The presidential candidate of the Labour Party in 2023, Mr Peter Obi, has called on the government to rise to its constitutional duties by protecting Nigerians, stating that the killing spree in the country must not continue.

He disclosed this in a statement on his verified X handle on Sunday.

The former governor of Anambra State expressed sadness over the report of the recent killing of seven mobile police officers by armed bandits in Zurmi Local Government Area of Zamfara State.

Obi said the government must keep the nation safe by fishing out the perpetrators of those crimes and bringing them to justice.
He said he will continue to add his voice against the ever-rising tide of insecurity in Nigeria, stressing that the lives of all Nigerians matter and must be protected.

Obi said: “I must, for the best interest of our nation, continue to add my voice against the ever-rising tide of insecurity in Nigeria. It has cost us precious lives, caused damage to properties and denied us opportunities for progress and development.

“Above all, the viral insecurity has curtailed the freedom of our people to enjoy peace and happiness in a land of democratic freedom. Democracy without freedom from fear is a farce.
