APC chieftain hails Tinubu as troops take war to bandits

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Uche Nwosu, on Wednesday commended President Bola Tinubu and the Minister of Defence, Gen. Christopher Musa (retd.), for what he described as renewed and more effective military operations against banditry, insurgency and kidnapping across the country.

Nwosu made the remarks at a press conference in Abuja, where he attributed recent gains recorded by the armed forces to the administration’s decision to place professionals with deep sectoral experience in key security positions.

According to him, the appointment of a retired senior military officer as defence minister has injected renewed confidence into Nigeria’s security architecture and altered the approach to tackling insecurity.

He said, unlike in the past, when defence ministers largely relied on briefings from subordinates, the current minister brings first-hand operational knowledge to the job, having risen through the ranks.

“The difference is very clear. With General Musa at the helm, it is no longer business as usual. He understands the terrain and the strategy. That is why we are seeing results,” Nwosu said.

The APC chieftain noted that recent military offensives across several flashpoints have disrupted the activities of bandits, forcing many to abandon their hideouts.

“They are now being met in their camps and hit hard, instead of allowing them to strike and escape. This approach has restored public confidence,” he added.

He observed that the improved security situation has encouraged Nigerians to resume road travel, particularly during the festive season, with fewer reported cases of kidnapping along major highways.

Nwosu also rejected calls in some quarters for dialogue or negotiation with bandits, insisting that criminal elements responsible for mass killings and abductions do not deserve such concessions.

“You don’t negotiate with people who invade communities, kill over 100 people and abduct children. They don’t negotiate when they are killing,” he stressed.

While urging the Federal Government to sustain the current military momentum, especially in states such as Sokoto, Kebbi, Katsina, Borno, Plateau and other flashpoints, the APC chieftain called on political leaders to adopt long-term thinking on national security and economic recovery.

“If banditry is crushed and agriculture is fully supported, Nigeria can become the food basket of Africa,” he said.
