 Rabiu Kwankwaso has condemned the worsening insecurity in Nigeria, saying the situation has led to the rise in the number of widows and orphans across the country.

The former presidential candidate criticized what he described as poor governance and ineffective leadership, arguing that persistent attacks, banditry, kidnappings and communal violence have continued to devastate families and communities nationwide.

Kwankwaso stressed that insecurity remains one of Nigeria’s greatest challenges and called on leaders at all levels to prioritize the protection of lives and property. He also urged the government to adopt practical strategies aimed at addressing poverty, unemployment and social injustice, which he said contribute to unrest and criminal activities.

According to him, Nigerians deserve responsive leadership capable of restoring peace, economic stability and public confidence in governance. He warned that failure to tackle insecurity decisively could further worsen humanitarian and economic conditions in many parts of the country.
