President Tinubu’s approach to security issues yielding good results – NSA

The National Security Adviser (NSA), Malam Nuhu Ribadu says the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has recorded significant success in the fight against insecurity in the country.

Ribadu spoke on the security situation in the country at the ongoing 19th Annual Nigerian Editors Conference (ANEC) in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state on Thursday, which has as theme: “Stimulating Economic Growth, Technological Advancement: Role of the Media.”

The NSA said though the current administration inherited a tough period, they have had a lot of breakthroughs in the security sector since his assumption of office.

Highlighting success recorded in the area of security, the National Security Adviser said “we have witnessed three weeks without any incident of security challenges in the Niger Delta. This is the first time since 1993.”

Concerning the tensed situation in the southeast region, Ribadu said “In the Southeast, when we took over last year, we had 46 police stations attacked, today we don’t have one single one.

“In the last two months, not a single person had been killed through the violent attack in the southeast. The leadership we have in our country does understand things a bit better.”

He called on everyone to join hands with the government in combatting other forms of insecurity as there is still room for improvement in the fight against insecurity in all regions of the country.
