Senator representing Borno South, Ali Ndume, has revealed that President Bola Tinubu assured him he would do everything within his power to restore security across the country following a private meeting at the Presidential Villa.

Ndume disclosed this on Friday during an interview on Channels Television, saying security was the major issue discussed during the nearly one-hour meeting with the president.

According to the senator, he spoke candidly about the worsening security situation in parts of the country, particularly in Borno State, and conveyed the concerns of Nigerians living in communities ravaged by insurgent attacks.

“He told me, ‘Ali, I will do everything to secure Nigerians.’ I believe him, and I pray that the promise will be fulfilled,” Ndume said.
