Aregbesola said:

“Nigerians have the assurance of all of us that their security is guaranteed. So, we’re here to assure you that you’re safe; that is why we’re here on the instructions of the president that you’re safe and that each day going to December, our safety and security will be better.”

The minister noted that the major challenges being faced by the government are those perpetrating criminal activities in some localities in the country.

He, however, noted that the ultimate goal is to wipe them out and restore normalcy in those communities between the month of September.

The minister said:

“It is sounding tall, but take it home, we’re determined to ensure that every inch of the Nigerian soil is safe. The determination is there and the order has been given.”

He further reiterated that there’s no rest on the part of the government, noting that tireless efforts and energy are being put in place to finally annihilate those disturbing the peace and stability of the country.
