The federal and Bauchi State governments have been asked to provide adequate security to discourage Boko Haram insurgents escaping from either Adamawa, Borno or Yobe states from using Bauchi State as their sanctuary.
.
The Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, and the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, made the call at separate interviews with Vanguard in Bauchi, yesterday.
.
CAN said that apart from Bauchi, the security agencies should also beam their searchlights on the other northern states where there is no state of emergency to prevent fresh crises in those places, saying that miscreants should be stopped from making life difficult for law-abiding members of the society.
.
The state Secretary of CAN, Rev. Joshua Rai Mains, who reacted to the on-going military campaign in the three states said that residents of Bauchi State expected tight security in the state to prevent criminals from infiltrating into it.
I don't even think just that state alone needs tighter security. Almost all the states in Nigeria need to tighten their security to avoid disaster.
