… Blames FG for security breakdown in Anambra

Abiodun OBA

 

It has been asserted that the greatest contributors to GDP growth are intangible assets, which is security, law and order, and even the behaviour and statement of the leaders.

Former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, made this known in an interview on The Morning Show, an Arise TV programme on Monday.

He expressed displeasure at the recent statement made by the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, AGF Abubakar Malami, ahead of the November 6 governorship election in the state.

Speaking on the issue  Obi said the Federal Government shouldn’t be talking about State of Emergency.

According to him, “People in government, when they make statements, should always, first of all, evaluate and think about the implications of their statement to the overall wellbeing of the country.

“People don’t know that the greatest contributors to GDP growth are intangible assets, which is security, law and order, and even the behaviour and statement of the leaders.

“The statement of leaders can actually hurt the place. So leaders must always ensure that their words have always gone through scrutiny.

“That statement from the attorney general shouldn’t be. More so, he’s the attorney general of the federation, not of the federal government or APC.

“The Federal Government should not talk about a state of emergency. 

Failure of security in Anambra state is their failure because they are in charge of security. Unless they are saying, they’re going to declare a state of emergency on the country.”

Recall that Malami had said the spate of violence in the state might see the Federal Government declaring State of Emergency just to ensure that the election holds on the scheduled date.
