I've just read the full transcript of the Press conference addressed by the State Security Service aka DSS delivered yesterday, and I am seriously frightened. I can easily concluded, that the DSS, supposedly the nation's highest intelligence organization has confirmed that the country is under the hostage by terrorists, bandits and kidnappers. The DSS did more in the press conference, advising Nigerians, including the state protected Nigeria's political class to stay away, run away, and avoid exercising our freedom of movement to the limit, because the Nigerian state can no longer guarantee our security. In fact, to confirm my fear, as raised by the DSS, a serving member of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, Hon Rilwanu Gadagau was killed by terrorists in Zaria, less than 24hrs after this alarm was raised. In fact, part of the worrisome aspect of the press statement, is the appeal by the Service, to these criminal elements, to drop their planned attack. A sound of helplessness. Any doubt about the reality of a total breakdown of law and order in the country? Today, northern youth in various parts of the country made attempt to draw the attention President Buhari to their agony, through peaceful protests in Abuja and a Press conference by the CNG in Kano, they were met with the resistance of Armed Security agents from the Police and same DSS, that raised alarm about the heightened Insecurity in the land. Some were unlucky, they were arrested and brutalized. In the middle of all these, a man who supposedly represent leadership to some airheads, is prioritizing answering the call to contest for the Presidency come 2023. Are they even working to have a country by 2023, before thinking of ruling it by 2023. If you have listened to the DSS statement, and think all is well, because you live in Lagos, Abuja or some 'safer' part of the Southern Nigeria, I can assure you, that you're on a long thing. No where is safe. The days ahead are loaded with danger. An insecure North poses more security threat to the 'secured' South. Virtually every parts of the country, are now surrounded by criminal elements, that the Nigeria State is exhibiting helplessness in combating. I beseech everyone to stay safe, avoid undue traveling especially for yuletide celebration, as much as possible. May Nigeria not sacrifice you for the incompetence of the tragic leadership in power. Nigeria is in Danger. Olufemi Lawson Lagos, 15-12-2021.
