Northern Youths, under the umbrella of Arewa Youth Vanguard, has faulted the “worst of insecurity is over” claim made by the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed.
The youth maintained that the claim by the minister is not only far from reality but also a mockery of the Nigerian populace.
The minister had last week said “the worst is over” while briefing newsmen on the security situation of the country.
Mohammed said while the country may still witness isolated attacks on soft targets by terrorists, the security agencies have battled the agents of darkness and recorded massive victories against the terrorists.
But addressing journalists on Tuesday in Abuja, convener of the group, Amb Zakari Hashim backed the comment of security expert, Adejare Adegbenro on the minister’s claim.
The Guardian reports that Adegbenro, a renowned security expert who reacted to the minister’s statement had submitted that the time is not right to make what he described as “bogus statements” about the insecurity situation.
