President Bola Tinubu has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to tackling terrorism and banditry across Nigeria.
Speaking on Monday at the National Executive Council (NEC) conference on Inclusive Growth and Sustainable National Development in Abuja, Tinubu praised governors from Borno, Katsina, and Kaduna for their efforts in protecting the nation’s security.
“And I am leaving here again to further find means to strengthen our security forces to defeat terrorism and banditry, that I promise you. It is an economic encumbrance if we do not find a solution to it,” the president said, adding that the fight against insecurity is critical to national stability.
Tinubu assured Nigerians that his government will overcome terrorism and banditry, describing it as foreign to the country’s culture.
On economic matters, he said his administration is strengthening macroeconomic stability through improved revenue, public financial management, and infrastructure development across transportation, power, digital connectivity, housing, and irrigation, all aimed at fostering inclusive growth.
