Nigeria Is Becoming Safer Every Day — Minister Of Information, Lai Mohammed Says

 

Nigeria is becoming a safer place with each passing day, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said.

The minister, who spoke in Abuja, on Monday, March 28, said this is as a result of the string of successes being recorded in the fight against Boko Haram, ISWAP, bandits and other criminal elements.

According to him, the security forces had taken the battle to the bandits and put them on the run and their ranks are being decimated by the day.

“I am proud of our security forces, our men and women in uniform. Despite a myriad of security challenges, they are living up to the billing.

As the terrorists and their camps are being decimated, thousands of terrorists and their families are surrendering in droves. The effectiveness of the security forces has been enhanced by the leadership provided by President Muhammadu Buhari and the unwavering commitment of the armed forces and its leadership,” he said.

However, few hours after the minister made this remarks, terrorists bombes Abuja-Kaduna train conveying over 900 passengers leaving many died and some injuried.
