Ribadu also noted that the militancy in the Niger Delta as well as the insecurity in the South East had been reduced since the beginning of Tinubu’s administration, assuring that it will get better.

“We have witnessed three weeks without any incident of security challenges in the Niger Delta. This is the first time since 1993 but we don’t talk.
“In the South East, when we took over last year we had 46 police stations attacked, today we don’t have one single one.
“In the last two months, not a single person had been killed through the violent attack in the southeast, we don’t talk. The leadership we have in our country does understand things a bit better. Work more talk less,”
