Declare state of emergency on security, Senate tells Buhari

The Senate on Wednesday asked the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), to declare a state of emergency on security without further delay.

The red chamber made the call following a point of order by Senator Sani Musa (APC, Niger East), on the abduction of students and staff of the Government Science Secondary School in Kagara, Niger State in the early hours of Wednesday.

Musa said the terrorist who whisked their victims away were dressed in military uniforms.
