First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has reassured Nigerians of President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to putt the country safe for all citizens, saying Nigeria will soon overcome its security challenges.
She also described the cases of kidnappings, banditry and killings across the nation as disheartening.
The fist lady added that a lot of efforts were ongoing to further secure the country and stamp out criminality, but these efforts could not be divulged publicly.
She disclosed this on Saturday in Ado Ekiti, during her engagement with Ekiti State traditional rulers, as part of her one-day working visit to the state.
She said, “President Tinubu has entered into partnership with developed countries like the United States of America and others, and is taking internal security measures to smash those terrorising the country and stoking the fire of killings and kidnappings across the geopolitical zones.”
Additionally, she said, “It is disheartening that we have this insecurity. A lot of foreign countries are helping our country. The US and some other developed countries are helping us in this matter.
“Some of those terrorising us are non-Nigerians. No matter what happens, we shall overcome. Nigeria is too great to be intimidated.
“Let us bear in mind that we have a great country. Challenges will come, but collectively, we can tackle them. I can assure you, we don’t have Mondays or Sundays; the President is working round the clock to get this matter resolved.
“God has been faithful. Let us be prayerful about our nation. It is prayers that have taken us this far.”
