Self-help on insecurity, the Ohuhu, Abia way as solution, by Adekunle Adekoya

Nigeria grapples with a persistent and pervasive insecurity crisis, prompting a critical examination of the nation's response. The author poses a rhetorical question: "what else can we do about insecurity that we haven’t done?" This query underscores a sense of urgency and a potential impasse in conventional security strategies.

The piece invokes the inherent resilience of the Nigerian people, describing them as "the most resilient group of peoples in the world." This characteristic is presented not just as a cultural trait but as a potential, yet perhaps underutilized, asset in addressing the complex security challenges facing the country.

While not explicitly detailing new strategies, the article points towards the possibility of implementing solutions that have not yet been fully explored or adopted. The mention of "self-help on insecurity, the Ohuhu, Abia way" suggests a focus on community-driven initiatives and localized approaches as a potential path forward. This implies a need to look beyond centralized, top-down security measures and consider the efficacy of grassroots efforts.
