    Run to Mr. President for Protection, ABSU VC, Ogbulu Advises Nigerians
    …As school holds combined convocation

    The Vice Chancellor of Abia State University, Uturu, ABSU, Prof. Onyemachi Maxwell Ogbulu has enjoined Nigerians not to hesitate to run to President Mohammadu Buhari for safety, if under any form of threat, saying he is the Chief Security Officer of the country.

    The Vice Chancellor who holds a Ph.D in Finance from Abia State University, Uturu, (2007), lamented that the issue of security, in accordance with the constitution “lies squarely on the President and not even the Governor”, he said.

    He described insecurity as a Global challenge, stressing that same which is neither restricted to Abia State, nor the Southeast region is rampaging the entire Nigerian nation, adding, “Abia State is the safest state in the country and even in the South East as a whole. So, it’s a common problem everywhere but all we can think of is how to come out of this problem.

    “Security is on the exclusive list of the Constitution. Let us face facts. It is strictly the duty of the President of a nation to protect lives and property and not the Governor, nor the local government chairman or any other rather it is the duty of the President, because he is the Commander of Armed Forces of the country.
    So, if anybody in this country is under threat, then we should go to the President to be secured”, he insisted.

    He, however, commended the various security agencies, ranging from the Army, Police, etc -or their support in providing security to the University and the ambient communities.

    “But, within the confines of what is available to us, we have argumented our own resilient security with some of the security personnel like the Police, Army, DSS, and they have been very very helpful. They’re always around; the Police, the DSS, all of them are working in tandem and I sincerely appreciate them. We’ll do everything whatsoever to secure the lives and property of our students”, he added.
