The Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, says President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to total security of Nigeria’s borders is not a rhetoric.
The minister added the President has the firm belief that a porous border was detrimental to national peace and security.
“It means that we can effectively contain internal threats while ensuring that we prevent external threats from finding ways into Nigeria.”“We do not have the longest border in the world, so we have no excuse not to be able to secure our borders. “We are ready to motivate you so that we will have what it takes to demand optimal performance from you,” he said.In her remarks, the Controller General of NIS, Kemi Nandap, said the 30 patrol vehicles would be deployed to enhance the security and integrity of the nation’s borders.
Nandap restated her unwavering commitment to border security and “determination to stay one step ahead of those who seek to undermine the laws and threaten the safety of the people”.
