“Nigeria’s political, economic and social fabric is disintegrating due to the foundation of the country and something urgent must be done,” Managing Director/Editor-in-Chief of the online newspaper, Gabriel Akinadewo, said in a statement on Sunday.
“Insecurity does not recognise a Christian or Muslim, it has no respect for APC or PDP. The security situation now is precarious. We must do a proper x-ray of the foundation of our security, our economy, our politics for Nigeria’s future to be secured.”
