Dear @officialABAT

On matters of security, the bulk stops at the President's table. Like in other countries, Tinubu is the Chief Security Officer.

Nigeria's security Outlook is depressing. The unending attacks suggest a failure of intelligence.

PROTECT NIGERIANS NOW!!!

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Ordinarily, I would not have commented on this issue, as I have endured far worse situations in my political life since I declared for the presidency, and it continues to worsen as I strive to do things in a civilised and organized manner. The unfolding events demand that I have to start speaking out now.

On what transpired today during my planned visit to Benue State, I am not entirely sure that the state Governor, my dear younger brother, a Reverend Father I deeply respect, is aware of this situation. Having exhausted every possible means to reach him, I am compelled to use this available platform to ensure my message is conveyed.

On Thursday, the 10th of April, I had planned to visit Plateau and Benue State, respectively. Plateau on Sunday, the 13th of April 2025, and Benue on Monday, the 14th of April 2025. My trip included paying courtesy calls to the governors as well as visiting the IDP camps and schools of nursing in both states to give my support.

As is my practice, I reached out to the Plateau State government to inform them of my visit, which included spending the day with the victims at the IDP camp in Bokkos, a visit I wholeheartedly embraced to extend my support, care, and compassion to fellow Nigerians in need. And in his utmost hospitality, the Plateau State Governor graciously permitted.
In a similar vein, I tried repeatedly to contact the Benue State Governor directly without success. I then successfully contacted his ADC who told me that the governor was in a very important meeting and would call me before midnight on the same day.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get that call until Sunday evening when he sent me a message stating he had not been able to reach his principal since the day I called. I was disturbed by how an ADC would not have been able to reach his principal for 3 days.

However, because my visit to the governor was just for courtesy and respect, I decided to proceed with my trip to Makurdi.
Earlier today at 7am, I left Jos, and on reaching Akwanga at about 10am, my security team stopped and stated they received a press statement, purportedly from the Benue State Government, that appeared designed to stop my trip. Curiously while I was still talking with my security team on the issue, the Governors ADC sent the statement directly to me.

The letter refers exactly to my itinerary which I had earlier conveyed to the ADC directly and to the security operatives in Benue through my own security.

I am forced to remind them, and all concerned, that the purpose of this journey is to support good causes in areas of critical development: health and health education, education and caring for our people in need, and this is what I have done in my private life for years before getting into politics and even while in politics I have continued to do so.

Everyone knew then how I had to get permission from the then President, President Goodluck Jonathan, that I needed to visit Haiti during the earthquake.

I intended to visit a school being built by the bishop in Gboko, a Nursing school and an IDP camp, actions that reflect my genuine care for the welfare of our fellow citizens, and my continuous show of love, care and compassion to citizens who have been displaced.

May God help us as we rebuild our nation and aim to achieve a new Nigeria where we do not politicize everything but allow citizens to exist, and we all should live for the common good for less privileged Nigerians and those in need.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Mr. President, Domestic problems Beacons.

I am compelled at this time in our lives as a nation to call on our retreating President's attention to the security challenges at home, which entails that he immediately suspend his ongoing retreat in a foreign land and come home to address the overwhelming security situation across the country.

This urgent call has become necessary following the rising incidents of crimes and criminalities all over Nigeria with an apparent absence of governance.

In the 2 weeks you have been away, over 150 Nigerians have lost their lives to insecurity across Nigeria, especially in Plateau and Zamfara states.

The repeated pipeline explosions in the Niger Delta, further reflect a nation in distress.

In the North East, Borno state leaders are bemoaning the return of insurgency with troops and civilians being killed randomly. In the South East, the story is the same: killings and abduction.

Amid all these, the CEO of the troubling company called Nigeria is retreating far away land in France from the Company's headquarters.

The primary duty of any government is securing the lives and property of its citizens and one wonders the type of retreat going on in another country where peace has been secured by their leaders while blood continues to flow in our country

The fight for a better Nigeria is not about individuals; it is about ensuring that every citizen can see, feel, and benefit from the policies and decisions of those in power.

I, therefore like to urge Mr President to quickly suspend whatever he is doing in France and rush home to take responsibility by addressing these disturbing issues

That is the new Nigeria that the nation seeks.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

@IretiKingibe Can you challenge the FCT Minister on this issue please? Families being directed to quit from their homes in the late Colonel Chinda’s estate in Harmony. It can’t be allowed to happen please. Advise the constituents of their rights and remedies please.

#EnougIsEnough @NGRPresident @PeterObi Mr Prezdent can you please clip this oppressive stupidity that public servants like #alexikwechegh and others like him think is their right before 200 million Nigerians (few of whom put him in office) decide to follow his morose example

#NIUK @BTOofficial @UKinNigeria “Honourable” minister! This is a low hanging fruit not to be ignored. Your officers at the airports are treating dual citizens unlawfully at immigration desks. Investigate and stop needless delays. Act NOW @SERAPNigeria

@BTOofficial What did NGR/UK & NGR/US nationals do to deserve the harassment we get for travelling with 2 passports? @nigimmigration at MMA International accuse dual nationals at the departure gate of breaking unspecified Nigerian law all to extort money! @UKinNigeria

@BTOofficial @UKinNigeria @JonnyBaxterFCDO I don’t see how we can acknowledge dual nationality yet treat ourselves in ways we don’t expect other countries to treat us. @BTOofficial you’re not doing badly resolving the issues with travel and identity documents.
