TINUBU VOWS TO ESTABLISH STATE POLICE TO CURB INSECURITY, ASSURES NIGERIANS PROMISES WILL BE FULFILLED
President Bola Tinubu declared last night his administration's commitment to establishing state police as a measure to combat insecurity across Nigeria. He made this pledge while hosting state governors for an interfaith breaking of the fast at the Presidential Villa in Abuja. The President also reaffirmed his promise to fulfill the commitments he made to Nigerians before taking office in 2023. The event, held during the sacred seasons of Ramadan and Lent, saw President Tinubu emphasizing unity and responsibility among the governors. He urged them to intensify their efforts in ensuring that grassroots communities, where hope sometimes falters, are not neglected. "Tonight, I hosted our state governors to an interfaith breaking of the fast as Muslims observe Ramadan and Christians’ journey through Lent," President Tinubu stated. "In this sacred season for two of the major faiths in our dear country, we are reminded that beyond politics and policy, we are first a people of conscience." He further commended the governors for their work and outreach during the holy month, but challenged them to "do more. To reach the young man who feels forgotten. To lift the woman who carries her family on tired shoulders. To touch the communities at the grassroots where hope sometimes flickers, development must not recognise religion, compassion must not recognise tribe and opportunity must not recognise status." President Tinubu expressed his unwavering determination, saying, "I am determined to rescue this country. And as long as we work together in delivering hope to our citizens, the best is yet to come for Nigeria." Regarding his promises, the President assured, "What I promised Nigerians will not be postponed. Security is the foundation of prosperity. Without it, farms cannot flourish, businesses cannot grow, and families cannot sleep in peace." He reiterated the critical step towards enhanced security: "We will establish state police to curb insecurity. This is not about politics; it is about practicality. It is about empowering states with the tools to protect their people while strengthening our national framework." Concluding his remarks, President Tinubu urged bold action and unity. "We must be bold enough to reform what is not working. We must be united enough to protect what we hold dear. Nigeria will be safer. Nigeria will be stronger. And together, we must commit to making it so."
