Following the persistent gruesome killings and kidnappings in Plateau;  Benue, Kaduna, Abuja, and other parts of the Country, a Cleric of  Vion Pioneer Throneroom Trust Ministry, Apostle Emmanuel Nuhu Kure,has called on President Bola Tinubu to declare a state of emergency on security.

To him, the state of emergency on  in the country would help in the restoration of law and order, especially in the highly volatile communities in the North-east, North-west, North-central, and North-east.

Speaking during the monthly programme of the Ministry in Kafanchan, the headquarters of Jema’a local government of Kaduna State, Kure challenged Mr. President to give a marching order to the military and other security agencies to immediately tame the activities of criminals who derive pleasure in taking lives they did not give.

Kure further advised the Federal Government to provide sophisticated weapons for the military to confront the criminals who he noted are using better and more advanced weapons to carry out their nefarious activities.

As far as Kure is  concerned, Tinubu should be more determined and precise in addressing mirage of problems facing the country, especially now that he has won election petition cases up till the Supreme Court that were distracting him abinitio.

Kure, who is also the Chairman of the Southern Kaduna Christian Leaders Association, also challenged state governors in the North-central States and Kaduna State, to consider creating a joint security structure within the confines of the law, just like the Amotekun in the South-west.

He, however, warned that if the government failed to be deliberate in solving the daunting challenges the masses are currently facing especially security of lives and property,  God can intervene on behalf of those bombarding Him with requests for vengeance.
