I will pursue bandits, end insecurity within 6 months as president, says Wike
Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state, says he would end insecurity within six months if elected president.
Wike said his administration would provide the logistics and equipment necessary for the security agencies to end banditry in the country.
The governor spoke on Saturday at a meeting with PDP delegates in Abeokuta, Ogun state capital.
Wike asked the delegates to consider him for the party’s presidential ticket, adding that he will prioritise the protection of the lives and property of every Nigerian.
“Once there is insecurity you can’t do anything. You must have peace for investors to come in, for people to set up industries. So the basic thing in my first six months as president of Nigeria is to end banditry,” he said.
“All those bandits, let them wait for me. I will pursue them. It is my job. I will provide to security agencies whatever they require.”
