President Bola Tinubu, today in Abuja, directs Service Chiefs and heads of security and intelligence agencies to “crush” perpetrators of oil theft, saying that his administration will not tolerate the menace.
Tinubu also said on his watch, insecurity would not bring Nigeria to her knees while other countries record achievements in key sectors of their economies.
The President gave the directive in his maiden official meeting with Service Chiefs and intelligence heads led by the Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Thursday.
The National Security Adviser, Maj. Gen. Babagana Monguno (retd.), who addressed journalists after the meeting revealed that the President has directed heads of security agencies to provide a purpose-made blueprint to tackle insecurity and maintain sanity nationwide.
In the two-hour meeting, the NSA said the security helmsmen briefed Tinubu on the activities of their various security formations and for him to inform them about his expectations.
Speaking further, he said the President has mandated the security agencies to provide a blueprint for the country as “he doesn’t have the luxury of time.”
