President Bola Tinubu has expressed satisfaction with the renewed fierce operations of the armed forces against bandits and other criminal elements, especially in the Northwest.
According to a statement today, September 14, by the presidential spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu is happy with what he called “strings of successful operations” against security threats in the north-west by troops of the Nigerian military.”
The President, who hinged the resounding success so far to his command to the service chiefs to relocate to the trouble zone until normalcy is restored, said that the success of the operations has given further assurance that the security operatives are up to the task of ensuring the peace and security of the nation.
President Tinubu commended the military high command, the intelligence agencies, and the troops for their valiant efforts, synergy, and dedication, which have resulted in the recent laudable outcomes.
The President also commended the entire security apparatus for the improved security in the nation and enjoins them to sustain their efforts until immediate and latent threats are permanently removed.
He reassured the security agencies of his continued support in achieving the priority objective of keeping the nation safe and secure
It would be recalled that troops of the Operation Hadarin Daji, on September 12, killed a wanted bandit leader, Halilu Sububu, who had been unleashing terror on citizens in Zamfara, Sokoto and other parts of north-western Nigeria. The troops also killed another terrorist, Sani Wala Burki in a Joint Operation in Katsina, and busted a terrorist enclave in Kaduna where 13 kidnapped students were freed.
