Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former Coordinator of Defence Media, Maj-Gen John Enenche (rtd), on Tuesday expressed optimism that the Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi, if elected president would tackle the security crisis rocking the nation.<\/p>\n

Speaking with Channels TV, Gen Enenche recalled how the former Anambra governor restored security in Onitsha and other parts of Anambra while serving as governor of the state.<\/p>\n

Enenche revealed that he first met the Labour Party candidate in 2006 when criminals and agitators were wreaking havoc in the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs it were then, there was no Operation MESA in Onitsha in Anambra State. Criminals and agitators were doing whatever they liked.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe made presentations and they approved Operation MESA for him and I was operations commander.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs it were when he came, the problem was so serious that police were prevented from even doing their work inside Onitsha town.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis Excellency, Peter Obi, when<\/p>\n

Operation MESA was permitted, all that we needed was provided,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Asked if Obi has the capacity to end Nigeria\u2019s security challenges, Enenche said, \u201cIf what we did in Anambra State then and what even the police confirmed, yes, it will. I can tell you that he will be in command and control and he will be available 24\/7, he will be passionate.\u201d<\/p>\n
