The National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, has said President Bola Tinubuโs policies on security was responsible for the elimination of bandit leaders like Dangote, Boderi, Ali Kawaje, and Damina.
Ribadu said banditry and terrorism activities have reduced since Tinubu assumed the mantle of leadership in Nigeria.
Speaking in Sokoto, the NSA pointed out that the Niger Delta has been peaceful under Tinubuโs reign unlike what was obtainable before his administration.
He assured that the current administration would not back down in its fight against bandits and those behind insecurity.
According to Ribadu: โAs I am talking to you, there is no known case of student abduction of students that is unresolved anywhere in the country. And where are banditsโ leaders like Ali Kawaje, Boderi, Damina and Dangote? They have all been eliminated.
โIn the past, we have had cases of organised terrorism attacks by insurgent groups like their attacks on our train, military formations, or churches. Since we got in there has not been anything like that.
โAnd go to Niger Delta, it is peaceful today. In the East people were been stopped and killed, there were over 40 police stations shut down but all of them are now functional. All these changes happened because we work.
โWe will continue to work. We are not jokers. We are serious and in Sha Allah, Nigeria will see the difference.โ
