Tinubu Vows to Support Nigerian Armed Forces in Fight Against Insurgents
President Bola Tinubu has reiterated his strong support for the Nigerian Armed Forces, vowing to stand by them as they confront any threats challenging the country’s security.
Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Armed Forces Headquarters complex in Abuja, Tinubu expressed confidence in the military’s readiness to tackle insurgents and assured that victory is certain.
He praised the Nigerian Armed Forces for their commitment, describing them as “cohesive” and “ready to fight against all forms of insurgency.”
Tinubu emphasized, “I’m proud to say that the Nigerian Army is united, strong, and prepared for any challenge. They will continue to triumph, and we will stand by them.
I’m deeply grateful to all the brave men and women in uniform. To those who have opposed our forces, I send a clear message: our military will win, as they always have.”
The president also commended the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) for his vision of building state-of-the-art barracks, ensuring that the forces are well-equipped and supported.
It has been reported that Niger State and some northern states have come together and agreed to take down 979 forests in order to strengthen national security.
This was revealed by the Niger State Governor, represented by his deputy, Yakubu Garba, at the passing-out parade in Mutum Daya.
He also shared that the government will support in any way they can in order to achieve this and strengthen security in Nigeria.
“The state will make necessary arrangements to support and empower the Forest Guard families for their service to the nation. We will provide them with adequate healthcare insurance scheme.”
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
