Renowned cleric and founder of the Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC), Matthew Ashimolowo, has urged Nigerians to support President Bola Tinubu’s administration in its efforts to tackle insecurity across the country.
Ashimolowo made the appeal on Thursday during an appearance on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily.
He described the Tinubu administration as one committed to making meaningful progress in restoring peace and security.
The Cleric said, “Nigeria needs a turn around. Let’s stand behind our president now that he has called for more policing, more soldiers”.
“Let’s raise the security level, make our people proud to be Nigerians, let’s tap into the brain of our nation and also recognize global Africa,” the KICC founder said.
“Every African nation wants to be Nigerians. They are so proud of us, Nigerians. We are the toughest, strongest, boldest and fearless. This is the nation we are and I believe we have a leadership that wants to make things work, let’s support and be behind him [Tinubu].”
Nigeria continues to grapple with widespread insecurity, including banditry, terrorism, and kidnapping for ransom.
On Wednesday, President Tinubu declared a state of emergency on insecurity, and the recruitment of more security personnel to help in addressing the challenge.
