President Bola Tinubu recently declared that people who commit crimes like kidnapping should be treated as terrorists.
Tinubu made the declaration during a Ramadan dinner with members of the Federal judiciary, including the Chief Justice of Nigeria and other retired judicial officers.
The President stressed the government’s commitment to fighting banditry and made known his disapproval of kidnapping children, calling it a cowardly act.
He believed that those who engage in such activities are afraid to confront the might of the Nigerian Armed Forces (NAF).

Tinubu said:
“We must treat kidnappers as terrorists.
“They are cowardly. They have been degraded. They look for soft targets.
“They go to schools and kidnap children and cause disaffection. We must treat them equally as terrorists in order to get rid of them, and I promise you we will get rid of them.“
