LAGOS—The Federal Government has assured Nigerians that security of delegates to the forth-coming National Conference will be given top most priority, even as members of the National Assembly have been warned not to frustrate the yearnings of Nigerians.

The Speacial Adviser to the President on Political Affairs, Alhaji Ahmed Ali Gulak spoke in a telephone interview with Vanguard Wednesday.

He said that the Federal Government would go the extra mile to protect the lives of the delegates and the vital facilities that would be committed to the business of the National Conference.

According to Alhaji Gulak,”we do not foresee any threat to lives of the delegates but we will not leave anything to chance because this is a major political programme of the Jonathan admisitration and the success of this programme will advance peace, unity and development in the country”.

He said the experience of the 2010 Golden jubilee celebration that was bombed remains fresh in the minds of the Federal Government “and we are sure that some evil minded people would want to embark on such  risky venture just to truncate the National Dialogue, but those who would attempt such thing would meet their waterloo.

Gulak said “the national security agencies would be placed on alert to frustrate any plot to destabilise the work of the National Conference when ever it is inaugurated by the President Goodluck Jonathan”.
