President Bola Tinubu has assured Nigerians that his administration is committed to tackling the threats of terrorism and banditry across the country.
Speaking at the National Executive Council conference on Inclusive Growth and Sustainable National Development on February 9, the President emphasized the urgency of strengthening Nigeria’s security forces.
“And I am leaving here again to further find means to strengthen our security forces to defeat terrorism and banditry, that I promise you,” Tinubu said. “It is what has kept all of us sleepless at night, but I assure you that we will win with determination and resiliency. We will overcome this unacceptable terrorism and banditry; it’s not part of our culture, it’s foreign to us. So, it’s an economic encumbrance if we do not find a solution to it.”
His remarks come just days after attacks by religious extremists in Kwara State, which left 75 people dead and destroyed several properties.
