Insecurity in Nigeria: World Risks Humanitarian Crisis of 200 Million People – African Youth Leader Aina Segun
The coordinator of the African Youth Union Commission, AYUC, Aina Segun Aina, added to the deteriorating security situation in the country by saying that the world is risking the humanitarian crisis for the entire Nigerian population.
In an exclusive interview with DAILY POST in Abuja, Mr. Aina claimed that since independence in 1960, Nigeria has not experienced the level of insecurity that is currently plaguing the entire nation.
He said: âThe security situation in Nigeria is arguably the worst and most dangerous time in the country’s history, while we do not underestimate the work and efforts of the military and security agents at this point in time. The solution to this threat is not just to address the challenges physically but also to listen attentively to other Nigerian emergencies. “
As they responded to the controversial speech by President Muhammadu Buhari on the just completed 76 support from world leaders.
In his opinion, âwe need all the support we can get at this point in time, and we expect our government to ask for it at this point, especially during Mr President’s presentation to world leaders at the recently concluded UN -General Assembly “. .
âToday the world cannot afford a humanitarian crisis of 200 million people and therefore needs to be familiarized with the situation in Nigeria in terms of technology and information acquisition in order to put an end to these challenges.
The AYUC coordinator in Nigeria complained that most of the youth in the country were unemployed and alleged that some politicians were feeding fat to the detriment of the poor youth.
âSome of the signs we are getting out of hand is the fact that we have a huge population of youth who are unemployed and live in a society that harbors garbage and government excesses at the expense of these poor masses.
âSecond, education is currently the worst, and our massive youth is becoming increasingly inactive, finding crime and banditry as alternative activities.
âOur financial institutions, and regulators in particular, are acting in ways that are culpable in combating Nigeria’s security challenges.
âGiven the complexity and technological development of financial services in Nigeria, institutions need to explain to us why we have not heard about the freezing of accounts used to fund terrorism, banditry and ransom collection in Nigeria. And also to imagine that some criminals freely trade in POS terminals and still get away with them leaves a lot to explain to the world of the CBN.
Speaking about President Buhari’s new request for further external credit approval, Aina Yusuf noted that the Nigerian government was only concerned about credit and had forgotten the plight of the masses.
According to him, many Nigerians, especially unemployed youth, are malnourished due to the inability to buy essentials in the market due to soaring food prices.
âThe economic crisis in the country has continued to devastate Nigerians and the government shows no signs of concern in their own country, suffering to death.
“Nigeria does need help, otherwise the world risks a crisis of over 200 million people, made up of a large number of uneducated and unskilled people,” he added.
