The president was represented at the event by the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed.

He said just as his regime has been able to put the seemingly-intractable farmers-herders crisis under control, it would also successfully tackle the terrorists and bandits.

“As our security agencies put them on the run, they will no longer be able to carry out their deadly attacks as well as kidnappings.

“Peace and security will return to our country, and our unity will be strengthened.

”We must take the fight to the terrorists and demonstrate that there is no hiding place for them within the borders of our country.

The President, who commended gallant men and women in uniform, appealed to all compatriots to continue to support them in their onerous task of keeping the country safe.

“We must also realize that security is the business of everyone, hence the tagline ‘if you see something, say something.’
