Nigerian leaders, especially those seeking public office, were on Sunday urged to be circumspect in whatever they do, especially when it concerns the interest of the public so that such action may not come to hunt them later.
This is as the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Prince Adewole Adebayo hinged his position on the 2015 tweet of President Muhammadu Buhari as a measure of the downturn of the insecurity in the country.
In a recent tweet, Adebayo admonished President Buhari to either sit up as Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces to do a good job or say goodbye to his office, even as he advised him to issue operational orders for immediate liquidation of all enemy combatants.
Adebayo, in his verified Twitter handle@Pres_Adebayo, was specifically reacting to President Buhari’s tweet of 2015 where, he, as All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, was admonishing former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan for the insecurity in the country at that time.
The President tweeted on Jan 19, 2015, “Can our President keep us safe when we travel to any part of this country? Is your life better today than it was six years ago?”.
But replying to the tweet a few days ago, Adebayo stated, “Your tweet today may taunt you tomorrow. Past participation is no guarantee of future performance. @MBuhari as our concern keeps us safe by issuing operational orders for immediate liquidation of all enemy combatants. Lives and liberty are at stake. No middle. Either good job or goodbye”.
The insecurity in the country has become more pronounced in recent times. Last week, the Federal Ministry of Education ordered the immediate closure of the Federal Government College, Kwali, in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, over security threats.
The ever-busy Abuja-Kaduna express road has become suicidal owing to bandits and terrorists who have used and still using kidnapped motorists and commuters as a meal tickets.
In march this year, the terrorists attacked the Nigerian Railway Corporation train headed for Kaduna. Several of the passengers were kidnapped such that family members had to pay a ransom before they were released.
Some are still in the custody of the kidnappers. Last month, over 40 people, including children, were killed in a church in Owo in Ondo State. The insurgency is still very much alive in the North East.
