We’ve made progress in fight against kidnapping, others – Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday, said his regime had made progress in stemming the tide of communal violence, farmer-herdsmen clashes, cattle rustling, and kidnapping across the country.
He also vowed that his regime would deal with those who were profiting from insecurity nationwide.
Buhari spoke on Thursday at the passing out parade of the Regular Course 4/2016 Cadets of the Nigeria Police Academy, Wudil, Kano.
He said his government was working within available resources to place the Nigerian Police Force “amongst the most efficient security organisations in the world.”
This was as he urged policemen to rise to the occasion of defending the country against elements who are determined to keep citizens in perpetual fear.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday titled ‘We’ve made impact on security, economy, corruption, says President Buhari, urges police to deploy more technology.’
Buhari was quoted as saying that the Boko Haram insurgency, the Indigenous People of Biafra, Eastern Security Network, and banditry in some parts of the nation had been significantly degraded and relative normalcy had returned to most towns and villages
