The National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu, on Thursday said President Bola Tinubu deliberately appointed northerners into key offices.

Ribadu, who spoke in Sokoto, said the President picked northerners to take charge of strategic places because he wanted problems in the region squarely addressed.

Delivering lecture on “Navigating The Maze: Addressing Multi-Dimensional Insecurity Challenges In Northern Nigeria” as part of the activities marking the 38,39,40 and 41st combined convocation of Usmanu Danfordiyo University, Sokoto, he lamented that the North was facing myriad of challenges, ranging from insecurity and out-of-school children, among others.

He added that, the poverty index in the region was alarming.

“At the time he (Tinubu) was forming this government, he said the North was very dear to his heart that he would do everything to address its challenges.

“This is why he appointed northerners into key offices. He handed over security and Defence to the North. He gave us both ministers for Agriculture and Education. He also gave us Minister of Health and Foreign Affairs in his quest to turn around the fortune of the region.

“He gave us chance. Now the rest is on us, we northerners. Lets put our differences aside and work for the betterment of our region and Nigeria,” he said.

On the insecurity, he said the present government had achieved a lot, citing cases of some bandit commanders who were recently killed by security operatives and tens of thousands of kidnapped victims rescued without paying a dime.

“As I am talking to you, there is no known case of student abduction of students that is unresolved anywhere in the country. And where are bandits’ leaders like Ali Kawaje, Boderi, Damina and Dangote? They have all been eliminated.”

“In the past we have had cases of organised terrorism attacks by insurgents groups like what their attacks on our train, military formations, or churches. Since we got in there has not been anything like that.

“And go to Niger Delta, it is peaceful today. In the East people were been stopped and killed, there were over 40 police stations shut down but all of them are now functional. All these changes happened because we work.

“We will continue to work. We are not jokers. We are serious and in Sha Allah, Nigeria will see the difference,” he said

According to Ribadu, Tinubu’s government is adopting counterinsurgency strategies aimed at winning the hearts and minds of the local population, isolating insurgents from their support base and preventing the recruitment of new members.

“These strategies involve engaging with communities, providing humanitarian assistance and promoting reconciliation and deradicalization programme.”

“This sort of approach is a core focus of the Renewed Hope Agenda. Its initiatives include infrastructural development, job creation, education and healthcare provision as well as efforts to tackle poverty and inequality,” he said.

Wise man

Northern politicians and traditional rulers are used to some self-serving feudalistic privileges that haven't translated to any kind of development or economic growth for the region. Currently, Tinubu is foot dragging on some of these privileges and the selfish bunch are restless.

For example, the forex black market that is being reined in to stabilize Naira is affecting many this category of northerners. At the moment, the are holding up solid minerals exploitation up north but I pray Tinubu musters political will for the sake Nigeria.

Unfortunately, giving them these privileges means that some good policies would have to be dumped or watered down.

Story... Ha na agba ndi aboki ogwu 😎..

Nice! It's true that our Northern brothers and sisters are very valuable to Nigeria and the current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR. We need the North as much as we need one another.
Congratulations to the graduands. May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

Ribadu has left his national security adviser duty and now the chief propagandist of Tinubu.

Ribadu don turn to chief propaganda., they are now using him to mock and deceive northerners.

Bunch of black baboons

I used to have some regards for this dude when he chaired the EFCC and I thought his people did too. Today, I have realized that his people have no regards for him that's why he couldn't win any elective positions and has become Tinubu's loquacious minion because Tinubu kept him relevant.

NEF and AYF dey para because they have been schemed out of things. The real northerners are solidly behind his excellency Tinubu

Lol .... commander in chief of propaganda!!!

That one will not stop your fellow blodas from ganging up against him if need be. No matter what happens North can not be developed. It will continue to remain low zin education and human index cos that's how it's made to be from time immemorial.

Even If President likes he should give all the whole ministerial parasratals and commissioners and advisers and gbo gbo ti gbo to the north, they will still remain the same!!!!

The right now will be like ... Story for Ogun

Na where person dey work, him go chop. You have to delight your allies and strategic partners. It's normal in politics.

Meanwhile, You no fit vote for a man that takes advise from a mad man and expect to be appointed by another man that takes advise from technocrats.

Everything isn't about the north.





Southern naija should wake up fa

Lol

So you are now calling them small babies?

Okay I!

It is finished

This desperado again! Shebi he tell us say Tinubu na thief?
Ribadu is the most desperate power hungry fellow I know. More than two decades after leaving EFCC,
this man couldn’t find any thing to do but kept seeking for public office.
Now rehabilitated by Tinubu, all he does is twerk and dance awilo logumba for him.

same lyrics everyday, you don't have ryhmes

where can the REAL NORTHERS be found?, in political and other appointment offices abi

make God no allow bad thing to happen to you helinues

Is this the only thing you can say? I don't blame you, it's your foolish and sheepish supporters that I should blame, I will outrightly stop supporting any politician that plays religious or tribal card to gain sympathy, they have nothing to offer. So Tinubu didn't use merit in forming his cabinet and we are expecting better results? As you submit, That he gave key positions to Northerners what is the pragmatic benefit to the region and the entire country. I advise Tinubu to restructure the cabinet so as to bring compitent hands in his government for betterment of the Nigerian people

North na dead weight to the south

Greedy north
