Sokoto – Prof. Gajam Von of the Department of Education, Usman Danfodio University, Sokoto, has called on Nigerians to support the efforts of President Muhammadu Buhari to end insurgency in the country.
He made call on Monday in Sokoto in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
He said that Buhari had fine tuned the nation’s security apparatus with the appointment of competent hands to manage the affairs of the armed forces for optimal performance.
He said that the task ahead for Nigerians was to come out with intelligence reports on suspected miscreants and make them available to the security agencies for prompt action.
Von urged Nigerians to develop the habit of offering intelligence information on security threat in their localities to the security agencies.
He expressed satisfaction with the efforts made so far by the new service chiefs in confronting the insurgents in some part of the country.
The don urged the federal government to intensify efforts to end the `senseless killings’ of innocent Nigerians for peace, progress and political growth of the country.
“Taking decisive action against insurgency, kidnapping, armed robbery and other criminal activities will enable Nigerians move on with their legitimate businesses,’’ he said.
Von advised the federal government to provide the security agencies with state-of-the-art equipment to enable them confront the insurgents. (NAN)
