Zulum on his part, appreciated Governor Wike for his concerns and good gestures towards Borno State in the fight against insecurity.

He charged the presidential hopeful and others like him to ensure they put the unity and peace of Nigeria above their personal interests.

The Borno Governor submitted that regardless of party affiliation, everyone must work together to protect and strengthen Nigeria’s democracy.

Meanwhile, the President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Samson Ayokunle, has disclosed that the 2023 general election might not hold if the current insecurity in the country continues.

Ayokunle made this known during a security dialogue retreat jointly organised by the Global Peace Foundation and Vision Africa in Abuja on Monday.

The CAN president expressed fear that bandits and terrorists will overrun the country before the forthcoming elections if their activities are not checked.

He, however, asked the Muhammadu Buhari-led government to expose those financing terrorism and insecurity in the country and bring them to book.
