Senate president, Ahmad Lawan, has cried out over various attacks in the country saying that no day passes without a Security breach.

Lawan’s comment is against the backdrop of a point of order 43 raised by the Senate deputy minority leader,  Emmanuel Bwacha, on an attack that took place in his constituency in Taraba State.

But Lawan, while speaking after Bwacha explained his point of order, said the security breach in the country is a source for concern.

Lawan added that the security committee report will soon be submitted expressing confidence that it will address all the lapses.

“Thank you, the minority leader. We have taken note of what you have said because you came under order 43.

“The Committee on Security will soon finish their work before we know what to do further. Of course, there is no day that passed without a security breach in one way or the order,” Lawan said.

Speaking earlier, Bwacha said officials in the Federal Ministry of Works went to his senatorial district for an assignment and he advised them to go with security men.

“As they were going, they ran into a huge crowd of bandits with bands on their head who rode on motorcycles armed with AK47 rifles.

“Mr. President, it is because insecurity is a topical challenge that we know.   On whether the insurgents are everywhere now is a matter not known to the public.

“Upon sighting the security agents,  they ran away and two of those bandits who were caught unaware abandoned their machines because they were not prepared to run.   The soldiers exchanged gunfire with them and took their two machines into their vehicles.

“Now this has heightened fears among citizens of Taraba and its environs.   It has given credence to speculations in the social media that they have planned an attack on communities around Yoro and Jalingo, the capital of Taraba State in a commando-style like it happened in Garkida,” Bwacha said.

On why the explanation was necessary, Bwacha said communities must wake up and complement the role of the military.

“At this point, I must also commend the people and government of Niger State for the role they play a few days ago.  I want to urge communities to wake up with the same style of Amotekun and protect themselves because our military is overstretched. They must form a new strategy to confront these people,” Bwacha added.
