Tinubu Orders Military to End Banditry and Insecurity by 2025
In a decisive move to tackle Nigeria’s security challenges, President Bola Tinubu has mandated the military to eradicate banditry and related criminal activities by the end of 2025.
This directive was conveyed by Minister of Defence, Abubakar Badaru, who emphasized the military’s unwavering commitment to this mission.
Minister Badaru highlighted the intensified military operations against bandits, noting that these criminal elements are currently in retreat. He assured that the armed forces will persist in their efforts until all threats are neutralized.
“The bandits are now on the run, but the military will not rest until we end this,” Badaru stated. “The president has given us marching orders to end insecurity in every part of our country by the end of this year.”
To bolster these efforts, the Minister has called for the acquisition of an additional 50 Armored Personnel Carriers in the 2025 budget, aiming to enhance the military’s operational capabilities against banditry nationwide.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
