I’ve Confidence In Nigeria’s Security Architecture – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu says he has confidence in the security architecture of Nigeria.

The President said this during his maiden media chat on Monday.

“It is very unfortunate that we have had wanton killings in the past. I remember when I jumped into the campaign. I had to stop the campaign to pay condolence visits in Katsina, Kaduna, and others.

“Today, you can still travel by road. Before now, it was impossible.

“It takes one incident to mess up an organised environment. You cannot say the military was not prepared when the brigade battalion was attacked.

“You can’t laugh at your nation because of that; the enemies within and without are watching what you are doing,” said Tinubu.

The president stressed that he had no regrets removing fuel subsidy at his inauguration on May 29, 2023. He said failure to do so would have amounted to the country spending the lives of its future generations.

Tinubu stated, “We were spending our future, We were spending our generations when we claimed we were giving subsidy to Nigerians on petrol. We were not investing.

“We were just deceiving ourselves. That reform (fuel subsidy removal), is necessary. I could see the small glass crashing back. This is the way out. The fact that we give out fuel, allow all the attacks. We cannot spend our future generations’ investment up front.”
