Tension is rising again in Nigeria’s Senate as Senator Victor Umeh has fired a strong warning at Senate President Godswill Akpabio over comments linking insecurity to 2027 politics.
Speaking on Channels TV, Umeh made it clear he does not want a personal clash, but he strongly disagrees with Akpabio’s claim.
According to him, blaming killings on political tension is dangerous and misleading.
Umeh questioned the logic behind the statement. He reminded Nigerians that even in years without elections, people were still being killed across the country. To him, insecurity in Nigeria is a serious daily problem, not something caused by politics.
There is something in the full discussion above that people are scrambling to see right now. Don’t miss out on what’s getting everyone talking. The moment is still trending fast, catch it before it slips away.
The senator also revealed he opposed the planned Senate security summit. He said a similar meeting in 2018 brought no real results, so repeating it would be a waste.
Instead, Umeh urged the government to face reality and fix the security system directly.
His bold stance has sparked fresh debate, and Nigerians are reacting fast.
