John Enenche: Peter Obi can tackle Nigeria’s security challenges
Maj-Gen John Enenche (retd.), a former coordinator of defence media, believes that Peter Obi, the Labour Party's presidential candidate, has what it takes to resolve Nigeria's alarming security issues.

On Tuesday, he appeared on a Channels TV programme.

Enenche claimed that he first met Obi in 2006 when he succeeded Chris Ngige as governor of Anambra State.

“As it were then, there was no Operation MESA in Onitsha in Anambra State. Criminals and agitators were doing whatever they liked. He made presentations and they approved Operation MESA for him and I was the operations commander.

“As it were when he came, the problem was so serious that police were prevented from even doing their work inside Onitsha town. His Excellemcy, Peter Obi, when he Operation MESA was permitted, all that we needed was provided,” he said.

Asked if Obi has what it takes to end Nigeria’s security challenges, he said, “If what we did in Anambra State then and what even the police confirmed, yes, it will. I can tell you that he will be in command and control and he will be available 24/7, he will be passionate.”

Enenche has been in the news of late after he declared support for Obi. The inclusion of his name in the presidential campaign list of Obi also stirred controversy which forced the Labour Party to remove him as a member of the campaign team.
