Insecurity in Northern Nigeria Poses Anarchy Threat- Shettima

Vice President Kashim Shettima delivered a dire warning on Thursday, stating that the persistent attacks and insecurity afflicting northern Nigeria might escalate into anarchy

He urged citizens to refrain from sowing discord and dragging the country into chaos

During the commissioning ceremony of the 5-kilometer Masaka-Luvu road in Nasarawa State, Shettima emphasized the severe outcomes of unchecked violence.

It is easy to create unrest,” he cautioned, “but extremely difficult to restore peace once mayhem takes hold. We must prioritize actions that foster unity and harmony, not those that lead to anarchy.”

Shettima emphasized the futility of internal conflict, stating“There is no reason why we should be fighting each other. We should collectively stand against poverty, destitution, and backwardness, not engage in self-destructive strife.”

The Vice President praised Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule for his commitment to infrastructure development, specifically citing the Masaka-Luvu road as a notable example.
The project, intended to alleviate transportation challenges and create new economic opportunities, aligns with the Vice President’s call for collective efforts toward progress.

The contract for this road was awarded in January 2023 with a completion period of 12 months. Before now, coming to this part of the state was not an easy task because of the bad nature of the road. But I am happy that today, the road has been well constructed.

“I want to commend the contractor for delivering the project according to specifications, and I believe that this road will be here for at least the next 15 years,” Sule said.

Kanyi Daily recalls that the Vice President, Kashim Shettima had decorated Adewale Adeniyi as the new Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS).
