Insecurity: We Are Handling Security Well, Osinbajo Tells Pastors by valentineuwakwe(m): 12:19am On Feb 04, 2020
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says there is an ongoing effort to improve the security situation in the country including plans to recruit more troops and officers to beef up the personnel of security agencies.

Osinbajo’s spokesman, Laolu Akande, in a statement on Monday in Abuja, said the vice president received at the Presidential Villa, clergymen from the Northern part of Nigeria under the aegis of the Arewa Pastors Forum for Peace.

The VP said the Federal Government was committed to containing the threats and security concerns in the country.

He assured the pastors that the Federal Government was doing everything that needed to be done.

“We are handling security well, and as you know, including military deployment in diverse fields, like the Boko Haram in the North-East.

“In fact, we have to now recruit more into the army, and much faster than we ever did because we need men on the ground; resources also – to buy more arms, to buy more platforms.

“At the last meeting of the National Security Council that was held on Thursday, we had discussions on how to beef up the military’s platforms.

“How do we beef up the numbers? How do we recruit more men and women into the army? How do we collaborate more with local vigilante, the Civilian Joint Task Force and all that.

“So, there is a lot going on in terms of trying to beef up security; the security situation is one that is very challenging.

“We are also looking at aspects of surveillance – how we can do more aerial surveillance using drones and electronic devices to improve surveillance,” he said.

Osinbajo assured the clergymen that the Federal Government was also committed to finding lasting solutions to the perennial crisis in communities in the North and other parts of the country, including the ones bothering on religious prejudices.

He urged the group as ‘Men of God,” to also come up with ideas and their thoughts on how to find lasting peace.

Earlier in his remark, President of the Forum, Bishop Mbayo Japhet, said the group’s visit to the Presidential Villa was to support the regime and the vice president.

The Bishop described Osinbajo as an apostle of peace.

Look, the greater part of all he said was they are working on how to beef up security in the Country. At least, there was a National Security meeting and that was what they all discussed, so let's see how the improvements are made.

So, if he comes back alive it means they are handling security well? That's wrong to say as that doesn't show anything. He said they are working on recruiting more hands to help the men on ground.

It is painful to see the VP behaving the way he does.

I don't think El Rufai or any other Muslim would've remained if they were VP to a Christian president that is as clueless as Buhari.

My opinion though.

Vice President Osinbajo has just given a snippet into some of the deliberations that went on in the last security meeting and they look like good plans.
Hopefully the determination of our security agents as well as the prayers of the Christian leaders as well as the prayer walk of the RCCG will bring about a turn around and improve the security situation in the country

Your postulation holds not a shed of veracity. Atiku was actually victimised by obasanjo, yet he didn't resign.

Sides complaining and criticism, I'd have expected all those commenting ignorantly to read the the suggestions made by prof Osinbajo and constructively disect the pros and cons of each.
Rather they'd all resort to cheap insults.

As long as the troops who are to be recruited are not BH members who are granted the so called amnesty, it's ok.

When they called Jonathan clueless, why did you not think Sambo should resign? Or your brain could not produce an opinion back then?

Hmmmmmmm, Pastor Prof VP, there are places soldiers are deployed where they have no security benefits to the society than to constitute nuisance, extorting bikemen up to trucks (₦100-₦1000) and they can't even prevent robbery within the community, eg Ijagemo, Ijẹdodo in Lagos state, why not redeploy such to make them effective.
Police go pack themselves inside private vehicle dey raid community, so before we talk about staff shortage, let's deal with idleness of the few officers available.

We commend the federal government for their effort so far but i think they can still do better by increasing the numbers of troops across the country. God bless Nigeria

Hypocrisy everywhere, you need to be updated and know what the government is doing about the insecurity in the country before coming to Nairaland to vomit your unnecessary hatred towards the innocent man, and mind you, the problem started during the PDP tenure not theirs and all we can just do is to encourage them and enjoy a better country together.
