By Trek Africa Newspaper
President Bola Tinubu has stated that there is no need to investigate Nigeria’s Security Chiefs over the ongoing insecurity in the country.
Speaking to journalists on Monday night during a media chat about his administration, Tinubu expressed confidence in the performance of the security chiefs and emphasized that he would not undermine the institution by threatening probes.
“I’m not probing any service chief,” Tinubu affirmed. “You cannot disrespect the institution with the threat of a probe, and you can’t fight this war without investing in technology and weaponry. They are operating under challenging conditions in a vast country with many forests and unoccupied spaces. I give them credit for their efforts, and I am proud of what they are doing. There’s no need for a probe.”
In addition, Tinubu reiterated his stance on corruption, declaring that it is detrimental to the people.
During the same media session, he explained that increasing the minimum wage to ₦70,000 was part of his administration’s strategy to combat corruption. He emphasized the importance of addressing the root causes of corruption to effectively tackle it.
