The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, Omoyele Sowore, has promised to to eliminate terrorists in the country if he becomes president next year.
Sowore, a popular rights activist is one of the presidential candidates that recently won their parties’ nominations for the 2027 presidential election.
The AAC presidential candidate spoke on Thursday during an interview on Arise TV.
Apart from Sowore, incumbent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had recently won the All Progressives Congress, APC nomination while former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has also won the African Democratic Congress, ADC ticket to run for president next year.
They have all vowed to tackle the problem head on.
Some of the presidential candidate have outlined some of their plans to tackle the problem of insecurity currently ravaging the country, particularly the threats posed by Islamist Boko Haram and the Islamic State of West Africa, ISWAP.
Apart from the terrorists that have taken arms against the country, the nation’s security agencies are struggling to contain the activities of bandits who are spread across the country.
Not a few Nigerians insist that the federal government must rise up to the occasion by eliminating the threats post by these none state actors waging war of attrition against the nation.
According to Sowore, one of his broad-based security plan to eliminate the security threats is to use drone also known as Unmanned Area Vehicle, UAV to tackle the problems, describing new technological warfare as the only way of defeating the criminals.
“If I become Nigeria’s president tomorrow, my minister of defence will be a drone. That’s how much I believe in technology.
Adding that “I’m just going to have a control centre where people sit down and track terrorists and liquidate them.”
