President Tinubu Speaks
My fellow Nigerians,
You will recall that I cancelled my trip to the G20 Summit in South Africa so I could personally coordinate our national security efforts at home.
Thanks to the dedication and bravery of our security forces over the past few days, all 38 worshippers abducted in Eruku, Kwara State, have been successfully rescued.
I am equally relieved to report that 51 of the missing students of the Catholic school in Niger State have been recovered. Efforts are ongoing to ensure that every remaining child is brought home safely.
I am closely monitoring the security situation across the country and receiving continuous updates from those on the frontline.
Let me be clear: I will not relent. Every Nigerian, in every state, has the right to safety and peace. Under my watch, we will secure this nation and protect our people.
