The Federal Government has stated it needs the support of allies to tackle the wave of insecurity ravaging Nigeria.
Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), George Akume, made the statement when a powerful delegation of the Charismatic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN), led by its President, Archbishop Leonard Kawas, paid him a courtesy visit in Abuja.
Akume stressed that the Bola Tinubu-led administration was doing everything within its power to ensure the security of lives and property, and also sought collaborative support from international allies to fight the menace.
“But the government is seriously committed to eradicating insecurity… We need support from our allies to be able to fight terrorists in the land”, he said, in a statement by the Director, Information and Public Relations, Segun Imohiosen, on Friday.
He acknowledged the vote of confidence passed on the administration of President Tinubu, which he said was a testament to the efforts made by the administration toward tackling insecurity and other challenges facing the country.
According to him, the Tinubu administration has been partnering with traditional leaders, businessmen, the private sector, political leaders, and religious leaders toward building a strong and virile Nigeria for all.
He asked the religious bodies to pray for the peace and prosperity of the country.
