Former Sokoto State Governor and Senator, Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, has raised concern over rising cases of killings, kidnappings and violent attacks across Nigeria, calling for urgent reforms of the country’s security architecture.
Wamakko made the call while speaking on the floor of the Senate in Abuja, warning that the worsening security situation poses a serious threat to national stability and public confidence.
According to a statement from his Media Office, the senator said protecting lives and property remains the core responsibility of government, stressing that the continued loss of innocent lives to criminal activity is unacceptable.
