The All Progressives Congress (APC) has alleged that a North-West governor is behind the heightened cases of banditry, abductions and other violent crimes in the region.
Yekini Nabena, Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the party, made the allegation in a statement released on Thursday.
While the name of the governor was not revealed, the ruling party urged security agencies in the country to launch investigation into an intelligence report which it claimed indicted the governor.
The APC also warned the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) against seeking political gains from issues of insecurity.
“Our security agencies have intelligence reports linking one of the Northwest governors to collusion and sponsorship of violent and criminal activities of bandits. I won’t give details because of the sensitive and security nature of the issue,” the statement read.
“However, relevant security agencies must as a matter of urgency, investigate the report and determine its veracity. Human life is not what we should play political chess games with.
“We must shun enemies of the country including the PDP who seek political gains from issues of insecurity.
“Our security agencies must also be alert to plots to further destabilise the Northwest region and frustrate the quick and safe release of students abducted from the GSSS.”
