It called on the Federal Government to urgently put a halt to various acts of terrorism, kidnapping, herders/farmers clashes and the likes.
The group asked the Federal Government to allow states to have their own police structure and also immediately halt the various acts of terrorism, kidnapping, herders/farmers clashes in the country.
“This government can do, by immediately allowing states to have their own police. In fact, security apparatuses should be democratised to the local level. In the meantime, every community must be at alert to realise that they must defend themselves from bandits who seem to have declared war on Nigeria,” it said.
