The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) leadership in the north has criticized President Muhammadu Buhari’s handling of the security situation.
Sunday Oibe, the secretary-general of the association in the 19 northern states and the FCT, urged the President to uphold his constitutional duty by defending Nigerians and the nation’s sovereignty in a speech on Sunday in Kaduna, according to report.
The association expressed concern over the nation’s security situation.

Oibe said: “Nigeria is under siege by terrorists who are unleashing mayhem on the citizens and crippling economic and social activities across the country, particularly in states like Kaduna, Katsina, Zamfara, Niger, Benue, Plateau, Taraba, Kebbi, Sokoto and even Abuja, the seat of power.
“The continuous brazen and commando-like style, with which these terrorists operate unchallenged, even to the extent of issuing a threat to kidnap the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, is worrisome.”
Oibe insisted that no place in Nigeria is safe and urged Buhari and the national assembly to stop living in denial.
He underlined that the appropriate steps must be taken to put an end to terrorist and other criminal elements’ operations all across the nation.
