COAS vows to enhance Nigeria’s security
By Salif Atojoko
Lt.-Gen. Olufemi Oluyede, Chief of Army Staff (COAS), has pledged to explore various means to improve Nigeria’s security.
Oluyede made this statement while addressing State House correspondents after meeting with President Bola Tinubu on Monday.
He reassured the President of his commitment to achieving better security results, seeking his continued support.
Oluyede also briefed the President on his recent visits to two theatres of operation in the northwest and northeast.
During his visits, Oluyede emphasised the need to end all forms of insecurity in Nigeria, promising to implement changes to achieve better results.
To tackle the ‘Lukarawas,’ a new terrorist group in the North-western part of Nigeria, Oluyede planned to collaborate with neighbouring countries.
“We will work with our neighbours to ensure the Lukarawas are taken out of our borders.
“With Niger Republic on board, we expect to soon eliminate the Lukarawas,” Oluyede said. (NAN) (www.nannews.ng)
