Frank made the call in a statement on Sunday in reaction to
the fresh killing of soldiers in Borno State by suspected Boko Haram
insurgents.

He expressed concern over the rising wave of insecurity,
banditry, and kidnappings, describing the situation as a national tragedy that
requires urgent executive action.

According to Frank, Nigerians are being killed “like
chickens” daily across the North, South, East, and West, a clear indication
that the country’s security architecture has collapsed under the current
leadership.

“Our soldiers and policemen are dying in large numbers due
to poor funding and lack of proper equipment. Despite massive budgetary
allocations to the security sector, the funds do not reach the men and women on
the front lines, nor are they used to purchase the right equipment needed to
combat insecurity,” the statement read.

According to him, the continuous killings have attracted
international attention, and he commended US President Donald Trump and Senator
Ted Cruz for their advocacy on behalf of Nigerians, especially their
condemnation of the incessant killing of Nigerians in parts of the country.

Frank urged Tinubu to heed Trump and other United States of
America leaders’ counsel on insecurity.

“We commend President Donald Trump for his concern and moral
courage in speaking against the killings of Nigerians. We equally commend
Senator Ted Cruz for lending his voice to these injustices. Their actions have
helped to break the silence of our political class, especially those in the
ruling party,” the statement added.

“Nigeria has always maintained a cordial relationship with
the United States. We will not allow any government or individuals to destroy
that friendship. As Nigerians, we remain committed to strengthening our ties
with the U.S. in the interest of peace, democracy, and global security,” he
said.

He lambasted the Nigerian Senate for criticising Ted Cruz
over his comments about the killing of innocent Nigerians, describing them as a
“disgrace and disappointment.”

“If the Senate and, by extension, the National Assembly had
faithfully and diligently carried out their constitutional mandate of oversight
and representation in checkmating executive recklessness, like the continued
detention of Nnamdi Kanu and getting the security chiefs to act in protecting
the lives and property of Nigerians, Senator Ted Cruz would not have picked on
Nigeria as a good example of unwarranted killings and intimidation of innocent
citizens by deadly gangs.

“Look at how they took their time to respond to Senator Ted
Cruz’s comments, while they failed over the years to stand for justice by
calling for the release of Nnamdi Kanu or to ensure through their oversight
powers that the security chiefs live up to their mandate to protect defenceless
Nigerians from horrific attacks and killings,” he said.
