The presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Adewale Adebayo, has warned that if nothing is urgently done to curtail the security challenge facing Nigeria, bandits will become the government and will be arresting the government.
The SDP flag bearer, who was reacting to the shutting down of all Unity Schools around the Federal Capital Territory by the Nigerian government over security issues, claimed government of President Muhammadu Buhari had shut down seven years ago.
He called on government officials to resign honourably if they cannot do their jobs so that those who are willing to work will take over and save the country from collapse.

Speaking to reporters in Abuja immediately after a closed-door meeting with the leadership of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Adebayo said: “The shutdown of the government school in FCT according to the government is to prevent kidnapping and other things attached. But before our schools were shut down the first thing that was shut down was the presidency,”
“The presidency has been shut down for the past seven years, the government has shut itself down. So, if we are not careful the government will be the bandits and the bandits will be arresting the government.
“We need to be serious, we need to work. We need the president to protect us we share so many things with the government but we can’t share law enforcement with the government.
“There can only be one Commander in Chief in the country. So the Commander in Chief must wake up and his service chiefs must wake up. And he must be capable of replacing them.
“The bandits are people government can deal with decisively. But we must have a government first; if we don’t have a government first all kinds of insults will come upon the country.
