Prevailing insecurity worse than civil war, Atiku declares

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has said the prevailing insecurity is worse than the three -year civil war the country experienced between 1967 and 1970 .
Addressing newsmen yesterday in Minna during his endorsement tour of Niger State , he maintained that Nigerian was more secured during the civil war.

He condemned the ‘nepotistic disposition ’ of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration .

  • “ Buhari has been consistently insensitive in the way he shares patronage . Sharing patronage only to one section is not how to run a country like ours ,” Atiku stated.

The Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) presidential hopeful argued that the Buhari -led All Progressives Congress ( APC ) administration had taken the nation to the lowest level of economic recession and recorded the highest level of youth unemployment .
On his chances of picking the PDP ticket , Atiku said he had always been a loyal party member , promising to support whoever emerges the standard -bearer.
His words : “ I have always been motivated by service to the people and not for personal gains and as to whether I will re -contest after 2019 , that will depend on whether I ’ m still alive physically and mentally capable.
“ But one thing I want you to know is that my consistent desire to serve is about giving back to the society because I don’ t want to be any other person than being a Nigerian. ”
He said: “ The description of President Muhammadu Buhari by the American President, Donald Trump, as far as I am concerned, is that Buhari government is lifeless .
