Insecurity: Tinubu Promises To Eliminate Boko Haram, Bandits, Kidnappers

President Bola Tinubu has assured Nigerians that he would eliminate threats of Boko Haram, bandits and kidnappers.​


President Tinubu said the armed forces and other security agencies have intensified actions against insecurity. He commended security personnel for the successes recorded so far in addressing insecurity across the country.

The President stated this on Tuesday, in his Independence Day address.

He noted that through the support of his administration to security agencies, peace has been restored to hundreds of communities in the North.

His words: “On the security front, I am happy to announce to you, my compatriots, that our administration is winning the war on terror and banditry. Our target is to eliminate all the threats of Boko Haram, banditry, kidnapping for ransom, and the scourge of all forms of violent extremism.

“Within one year, our government has eliminated Boko Haram and bandit commanders faster than ever. As of the last count, over 300 Boko Haram and bandit commanders have been eliminated by our gallant troops in the Northeast, Northwest, and some other parts of the country.

“We have restored peace to hundreds of communities in the North, and thousands of our people have been able to return home. It is an unfinished business, which our security agencies are committed to ending as quickly as possible. As soon as we can restore peace to many communities in the troubled parts of the North, our farmers can return to their farms. We expect to see a leap in food production and a downward spiral in food costs. I promise you, we shall not falter on this.”
