Presidency claims significant security improvements under Tinubu

Presidential spokesman Daniel Bwala asserts President Bola Tinubu's administration has recorded "robust success" in fighting insecurity, responding to criticism about ongoing kidnappings and killings. Speaking on Arise Television Tuesday, Bwala highlighted joint Nigerian-US military operations that killed Boko Haram commanders and criminal elements. He claimed before Tinubu's administration, travel from Abuja to Kaduna required security agents due to "every week's affair" of insecurity, while in 2026 people are reportedly traveling from Abuja to Maiduguri and Adamawa. The government is defending its security record amid public concerns about safety across Nigeria.
