The pan Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, has lamented over the spike of insecurity in the country.

The group stated that Nigeria is becoming increasingly ungovernable, Naija News reports.

This was contained in a statement issued and signed by its national leader and Secretary, Chief Ayo Adebanjo and Chief Olusola Ebiseni, respectively.

Afenifere noted that Nigerians are now alarmed over the spate of insecurity in the country, adding that the citizenry can no longer sleep with both eyes closed.

The group lamented that scores of university students abducted in Zamfara are still with their abductors and their fate remains unknown.

They noted that inspite of the pretences the country was becoming increasingly ungovernable and evidently ungoverned

Afenifere added that ”military officers were mowed down shamefully in Imo State.

“With hunger in their belly, Nigerians cannot sleep with the two eyes closed. Nigeria is becoming increasingly ungovernable and evidently ungoverned, in spite of pretences.

On the proposed strike by the NLC, the group said that “since the removal of oil subsidy and other economic policies hastily pronounced without planning for the collateral effects, the Nigerian masses have been abysmally pauperised.

“In reacting and calling for mass action in this regard, the NLC is living to its historic responsibility.”
