General Buratai to Examine Nigeria’s Security Challenges on TVC News Programme



Former Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai, is set to provide insights into Nigeria’s security situation during a special edition of Beyond the Headlines on TVC News scheduled for Monday, June 1, 2026.




According to a promotional announcement released by the television station, the retired lieutenant general will appear as a guest on the current affairs programme hosted by journalist Nifemi Oguntoye.




The discussion, themed “Nigeria’s Security Crossroads: Assessing the Threats, Finding the Way Forward,” is expected to focus on the nation’s evolving security challenges, ongoing threats to national stability, and possible strategies for strengthening peace and security across the country.




Buratai, who served as Chief of Army Staff between 2015 and 2021, is widely regarded as one of Nigeria’s most experienced military leaders, having played a prominent role in the country’s counter-insurgency operations and security reforms.




Analysts say the programme comes at a critical period as stakeholders continue to debate solutions to insecurity, including terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, communal conflicts, and other emerging threats confronting the nation.




The live broadcast is scheduled for 6 p.m. and will be aired on TVC News across multiple platforms, including DStv, GOtv, StarTimes, FreeTV, and the station’s digital channels.




Viewers are expected to gain firsthand perspectives from the former army chief on the state of national security and the measures required to address the challenges facing Africa’s most populous nation.

Please go to Arise Sir.

Let Rufai Oseni actually grill you with the genuine inquiries of the Nigerian People (while Rufai is not perfect, he will fearlessly ask him *word on the streets*question like an ACTUAL JOURNALIST should).

A waste.of useful time someone who was incompetent at attacking terrorism

How can insecurity explain insecurity. It is like Monday Okpebehole of Edo state promising the state security.

Is this a joke? Buratai? That absolute failure as a COAS? If he had done the job excellently well when he was in office, he won't have to go to a TV station to talk about insecurity!
