CAN urges FG to declare state of emergency on insecurity

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has formally requested that the Federal Government declare a state of emergency to address the escalating insecurity across the country. This plea comes in response to a significant increase in kidnapping incidents and other forms of violent crime. CAN emphasizes the urgent need for decisive action to protect citizens and restore order.

The association believes that a state of emergency would empower the government with the necessary tools and resources to confront the pervasive security challenges effectively. They are urging swift and comprehensive measures to curb the rampant insecurity plaguing various regions.

This call highlights the growing public concern and pressure on the government to decisively tackle the worsening security situation in Nigeria.
