ADC, Obi Slam Nigeria’s Global Terror Ranking, Fault Tinubu’s Security Record
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) and former presidential candidate Peter Obi have strongly criticised the Federal Government following Nigeria’s latest placement among countries most affected by terrorism globally. They described the ranking as a troubling reflection of worsening insecurity under President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
In separate reactions, both the ADC and Obi expressed concern that Nigeria’s position on the global terrorism index highlights persistent threats to lives and property across the country. They argued that despite repeated assurances from the government, many communities continue to suffer attacks from insurgents, bandits, and other criminal groups.
The ADC stated that the report reinforces what many Nigerians already experience daily—heightened insecurity and fear. The party accused the current administration of failing to implement effective strategies to curb terrorism and protect citizens, noting that the situation demands urgent and decisive action.
Peter Obi, on his part, said the ranking should serve as a wake-up call for the government to reassess its approach to national security. He stressed that beyond rhetoric, there is a need for practical, intelligence-driven solutions to address the root causes of violence and instability.
Both the ADC and Obi urged the Federal Government to prioritise security, invest in modern equipment for security agencies, and adopt policies that address poverty and unemployment, which they say contribute to rising insecurity.
