers to Nigeria’s Security Challenges and Boko Haram, in Abuja, yesterday.

Recounting how Boko Haram started about two decades ago, Chief Chidoka called for concerted efforts by the government in order to end the current security challenges in the country.

While commenting on the Niger Delta, he called on the government to put in place a strategy to ensure that the current peace enjoyed in the Niger Delta region is sustained.

Chidoka further commended the author of the books, which he said will assist in resolving the nagging insecurity issues in the country.

In his remarks, the author, Dr Dozie Ezeife, stated that the current violent attacks, killings, kidnappings, and destructions ravaging the country, called to question the viability and legitimacy of the federal government because these actions challenge the very basis for an organized government.

He said ‘The basis for having a government is the social contract that is the foundation of modern societies. We the people gave up our God-given rights to the government on the understanding that in return, the government takes on the responsibility of protecting our lives, limbs, properties and general wellbeing.’

Many Nigerians have continued to call on the Federal government to do more to ensure the safety of lives and property in Africa’s most populous country.
