Obi wrote: “I must, for the best interest of our nation, continue to add my voice against the ever-rising tide of insecurity in Nigeria.

“Above all, the viral insecurity has curtailed the freedom of our people to enjoy peace and happiness in a land of democratic freedom. Democracy without freedom from fear is a farce.

“Families are constantly left in agony over the killing of their loved ones by terrorists. Sadly, the monster of insecurity has continued to rear its ugly head in every part of the nation, leaving in its wake, tears, blood, and death.

“We must not allow the killing spree to continue in our nation. The life of every Nigerian matters and must be protected… We shall overcome.”

Obi called on the government to fish out the perpetrators of the attacks and ensure they are prosecuted.
