 The IKT state governor, who doubles as the chairman Nigerian governor's forum, Kairi Fahadmi, has called for a state of emergency on insecurity in Nigeria. Other stakeholders charged the government to rise to their responsibilities. They said this at the Good Shepherd Seminary Convocation in Kaduna, while they delivered a lecture tagged Church Politics, the future of election in Nigeria, and the role of religious leaders in 2023 election. This report has details. Governor Kairi Fahadmi has proposed two solutions to Nigeria's security challenges. One is to prosecute criminals, and the second is to address socioeconomic challenges, such as inequality, unemployment, and hunger. We have not been tough enough on the crimes. We have not brought people responsible for these criminality to book as we ought to. And this brigade in the first instance stopped when impunity stopped. When that happens, then we can take on the broader socioeconomic challenges that are responsible for these crimes. Governor Fahadmi also encouraged religious leaders not to practice partisanship, but to preach peace and promote unity in the country. Others speakers at the event charged the government to declare state of emergency on security especially. Protect Nigerians and better secure educational institutions, have farmlands and highways. I don't think there's anything that needs to be said has not been said with regards to the security challenges facing our country. Nonetheless, we can never get tired. The first responsibility of any government, but whatever it means, you know, that government came to power. The first responsibility is to secure the lives and property of the citizenry. That is totally absent today in our country to say the least. And therefore, we can never give up. We must always wear people of hope. So as we continue to encourage the people never to give up, we also continue to tell the government to do the needful. It was on this ground here last year when we came to bury the seminary and that was killed, you know, by the kidnappers. What Nigerians need today is security. The government should, you know, declare a state of emergency and ensure that the resources available resources are channeled towards, you know, securing our country, securing our people. On his part, the vice chancellor of Tarabasic University called on Nigerians to have faith in Nigeria and to pray that the country overcomes her security challenges. Nigerians should not be discouraged. Parents should not be discouraged because every situation is a challenge. And there is no problem with our solution. I have just proposed one solution. There are many people who may even have better ideas on how to solve this. And to solve this problem does not require just immediate action. We have to go to the root cause of these problems and try to bring solutions to all the factors that must have brought out all this negative behavior. And to the Nigerian youth, I will say be courageous, be prayerful, be determined, be fearless, be focused, be firm, and I'm sure we will overcome this. Because most of these criminal individuals, they are also youth, you know. One individual is one individual because he's having a weapon or whatever. Does not mean that he can overpower the whole people because united we stand divided we fall. At the end of the lecture convocating students were recognized by the management of the seminary school and deserving students received commendations and awards.
