Mamora proffers solution to insecurity

By DOTUN IBIWOYE

IKEJA—Former Senate Deputy Minority Leader, Senate Olorunnimbe Mamora, has said the panacea for  insecurity in the country is quality leadership and the sincere fight against corruption.

Mamora also noted that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences  Commission, ICPC, have not lived up to expectation.

He said this in Ikeja, yesterday, while urging the government to be thorough in its fight against corruption. According to him, corruption has eaten deep into all spheres of the national life of Nigerians  and was the major reason why the country was not able to win any medal at the recently-concluded London Olympic Games.

He said: “The improved quality of the leaders will certainly be the way to solve the present issues in the country.”
