According to reports, Buhari, who was represented by the Minister of Defence, Maj. Gen. Bashir Magashi, made this known on Friday at the graduation of Course 29 participants of the National Defence College in Abuja.
According to him, “Although the nation is still grappling with the challenges of terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, farmer-herder crisis, and militancy, the responses by my government and security agencies in tackling these threats have been strong, determined and robust in order to enhance the security of lives and property of Nigerians.”
He made it known that,“We consolidated the peace in the Niger Delta and recovered vast territories overtaken by terrorists in the North-East. We are making continuous efforts at consolidating the progress made in improving the enabling security environment for peace and development.”
