EKO HOT BLOG reports that the minister of information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, on Monday claimed that in spite of the security challenges, the military and other security personnel were doing their best and have recorded successes in their fight against terrorism.
Recall that Obasanjo on Saturday said the various security challenges in the country have overwhelmed the Buhari government, adding that citizens are not safe to travel by road, airport and train.
He stated that Nigerians are no longer safe anywhere in the country following the invasion of the Kaduna International Airport and the terror attack on a Kaduna-Abuja bound train.
In a reaction, Mohammed stated that the former Nigerian leader was wrong to have said the federal government was overwhelmed by rising insecurity in the nation.
“ We must give kudos to our military; you know that we are not fighting a conventional war but terrorism, hence the need for everyone to support the security agencies so as to win over the menace.
“The Federal Government has also given the military the enabling environment to continue in the fight against terrorism and banditry,’’ he said.
