Reported by Marian Opeyemi Fasesan | Sele Media Africa

Former Kano State Governor and NNPP leader, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has called on the Federal Government to urgently probe the growing insecurity across Nigeria, amid renewed kidnappings and bandit attacks in multiple states.

“These persistent attacks show serious lapses that demand immediate investigation and accountability,” Kwankwaso said during a press briefing on Wednesday.

Key Details:

• Kwankwaso expressed concern over the safety of schoolchildren and rural communities.
• He warned that public trust in government could erode if decisive action is not taken.
• Urged a national review of intelligence coordination, border patrol, and crisis response.

Why It Matters:

• Adds political weight to calls for security sector reform.
• Reflects rising anxiety over state capacity to protect citizens.
• May influence public discourse and pressure federal authorities to act.

What to Watch:

• Government response to the call for investigation.
• Support from other political leaders or security experts.
• Outcomes from the National Assembly’s scheduled security debate.
