The Federal Minister of Information, Labaran Maku has called on the main opposition party, All Progressives Congress to stop playing politics with the insecurity situation in the country.
Speaking to State House correspondents after the weekly Federal Executive Council meeting held yesterday, Maku reminded the APC that 90% of the insecurity happening in the country is in states controlled by the party.
Maku said, “The entire money we are spending is to maintain security in states controlled by that party. So why do you come back and start playing politics?
“We are busy spending money to maintain security in those states, what have they done about it? Because 90 per cent of all insurgency is in states controlled by that party, 90 per cent of those campaigning to bring back Chibok girls are members of that party.
“I think that honestly if we want this country to grow, we must ask the relevant questions. The Chibok girls remain our number one priority, we will never sleep, we will not rest until God brings them out.
“The Federal Government is a fire fighter. We did not create this insurgence or the structure that led to them, you know where they came from but you are now blaming the fire fighter for the fire.”
