Former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Dr. Obadiah Mailafia, says if the government of President Muhammadu Buhari fails to protect Nigerians, regional warlords like Sunday Igboho, Nnamdi Kanu and others will provide the much needed protection the citizens need.
Mailafia, a former Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), and staunch critic of the Buhari-led administration, who spoke in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State on Thursday during a visit to Governor Seyi Makinde, lamented the carnage and killing of over 20 people in Igangan, Ibarapa North Local Government Area of the state by suspected Fulani herdsmen who invaded the community last weekend.
Mailafia said the incident and the insecurity in every part of the country is as a result of the failure of government both at the Federal and state levels.
The ex-CBN Deputy Governor called on Buhari to visit Igangan and other communities across the country where Nigerians have been killed to commiserate with the victims.
