The Senate committee chairman on local content, Mr Folarin, said daily media reports have shown that insecurity was rising in recent years.
He said, “There are more out-of-school children than ever before. There are more deaths from terrorist attacks and organised crimes than the previous years.
“There are cases of avoidable clashes of herders and farmers over land as well as resources. There are agitations for political self-determination within the country. All these are facts but dangerously familiar.”
According to him, where there are security challenges to the progress of the electorates, public infrastructure and resources and governance will be held hostage.
