Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Coalition of the Northern Groups, CNG, has lamented the alarming rate of killings, kidnapping, and general insecurity across the country.<\/p>\n

CNG\u2019s Director of Strategic Communications, Ismail Musa said President Muhammadu Buhari should return Nigeria back to the era of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, when the country experienced minimal level of insecurity.<\/p>\n

Musa made the call while featuring on a launch time discourse on Vanguard live on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

He berated the President over his handling of insecurity in the country.<\/p>\n

According to Musa: \u201cWhat we are begging them for now is, you know human life is very important in fact it\u2019s very key.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you can do something, in fact if you can take us back to the insecurity you met onboard that will be tolerable to a large extent to say well he has taken us back to Jonathan\u2019s standard we are crying about, I mean the killings at that time the statistics are there to speak for themselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo really as far as I am concerned it\u2019s unfortunate we have these kinds of people ruling us by this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Insecurity has been on a steady rise under the Buhari government with kidnapping, killings, banditry becoming a norm.<\/p>\n

Some States in the Northern part of the country have witnessed more activities of banditry.<\/p>\n
