Terrorists can attack Aso Rock if urgent action is not taken – Ladoja warns Buhari

A former Oyo State Governor, Senator Rasidi Ladoja has warned President Muhammadu Buhari that terrorists may attack the seat of power, Aso Rock if urgent action is not taken to address the growing spate of insecurity in the country.

Ladoja stated that Aso Rock can be attacked if terrorists can go to the extent of attacking the advance convoy of the President.

He stated this while speaking with journalists at his private residence Bodija, Ibadan, for the Eid-el-Kabir festival on Saturday.

KEMI FILANI NEWS recalls that Buhari’s security team was attacked on Tuesday by some suspected terrorists in Katsina State.

Ladoja said, “For the terrorists to have even gone to the extent of attacking the convoy of the president is damning and worrisome.

“That means that they can even attack Aso Rock, which is the official residence of Mr. President. If high profile kept at Kuje Prisons could be freed by terrorists, that means that one day, we will just hear that they have entered Aso Rock. This calls for serious concern.

“Though we have to continue to pray, but prayers alone cannot stop insecurity and other forms of attacks, we have to be very visible to and sensitise our people.

“The situation is getting worse and very recently, Zamfara State governor told his people in the state to acquire arms and ammunition to defend themselves.

“So, if anybody carries arms in Zamfara State, can he be arrested by the security agents. Mr President and other relevant security stakeholders should be more active and strive to checkmate the worsening security situation in the country”.
