The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has slammed the Federal Government over the insecurity ravaging the country.

The Pastor said the federal government has failed to provide adequate protection for citizens, warning that Nigeria’s insecurity has evolved into a nationwide problem.

In a statement posted on his X handle on Friday, the cleric said killings, kidnappings, and violent attacks have become almost routine, leaving Nigerians terrified and unprotected.

He noted that the crisis is no longer confined to specific areas or groups but has spread across regions and religions.

According to him, “Nigeria is in the grip of a severe security crisis. Killings, kidnappings, and violent attacks have become almost routine, leaving citizens terrified and unprotected.

“This is no longer about one group, it has turned into a nationwide Nigerian genocide, affecting people across regions and religions.”

Ayodele said criminal groups now operate with boldness due to the absence of an effective national response.

“The sad reality is that criminals now operate with boldness because there is no effective national response. Security agencies are overstretched, and leadership is not providing the urgent direction the moment demands.”

He faulted President Bola Tinubu’s handling of the crisis, insisting that the president’s “most basic responsibility” is to secure the lives of Nigerians.

“A President’s most basic responsibility is to protect lives and secure the nation. If President Tinubu cannot guarantee the safety of Nigerians, then he has failed in his primary duty,” Ayodele said.
