President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, (CAN), Reverend Samson Ayokunle has condemned the abduction of 180 pupils of Bethel Baptist College, Kaduna on Monday by gunmen, noting that President Muhammadu Buhari has lost grip on the leadership of Nigeria.
The CAN president also lamented the president’s inability to tame rising insecurity, saying kidnapping and abduction are now a thriving business in Nigeria and it is almost becoming synonymous with the leadership of the President. He urged the president to seek foreign assistance before it is too late.
The CAN president further said that Nigeria has now become a wasteland and a land that is devouring its inhabitants in the hands of this present leadership and requested Buhari to summon all the security chiefs and cause them to explain why the criminals are operating with ease in Nigeria without being brought to book.
Ayokunle observed that the situation in Kaduna has become quite terrible because Governor Nasir el-Rufa’i appears to be talking too much than acting and also urged President Buhari to caution the governor.
He warned that the story of these 140 innocent pupils of Bethel Baptist College, Kaduna must not be like the story of some Chibok girls who are still missing till date despite promises by the present administration in 2015 to rescue them if it wins the election.
Ayokunle insisted Buhari must ensure a safe return and reunion of all the pupils to their families and others in captivity.
