Nigeria’s Presidency has claimed that President Bola Tinubu is “ahead of the orchestrated game unfolding in America”.
This was contained in a social media post by Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.
According to him, Tinubu already laid down the law while swearing in the new Service Chiefs, before President Donald Trump designated Nigeria as a ‘Country of Particular Interest’
Onanuga wrote on X: “President Bola Tinubu was well ahead of the orchestrated game unfolding in America as he told the new service chiefs on Thursday what Nigerians expect of them. No more excuses, he said. Nigerians want results. Here is the excerpt of his speech:
“Security threats are constantly evolving, constantly mutating. Of grave concern to our administration is the recent emergence of new armed groups in the North-Central, North-West, and parts of the South. We must not allow these new threats to fester. We must be decisive and proactive. Let us smash the new snakes right in the head.
I charge you, as the heads of our nation’s armed forces, to carry out your duties with patriotic zeal. Nigerians expect results, not excuses.
I charge you also to be innovative, pre-emptive, and courageous. Let’s stay ahead of those who seek to threaten our peace. Let us deploy technology where necessary. We cannot allow the crisis that began in 2009 to persist any longer.
I wish you success as you take up the challenge. I promise to provide all the support you need to get the job done”.
