President Bola Tinubu has said there is no need to probe Nigeria’s Security Chiefs on the prevalent insecurity in Nigeria.
Tinubu made this known in a chat with journalists on Monday night, where he discussed his administration and governance of Nigeria.
When asked if he would be probing security chiefs, Tinubu said he has confidence in what they are doing and will not disrespect the institution with the threat of a probe.
He said, “I’m not probing any service chief. You cannot disrespect the institution because of threat of probe, and you cannot fight this war without investment in technology, in weaponry.
“They are living and operating in a very serious condition. We have huge country, a very huge one, and lots of forests, unoccupied spaces. Give them credit for what they are doing, I am proud of what they are doing today. No need to probe.”
Meanwhile, Tinubu has declared that corruption in all its ramifications, is bad for the people.
Tinubu made the declaration while answering a question during his first presidential media chat about the intention of his administration to fight corruption.
The Nigerian leader said increasing the minimum wage of workers in the country to ₦70,000 is part of the measures adopted to fight corruption in the country.
He stressed the need to identify the root causes of corruption and deal with such causes.
