Despite increasing numbers of terror attack and kidnapping of persons in Nigeria, defence minister General Christopher Musa rtd has claimed that the government of President Bola Tinubu with a score of 70 percent has tackled insecurity.
Recently 46 students and teachers were kidnapped by armed bandits in Oyo State and also in Borno State roughly the same number of students have also been held for over three weeks. According to data 597 students have been kidnapped since Tinubu came into office in 2023. This is not counting the number of citizens that have been killed by their captors and those terrorised by insurgent elements.
However, according to General Musa rtd the government is on top of the situation.
“I will give our government 65-70 per cent, because the nation is totally free of crimes and criminality. The level of terrorism has drastically reduced. Now we have acts of terrorism. Terrorism a social vice as a result of failure of family values,” he said while speaking during a chat on Arise TV on Friday.
While speaking during Muslim holiday, President Bola Tinubu urged Nigerians to pray so that the terror gangs and bandits will have a change of heart and stop killing fellow Nigerians.
