Senator representing Abia North Senatorial District, Senator Mao Ohuabunwa, has queried the reasonability of the security agencies hunting for suspected members of the Eastern Security Network (ESN) in the South-East while bandits and terrorists are sacking communities in the North and taking over their ancestral land almost unchallenged.
Ohuabunwa, who spoke on the heels of media reports and confirmations by some northern governors that terrorists have taken over many communities in the region and seizing people’s wives, said “Nigeria is riding on a highway to abyss.”
He said that hunting for suspected personnel of ESN who are resisting the invasion of Eastern communities by bandits and killer herdsmen while bandits on killing spree occupy territories raises some curious questions.
The former leader of the House of Representatives warned that the current security situation in the country, if not properly handled, could plunge Nigeria into civil unrest.
