Concerned about the unending security challenges faced by Nigerians, Catholic lawyers, through the National Association of Catholic Lawyers (NACL), have added their voice in calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to urgently convene a security summit. The lawyers who expressed their thoughts in a statement, tagged, “Security: A primary duty of government”, signed by the National President and Secretary, Barristers Chukwuma Ezeala and Angela Odunukwe, respectively, condemned criminal elements operating in the country. The lawyers cited provisions of the Federal Constitution, which states that the security of citizens was one of the primary duties of government. “We condemn in the strongest terms ever, the unbridled acts of criminal elements operating almost without hindrance, and we call on the Nigeria Police Force, the Armed Forces, and other law enforcement agencies, to redouble their efforts towards the fulfillment of their constitutional responsibility, for the security of lives and property of the average Nigerian,” the statement read. The Catholic lawyers expressed solidarity and condolences to all Nigerians and families that have been victims of various acts of criminality and deaths, as they (lawyers) urged them to seek consolation from God. They prayed that God would grant the affected families fortitude, to bear the irreparable loss. There are growing calls from various sectors of the population in Nigeria for a security summit that will address the high level of insecurity in the country
