President Bola Tinubu has said his administration’s efforts to tackle insecurity are beginning to produce results, urging Nigerians to remain united and reject actions capable of undermining national stability.
In his Easter message, personally signed on Friday, the President noted that sustained investments, alongside foreign partnerships, are gradually strengthening the fight against terrorism and banditry.
“This season reminds us of the significance of Easter and the message it embodies of sacrifice, resilience, and the triumph of light over darkness,” Tinubu said. “For us in Nigeria, the essence resonates with our current realities as we navigate a period marked by economic strain and security challenges, even as determined efforts are underway to address them.”
He acknowledged that security challenges persist despite the sacrifices of the Armed Forces but assured citizens of continued commitment. “However, my administration continues to make resources available and forge foreign partnerships to enable us to deal decisive blows to the agents of terror and banditry,” he stated.
The President referenced his recent visit to Plateau State, where he commiserated with victims of violence and reassured affected communities of improved security measures.
“We have also sought and are receiving assistance from outside our shores. I am reassured that citizens appreciate our efforts… No nation can thrive where fear prevails, and no progress can be sustained without peace,” he added.
Tinubu further called on Nigerians to support lawful efforts, promote unity and uphold democratic values as the country approaches another electoral cycle. “The Electoral Act must guide the conduct of political parties and actors. Let our choices be guided by a shared commitment to peace, continuity, stability and long-term good of our country,” he said.
While acknowledging the hardship faced by many citizens, the President maintained that ongoing reforms would yield long-term benefits. “True transformation requires sacrifice, and history affirms that enduring progress is often forged in moments such as these,” he said, expressing optimism that “a new dawn is on the horizon.”
