President Bola Tinubu has told newly appointed service chiefs that there is work to be done and wants them to synergise for effective outcomes.
Tinubu made the remark on Monday when he met the new National Security Adviser (NSA) Nuhu Ribadu and the new service chiefs for the first time, since their appointment on June 19, 2023.
Speaking after the meeting, Ribadu said the Service Chiefs while pledging loyalty to the President had started overseeking improvements in the security of the country.
He said,“Where we are today, and you can see already, things are improving in our country. If you see, the record of crimes and activities of criminals are going down, it will continue to go down. We’ll secure this place,” he said.
“Nigerians have seen the quality of the people that are given the opportunity, they are probably some of the best we have and they are not going to fail you, they’ll certainly deliver.”
The Chief of Defence Staff, Maj. Gen. C.G Musa; the Chief of Army Staff, Maj. Gen T. A Lagbaja; the Chief of Naval Staff, Rear Admiral E. A Ogalla; and the Chief of Air Staff, AVM H.B Abubakar, were at the meeting.
The Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun was also present at the security meeting.
