Ex-presidential hopeful and former CBN official, Onwusoanya Ezendigbo, has expressed deep concern over the escalating insecurity affecting various parts of Nigeria.
He stated that addressing insecurity effectively requires job creation at all levels of government. Ezendigbo, who ran as an independent candidate in the 2023 presidential election, shared his views in a statement released on Saturday.
“No peace without security. Unemployment and poverty are driving insecurity in Nigeria. When people have legitimate work, they are less likely to turn to crime.
“People are hungry. Nigeria should not be poor. To combat crime, we must create jobs for our people. The economy flourishes when there is a skilled workforce,” he stated.
Ezendigbo also criticized the rampant corruption within the nation’s institutions and urged political leaders to fulfill their responsibilities.
“Our country is one of the largest oil producers in the world, yet we import the fuel we consume. We have the highest number of foreign doctors in the UK and the US, yet our leaders travel abroad for medical treatment.
“We shoot unarmed protesters while negotiating with bandits. We rehabilitate terrorists, but their victims languish in refugee camps.
“Countries like the UAE and Qatar have transformed deserts into paradises, yet Nigeria, once a paradise, seems to be descending into chaos.”
“When corruption is rewarded and honesty becomes a rare virtue, it signifies a doomed society,” Ezendigbo added.
