The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on Sunday, expressed worry over insecurity in Nigeria in his Democracy Day speech.

The president also appealed to Nigerians to be prayerful over insecurity in his broadcast to the nation on Sunday in Abuja.

According to him, the government is working hard to contain and address security challenges in the country.

He said, “To achieve this, however, we must all contribute. It is not the job of the government alone. I ask all citizens to support and cooperate with our security agencies by reporting any suspicious characters and activities to law enforcement agencies. We can only have a safe country if we are able to prevent crime not after the crime has been committed.

“On this special day, I want us all to put all victims of terrorist activities in our thoughts and prayers. I am living daily with the grief and worry for all those victims and prisoners of terrorism and kidnapping. I and the security agencies are doing all we can to free those unfortunate countrymen and countrywomen safely.

“For those who have lost their lives, we will continue to seek justice for their families against the perpetrators. For those currently in captivity, we will not stop until they are freed, and their kidnappers are brought to justice. If we all unite, we will be victorious against these agents of terror and destruction.”

According to him, the government is working hard to contain and address security challenges in the country.
