    Former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, has decried the way the prevailing security challenges have ravaged Zamfara communities and hamper agricultural production, thereby aggravating hunger and poverty in the agrarian state.

    The presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections stated this when he paid a condolence visit to the Emir of Gusau and the people Of Zamfara State in Gusau on Monday.

    His trip to the North-Western state followed the military strikes in the Tungar Kara community in the Maradun Local Government Area which claimed about 16 lives.

    Obi who was represented by spokesperson for the Labour Party, Tanko Yunusa,  expressed concerns that people who were supposed to be protected were the ones who lost their lives.

    His condolence message was delivered to the Emir of Gusau by Yunusa, who said whatever happens to the people of Zamfara happens to Peter Obi, which was why he sent him to come and commiserate with them before LP candidate Peter Obi would come in person.

    Obi attributed hunger and unemployment as factors responsible for the prevailing insecurity bedevilling Zamfara and the country at large, pointing out that if there is prosperity in the land, security becomes easier.

    He emphasised that if the country must be protected, there is a need to go back to the country’s root, which is production, not consumption, arguing that production is one of the sure ways Nigeria can overcome its current challenges of insecurity, hunger and unemployment hence the need for the for government prioritising it.

    The District Head of Tudun Wada Gusau Bashir Danbaba, who received Obi’s condolence message on behalf of the Emir of Gusau, thanked him for identifying with the people of Zamfara during this trying period.
