Interior Minister: “Nobody’s Sleeping Under Tinubu; We’re Working to End Insecurity”

November 13, 2024

The Nigerian government is actively addressing the nation’s pressing security issues, according to Interior Minister Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, who spoke on Tuesday on Channels Television’s Politics Today. In the interview, Tunji-Ojo emphasized that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is committed to overcoming the country’s security challenges, with top officials working tirelessly to protect Nigerian citizens.

“Nobody is resting,” Tunji-Ojo stated, noting that senior security officials, including National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu, Defence Minister Mohammed Badaru, and Chief of Defence Staff General Christopher Musa, are dedicating long hours to tackling security concerns. “Nobody is sleeping, we are working. This security issue is a major issue of national concern, and I will not sit here and refuse to take responsibility for the security of Nigerians on behalf of the President,” he said.

The Interior Minister highlighted recent progress, noting that militant groups like Boko Haram and the Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) have been weakened by military operations. He acknowledged, however, that while the security situation has improved since Tinubu took office, there is still work to be done to reach the administration’s goals for national safety.

Tunji-Ojo urged the public to consider the administration’s actions rather than just assurances, emphasizing the President’s sensitivity to security issues. “The President is aware of the security challenges. Talk is cheap; the real deal is the action,” he said.

Reflecting on the administration’s efforts since May 29, 2023, the minister expressed confidence in the progress achieved thus far, while acknowledging that more work is required to reach the government’s security goals.
