The actress made the statement in a post shared on her social media page on Tuesday, where she expressed concern over repeated s, ings, and the growing fear experienced by citizens in different parts of Nigeria.
Reacting to the situation, Kadiri said, “Give us power to defend ourselves,” stressing that many Nigerians currently feel helpless as insecurity continues to threaten lives and property.
She noted that citizens deserve stronger protection and practical solutions from the government, adding that safety should be treated as a fundamental right rather than a privilege.
Her statement has since generated widespread reactions online, with many Nigerians expressing similar concerns about the rising level of insecurity and calling for urgent government intervention.
Social media users echoed her sentiments, with one user, @EmekaTalks, stating that she only voiced what many Nigerians are afraid to say publicly, noting that citizens are increasingly tired of living in fear.
Another user, @DebbieWrites, wrote that the government must prioritize securing lives first, insisting that Nigerians should not have to beg for basic safety.
Kadiri’s remarks add to growing public discourse surrounding insecurity in the country, as several regions continue to experience s, kidnappings, and violent incidents despite repeated assurances from authorities.
Her call reflects increasing frustration among citizens and public figures who are demanding stronger security measures and faster responses from government and security agencies.
