President Bola Tinubu has declared that Nigeria will not yield to fear, terror, or treachery.
During a morale-boosting visit to frontline troops in Katsina State on Friday, Tinubu emphasised that those who threaten Nigeria—whether internal collaborators or external adversaries—will not succeed in undermining the nation’s resolve.
According to him, “To those who seek to destabilise our nation, be they domestic collaborators or foreign agents—hear this: Nigeria will not bow. Not to fear. Not to terror. Not to treachery.
“You are the brave sons and daughters who stand between our people and the forces of terror. Every inch of ground you hold, every terrorist you neutralise, and every community you secure is a victory for justice, freedom, and the future of our children.
“My dear soldiers, this is a defining moment in our history. The threats of terrorism, banditry, and insurgency have persisted for too long. Nigerians are counting on us and on you to end this menace and reclaim every inch of our territory.
“We are taking bold steps to equip you with advanced equipment, superior intelligence, and robust logistical support not only to defend this nation but to dominate and defeat every adversary.
“Let me hear you loudly: Are you ready? Are you committed to ending this insecurity once and for all? Let your resolve echo through every valley and forest.
“You, the Nigerian military, are the spearhead of this fight. With your valour and discipline, peace shall prevail.”
