The Gravitas Group for Good Governance has commended President Ahmed Bola Tinubu for his radical and bold initiative to end banditry, kidnapping and all acts of domestic terrorism in the country.
Penpushing reports that Convener of the Gravitas Group High Chief Tola Adeniyi and General Secretary, Prof Anthony Kila gave the commendation in a statement on Saturday,noting that a statement from a government spokesman Mr Sunday Dare announcing this development has received tremendous applause from across the country.
“For several years, especially in the last one and half decades, Nigerian forests had provided hiding fortresses for all shades and categories of criminal elements who had been terrorising Nigerian citizens. Paradoxically, most of these terrorists were imported into the country by the so-called leaders who swore to defend the populace’ the statement added.
Penpushing further reports that the Gravitas Group emphasised that it believes that Nigerians will now begin to trust and believe their leaders for living up to their basic responsibilities, stating that this initiative of armed forest guards is perhaps the most important policy the Tinubu administration has taken since its inception especially on matters very close to the peoples heart.
‘Nigerians in all regions of the country from the North, South, East and West have always believed that insecurity is the greatest challenge confronting the country. It is insecurity which drove our farmers out of their farms and investors and foreign companies out of the country’, the statement stated.
Penpushing also reports that the body pointed out that insecurity singularly strangled the country’s food security and gave Nigeria its triple digit inflation in foodstuffs prices, adding that bandits and barefaced terrorists have sent many people early to their graves, many to Internally Displaced Camps while the tribes of widows and orphans have grown into frightening proportions.
The statement said, now that the forests are going to be actively policed and terrorists flushed out of their havens, Nigerians may begin to enjoy a new lease of life, adding that Gravitas Group hopes that President Tinubu will treat Nigerians to more people -oriented public policies and live up to his reputation as a bold, thoughtful and strategic political tactician, with optimism that there will no longer be hiding places for the wicked and heartless.
