Breaking: Let 'Responsible Citizens' carry guns, others – Ortom begs FG
Samuel Ortom, the Governor of Benue has advised  the Federal Government to consider foreign assistance in order to tackle insecurity in the country.
Ortom,who gave  the advice while inaugurating Army Day Secondary School, Effurun in Delta State,  said the situation has gone beyond Federal Government’s capacity  to tame.
He said that with the killings occuring daily and with heavy casualties, it had become very obvious that Federal Government had been overwhelmed by the unfortunate situation.
He said that governors whose states were being attacked had become helpless and frustrated, adding that it was shameful that Nigeria was in such terrible situation.
He also said that the major problem of insecurity occasioned by banditry, Boko Haram insurgency and other violent crimes in the country, was because the government hadn’t been proactive in providing the people education.
“If they were educated they would have found themselves something meaningful to do rather than occupying themselves in committing evil across the country.
“I say so because I believe in education and if you want to develop a people, give them quality education and so I must commend Governor Okowa for the quality school and for creating three new universities in Delta,” he said.
