Tinubu: I’m Not Satisfied with Nigeria’s Security Situation… 

President Bola Tinubu, yesterday, reviewed the country’s security situation and declared that he was not satisfied with the current state.

Tinubu declared that he would not relent until insecurity became a thing of the past across the country, stressing that protection of lives and property remains the top priority of his government.

Speaking in Maiduguri at the palace of Shehu of Borno, Alhaji Abubakar Ibn Umar Garbai Al-Amin El-Kanemi, the president grieved again over the recent military bombing of civilians in Kaduna State, and said, “We are not satisfied yet, we are not satisfied until we reach the end of insecurity in Nigeria.”

Tinubu added that security issues would remain a top priority under his watch, and they would not be limited to battlefield concerns.

He also pledged that the federal government would continue to do all within its powers to provide support and care to families of all Nigerians affected by insecurity in parts of Borno State.

Expressing his condolences one more time to the families of Nigerians, who lost their lives in the Tudun Biri, Kaduna State, tragedy, Tunubu said most of the victims lost their lives while reciting the Shadada as they observed Maulud, a central statement of faith for practising Muslims.

The president commended the Shehu of Borno for supporting the state and the federal governments in maintaining peace and stability in the region.  He promised to enhance the involvement of traditional institutions in the maintenance of peace and stability at the grassroots across the country.

Borno State Governor Babagana Zulum said under the Tinubu leadership, the Office of the National Security Adviser had worked diligently to connect all branches of the country’s security architecture by closely coordinating missions and enhancing inter-agency intelligence sharing at all levels.

Zulum acknowledged the steady improvement in collaboration between the security agencies and the Borno State government.

The Shehu of Borno urged the president to deliver his infrastructural interventions to areas that had been hard hit by insurgency over the years.

In a related development, Tinubu, while declaring open the Chief of Army Staff Annual Conference 2023 in Maiduguri, reiterated that he would continue to work diligently to provide the military the necessary support to keep troublers of the nation at bay.

The president said he would not relent in his effort to secure Nigeria, emphasising that he will win the battle to keep the country safe.
