Stop Political Campaigns And Focus On Security Challenges, Amachree Tells Tinubu

"As he takes one step, he is also careful about his political party and supporters, and trying not to step on certain toes. "But if he wants to return as President, just as Jonathan did, he should stop the political campaigns and face the security problem frontally. 

"Solve it first. If we need help from outside, get it. Then we can return to campaigning. If we are campaigning while people are being attacked, I don’t think citizens will even come out to vote.
“”We can begin (with) the Commander-in-Chief. He is the one handling the problem and will be supported by the legislature with the necessary laws to do what needs to be done. 

"If they see that he is serious, I believe the National Assembly will support him wholeheartedly. The buck stops on his table, and that is where we should start.” 
Amachree further lampooned the slow pace of reforms aimed at strengthening the nation’s security framework, pointing out that urgent legislation often takes far too long despite the National Assembly’s ability to pass bills quickly when necessary.
“To boost our security architecture, it is taking forever. I have seen in Nigeria where, within a week, bills are passed, and there is something that would have been passed a long time ago; it was just a few days ago they just passed it for the state police to be established, and remember, it is going to go to all the states to get their own consensus.
“Now, why were we wasting all that time till now? Because of this problem, we have i think there should be more attention given to it. We are not the worst country when it comes to kidnapping; other countries have been very much into it,” he further said.
His remarks come amid growing public concern over insecurity across the country, including the abduction of Major General Abubakar Rabe, rtd, who later died in captivity, as well as  dozens of people, among them schoolchildren and teachers, in Oyo State.
