Punch Newspapers Sections Afeez Hanafi The Association of Professional Bodies of Nigeria has said that insecurity in the country is becoming increasingly challenging, stressing that it is bad for the nation’s economy. This is just as the association appealed to the Federal Government to show commitment to engaging local professionals in project execution rather than opting for expatriates. A statement on Friday stated that the APBN President, Akin Oyegbola, disclosed these during the Board Meeting of the association sponsored by the Nigerian Institute of Building, a member of the APBN. He stated that the appointment of new service chiefs was a right step towards ensuring security of lives and property in the country, noting that there is a need for a peaceful atmosphere to attract foreign and local investors.
