A lawmaker has sharply criticised government authorities over the growing wave of insecurity affecting schools across Nigeria, following the recent abductions linked to Oyo State.

Speaking on the disturbing trend of attacks on educational institutions, the lawmaker argued that many political leaders have failed to demonstrate the urgency the situation demands because their own children are largely studying and living abroad.

According to the lawmaker, the continued targeting of schools by criminal groups has created fear among parents and students, raising concerns about the safety of children within the country's education system.

"Our children are not in Nigeria," the lawmaker said, suggesting that decision-makers may not fully appreciate the daily fears faced by ordinary Nigerian families whose children attend local schools.

The comments come amid renewed public concern over school security and the increasing threat posed by kidnappers and armed groups operating in different parts of the country. Security experts have repeatedly called for stronger intelligence gathering, improved surveillance, and better protection for schools, particularly in vulnerable communities.

The latest incident has reignited debate over the government's handling of insecurity, with critics demanding more decisive action to safeguard lives and restore public confidence.

As investigations and security operations continue, many Nigerians are calling for urgent measures to prevent further attacks and ensure that schools remain safe environments for learning.

He's talking about politicians children, not the victims.

He's saying that politicians cannot understand the challenges of the common man, because their kids are not in Nigeria

All of them trying to sound human and on the side of the downtrodden.

More reason security issues is being treated with levity

These bandits are useless, they should just kidnap the politicians and leave these innocent people alone

It's time to start investing in our border security....

Normal life.

If you think they are trying to sabotage the President, doesn't the President command troops?
But if it is Fubara matter now, he knows how to use power.

Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Criminals, APC are master strategists in playing politics with Nigerian lives and wellbeing. This is how they fight to grab power and run with it.

…says Nigeria experienced economic development during Jonathan’s administration

A former Governor of Ekiti State, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, on Tuesday, said the protest that trailed the fuel subsidy removal during the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan in 2012 was due to political interests.

Fayemi said this in his keynote address delivered at a national dialogue organised to celebrate the 60th birthday celebration of the founding National Secretary of Alliance for Democracy and Fellow, Abuja School of Social and Political Thought, Professor Udenta Udenta in Abuja.

The programme was attended by Jonathan, former Minister of Education, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili; former Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka, among others.

The PUNCH reports that on January 1, 2012, President Goodluck announced the removal of fuel subsidy and adjusted the pump price of petrol from N65 per litre to N141.

The decision sparked mass protests, tagged ‘Occupy Nigeria’ across major cities of the country.

The price was later re-adjusted to N97, after more than a week of protests.

Petrol price was later reduced to N87 in 2015.

Jonathan faced serious backlash for the fuel price adjustment, especially from leaders of the All Progressives Congress, who were then in different opposition parties, including the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, Congress for Progressives Congress, All Nigeria Peoples Party, and All Progressive Grand Alliance.

Some people who have heaped curses and insults on the man by mere reading the headline

nobody should blame Tinubu please.

fellow nigerians when you crown a clown , expect comedy.
when u crown an agbero & druglord, expect crime.

he is a former druglord who has no business in power.

All he knows is agberoism.

Typing what's on my mind now

If you supported kidnapping of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya by Nigeria government, but against this particular kidnapping, just know you are a hypocrite.







Facts.

You can't support APC and pretend you don't like what bandits and terrorists are doing in South West.

You can't be from the religion of peace and pretend you don't like what APC and terrorists aka bandits are doing in Nigeria especially south west.

Don't pretend you don't know that there's a very big relationship between APC, religion of peace and bandits.

Nigerians are caged and at same time doomed.

I learnt 145 billion naira was sent for safe schools initiative, what happened to that money?

No, we don't know what it takes because when the other party was in power, a similar incident occur. So could it be that it's a tit for tat situation that is playing out now? 😏😏😏

The misunderstanding stems from political bias and ethnocentrism. He wanted to fire the antimissile without studying the firework to know if it's enemy's arrow or neutral popups
