Despite recent killings of over 200 persons in Plateau State, President Bola Tinubu has said that Nigeria’s security challenge has improved since he assumed office.

He stated this in his New Year broadcast on Monday, January 1, 2024.

Politics Nigeria reports that since President Tinubu assumed office on 29 May 2023, about seven months ago, the country has witnessed countless number of abductions and killings.

The president insisted that his administration has been working silently to free captives from abductors.

He said though it may not have solved all the security problems confronting the country, it is working hard to ensure that Nigerians have peace of mind in their homes.

“Since our administration took over the mantle of office, security has improved. Silently, we have worked to free captives from abductors,” Tinubu said.

“While we can’t beat our chest yet that we had solved all the security problems, we are working hard to ensure that we all have peace of mind in our homes, places of work and on the roads,” he added.

Recall that a week ago, armed men slaughtered over 100 people in Bokkos and Barkin-Ladi Local Government Areas of Plateau State.
