Former Kaduna Governor, Senator Ahmed Makarfi has bemoaned the rising insecurity witnessed in the North-West region of the country, which is where President Muhammadu Buhari is from.

Commissioning the 2.4km long Ahoada-Ekpena road project in the Ahoada East Local Government Area of River State, on Thursday March 3, Makarfi stated that insecurity in the zone has lingered and worsened under Buhari’s watch.

He said; 

“You mentioned issues of security, you are largely secured here compared to where I come from. Of course, it’s not the PDP governing there.

“We are not all secured all over the zone, which is the North-West zone. We are largely insecure and we have a president from that zone. It is regrettable.

“Therefore, the only way out is for the PDP to come back to power, and we shall come back to power by the grace of God”
