Tinubu Promises to Track Down All Wrongdoers and Make Nigeria Safe for Everyone
President Bola Tinubu has promised that Nigerians who engage in harmful activities will face severe legal consequences.
He stressed that his administration would not tolerate misconduct or threats to the nation’s peace, whether these offenders are within the country or operating from abroad.
Speaking through the National Security Advisor (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu, during the graduation ceremony of the Executive Intelligence Management Course 17 at the National Institute for Security Studies (NISS) in Abuja, Tinubu made it clear that justice will catch up with anyone endangering Nigeria’s security.
“If you are causing harm to Nigeria, no matter where you are, we will find you.
You will be held accountable for your actions,” Ribadu stated, reiterating the President’s unwavering resolve to maintain law and order.
The ceremony, which marked a significant milestone for senior security officials completing their advanced training, also saw remarks from the Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), Adeọla Ajayi.
Ajayi stated the importance of cooperation among Nigeria’s various security agencies in tackling the country’s challenges.
He emphasized, “Collaboration is key. We are witnessing an unprecedented level of synergy between the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) and the NSA, which is driving a more unified front against insecurity.
When we work as one, no threat can defeat us.”
Ajayi expressed optimism about the nation’s future security, assuring citizens that progress is underway.
“Soon, Nigerians will sleep peacefully, without fear.
This is the direction set by the President, and we’re fully committed to delivering on this promise.”
He also conveyed gratitude for his appointment, pledging loyalty and dedication.
“I thank President Tinubu for the trust placed in me. I am committed to upholding this responsibility and ensuring our collective safety.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and ex-Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi are reportedly in talks to join the Social Democratic Party (SDP), according to Adewole Adebayo, the SDP’s presidential candidate in the 2023 elections.
Adebayo revealed this during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, where he shared that discussions are ongoing through close associates of both Atiku and Obi. He mentioned that the SDP is open to welcoming them into the fold.
He added that the party had recently admitted a former governor from Kaduna State, who is also a key member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), signaling a shift in the political landscape. Adebayo emphasized that the SDP is experiencing growth as more individuals join, but there is a need for a cultural shift in politics, particularly regarding internal rules and procedures.
When asked directly about Obi’s potential move to the SDP, Adebayo confirmed that while talks are taking place, nothing is official until a formal announcement is made. He mentioned that he had received updates from party officials, including the Financial Secretary, about the ongoing discussions.
Adebayo also stressed that the SDP would only accept politicians who align with the party’s values and adhere to its democratic processes. “If they are willing to follow our transparent and credible internal processes, we can work together to offer Nigerians a real alternative,” he added.
Former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani declines invitation to judge the Miss World Nigeria Beauty Pageant.
It was reported that the position of a judge was offered to Shehu Sani by Ben Murray Bruce, founder of Silverbird Group. However, Sani rejected the offer to judge the event.
Ben Bruce takes to social media to invite the former senator to be present at the event and sit as a judge.
Shebu Sani then responded by stating “You should have send me a formal letter and with full benefits attached to it after I have passed the Judgment. I appreciate the honour from a good friend. Unfortunately, I’ll be unavailable on that day. I wish you a successful outing.”
Nigerian Comedian, Mr Macaroni expresses dissatisfaction with the Governor of Lagos State over traffic issues.
It can be reported that Lagos has been suffering through a serious traffic phase. The reason behind this was revealed to be the Independence Bridge repairs.
Governor Sanwo Olu then pleaded with Lagosians to bear with the traffic as the repair is necessary. “Let’s think outside the box. If you don’t have business to do in Victoria Island in the next 2 to 3 weeks, conduct your business online and plan ahead.”
However, Mr Macaroni reacts to the Governor’s plea by stating “If the government had any regard whatsoever for the people of Lagos, these measures and more extensive ones would have been taken before yesterday to make this process as painless as possible for the people.”
He lamented on the serious effect that this traffic has taken on people’s day to day life and shared that the government didn’t consider its people.
