Nigeria facing war without morality, people slaughtered without cause, Abdulsalami laments

Former Head of State, Abdulsalami Abubakar has decried the current spate of insecurity in Nigeria, saying that the country is facing a very hard time security-wise.

According to him, the war front ‘is everywhere’ and what the nation is facing is a war without any morality, where nobody is safe.

Abdulsalami spoke at the 38th Founders Day and 30th convocation ceremony of the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State.

He said, “We are facing a very hard time security-wise, where the war front is everywhere and this is a war without any morality. The old and the young are slaughtered without cause.

“Indeed, our security forces are overstretched. So it is left to all of us to join hands in making sure that we provide information where possible so that these insurgents could be chased out of our country.

“Avoid making our children, grandchildren as vanguards. Avoid abusing them and making them do what we know is wrong.

“For the youths, please avoid being used to be fronts of disharmony and violence in the country.”
