Recall that in recent times, sort from the incessant attacks by the Boko Haram terrorists, the northern states have continued to witness an increase in banditry activities leading to kidnapping of students and loss of lives.
To this end, as the nation continues to find a lasting solution to the menance, an elder statesman, Doyin Okupe has revealed that he has workable strategies that could help bring the incessant attacks and kidnappings of northern school children to an end within the space if three months.
The former presidential aide made this known in an open letter written to President Buhari on Monday.
The letter which was titled; “Request for an appointment to discuss my proposition on Kidnapping of School children” reads in part:
“I will greatly appreciate an appointment to meet with the President to discuss a proposition that I believe will help to end the incessant kidnapping of school children particularly in the north.”
“I strongly believe that if I am giving a chance to handle this disturbing and perplexing national malaise, I can help to put an end to this problem with support of the federal government and the backing of the Almighty God, in 2 to 3months maximum.”
Okupe said the President should look away from the fact that he’s a PDP member, and consider that the insecurity crisis rocking the country,us beyond being partisan, saying both the PDP and APC can only featured in 2023 elections if the present crisis is resolved, else it may jeopardize the forthcoming general election.
He added that he hoped that the President will grant him the opportunity to speak and share his workable ideas with him, as he could not have shared such strategies openly because of security reasons.
