Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential hopeful, Peter Obi, has said that government needs to be decisive against terrorists to protect schools and the society.

Obi stated this on Thursday during a visit to Practicing Nursery and Primary School, Agulu, Anambra State.

Obi said he is particular about enhancing the quality of education in Nigeria because it determines the level of development.

Asked what he thinks should be done to salvage schools from the dangers of insecurity, following the kidnap of pupils and teachers in Oyo State, Obi said it all depends on the decisiveness and will power of the government in power to tackle the situation.

“I tell you, we do not only need to secure our schools from insecurity but also the society. And how we can do this is by being decisive.

“I have been in government before and we knew what we did to ensure safety in Anambra. It needs decisiveness and will power of the people in government for us to defeat them,” he said.
