Abuja (Precise Post) – The insecurity in the country may soon be a thing of the past as President Muhammadu Buhari thursday moved to restore public confidence in his administration’s capability to protect lives and property, as he pointedly told security chiefs to up their game.
The president, at a meeting yesterday with the security chiefs, warned that he would no longer condone further deteriorating security condition in the country.
Recall that there was a massive protest, organised by the Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG), rocked Katsina, the state capital on Tuesday, prompting the president to dispatch security chiefs, led by the National Security Adviser, Major General Babagana Mungono (rtd), to the state on Wednesday, to find solutions to the security crisis.
At a security council meeting attended by all heads of the armed forces and other security agencies as well as the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Adamu, in the State House, Buhari who told the service chiefs that they might seem to be doing their best, did not mince words to say “their best was not enough.”
He demanded an immediate reversal of the current security crisis ravaging the country.
The meeting held against the backdrop of the growing disenchantment with the worsening insecurity in the country, especially in the North.
The disenchantment reached a head in the last few weeks when people from the president’s home state of Katsina poured onto the streets to protest the rising wave of banditry and kidnappings in the state.
The delegation was also in Sokoto, which is in the throes of banditry.
