Seyi Law pointed out that the level of insecurity witnessed a decade ago was far worse, with kidnappings, banditry, and Boko Haram attacks creating fear across the country.
He compared current conditions to the administration of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, when insurgency and violent crimes were more rampant.
He said stronger measures have reduced such threats, allowing citizens to live with greater confidence.
Seyi explained that bomb blasts and large-scale terrorist incidents have become less frequent, which he believes is evidence of progress in tackling insecurity.
“Nigeria is safer now than 10 years ago. This government has killed more bandits than any government in Nigeria since the time of Jonathan. When last have you heard of bomb blast in Nigeria?”
Turning to the economy, Seyi Law stated that Tinubu inherited a struggling system but has since introduced reforms that have prevented collapse.
He said that the country is in a better financial position today than it was before President Bola Tinubu took office.
“Nigeria economically is better than how Tinubu met it.”
