Former senator, Ben Murray-Bruce, has praised the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, for steps being taken to strengthen security across the country, particularly the approval for the immediate establishment of at least 1,000 forest guards.
Murray-Bruce, who disclosed this on his X platform on Monday, described the initiative as a proactive approach to addressing insecurity and denying criminal elements safe havens in forests and vulnerable communities.
According to him, the planned deployment of forest guards, coupled with increased military presence in forests and high-risk areas, demonstrates a clear commitment to tackling security challenges at their roots.
“I am encouraged by the decisive steps being taken by the National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, to strengthen security across Nigeria,” he stated.
