The current Security Challenges facing the country has been described as worrisome which is close to zero point.

The Deputy Senate Minority Leader at the Nigeria’s Red Chamber, Senator Emmanuel Bwacha disclosed this while interacting with Newsmen in his residence in Jalingo, Taraba State capital.

“Nigeria is sliding into the state of anarchy and needs prayers for God’s intervention”. Said the lawmaker.

He expressed worried over the overwhelming insecurity in the country that has destabilized every sector of life, saying it is that Nigerians need to submit the situation to GOD through prayers for a possible solution.

Emmanuel Bwacha, who is the Senator representing Taraba South said:

“I does not know how Nigeria got into this mess of bandits, where no place in the country is safe.

“The country is sliding into anarchy which is dangerous for us Nigerians, we need to pray hard for God intervention.

“The primary responsibility of every leader and government is to protect lives and property, i support the call for state of emergency on security to enable the country survive. It’s only when lives and properties are being protected that you can move and interact freely and as well enjoy the provision of nature.

“The Insecurity in the country is quite worrisome, we need God’s intervention. No place is safe in this country. I think God is not happy with us, we seriously need Prayers.

“The northeast is gradually moving to be a lawless zone, boiling violence, the Northwest has boiled and is gradually escalating to other zones of the country where if no proactive move is taking, we will not have the country standing again.

On the call by some Nigerians for President Mohammadu Buhari to resign, Sen. Emmanuel Bwacha said his opinion that:

“I do not support the call for President Buhari’s resignation over the increasing insecurity, i think God is not happy with us, Nigerians and we need to pray for forgiveness.”

While reacting to the continuous ethnic clashes in the southern zone of Taraba, the Senator suggested dialogue as the solution to end killings in the area.

He, however, urged people to engage in dialogue as the best option in solving issues than taking the laws into their hands.

“The crisis have brought a terrible situation, thereby making life difficult for the people.

“Our lands are filled with blood, everybody is guilty, corruption on the high. Everybody is involved in the mess that we are facing in the country.

According to him, he has been working out modalities with his Benue counterpart, Sen. Gabriel Suswam, whom his zone borders with, to ensure lasting peace and unity among the people.

The National lawmaker, therefore, encouraged Nigerians to be sober and look inward, adding that with God, all things are possible.

On 2023 Governorship in Taraba State, Senator Bwacha revealed that he is an advocate of Zoning.

“Any Senatorial Zone can produce a Governor come 2023 Governorship Seat.

“The Governorship Seat should start from the Southern Zone of the State, but where it pleases God, let it start from there. We are after competency and not enterprenuers. He pointed out.

On the current administration in the state, he said:

“Judgement is left to Tarabans, they should judge by themselves for the records are there. Taraba State need intervention. While on the People’s Democratic Party PDP in the State, he said:

Hammed Abubakar, Jalingo 

The Chairman Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Taraba State Chapter, has faulted claims by the Governorship Candidate of the APC, Senator Emmanuel Bwacha, that the Chairman of the association, Rev Dr. Isaiah Magaji Jirapye apologized to him over the endorsement of Col. Agbu Kefas, PDP Governorship candidate by CAN.

Jirapye said, “it was very unfortunate for the personality of Senator Bwacha to have lied on Channels Television that I, the CAN Chairman visited him secretly and apologized over the endorsement of Col Agbu Kefas by the CAN”.

He said that all that Senator Emmanuel Bwacha said about CAN during his interview with Channels TV should be regarded as baseless, adding that the embattled APC governorship candidate is busy chasing a white goose. 

According to the CAN Chairman, “the meeting between myself and Senator Bwacha after the endorsement of Col. Agbu Kefas was for him to take the endorsement in good fate since it was a  unanimous decision by CAN, but I am surprised to hear the Senator on Channels Television lying that I went to apologize to him over the endorsement. 

Jirapye urged Senator Emmanuel Bwacha to desist from dragging CAN in his desperation to govern the State for his selfish reasons. 

“CAN position on endorsement was a unanimous decision and not that of myself the Chairman alone so I  advise desperate politicians to desist from using my name for their selfish interests”.

CAN warns desperate politicians such as Senator Bwacha whom he said lack manners but called themselves Christians, and at the same time insult their spiritual leaders at will to trade with caution. 

CAN is shocked by the kind of outburst of cancerous anger from the Senator and pray God to deliver him from such a problem, saying People of Bwacha’s character should be watched carefully and never be entrusted with Leadership positions to govern the people. 

The Chairman noted that the endorsement of the PDP governorship candidate Col. Agbu Kefas by CAN was in the best interest of the people of the State.
