Garba Shehu, senior special assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on media and publicity, says the administration totally disagrees with the assumptions that there is a security collapse in the country.
Speaking on Channels Television on Sunday, the presidential aide said the government is on top of the security situation across the country.
He added that the government had been able to restore normalcy in the north central and Niger Delta regions.
“We are in total disagreement with the assumptions of collapse of security in the country,” he said.
Shehu said though the present state of insecurity in the country predated the Buhari administration, the federal government is dealing decisively with it.
However, he noted that the president does not know it all and is open to fresh ideas to tackle all challenges the country is facing.
On different occasions, stakeholders in the country have called on the president to address the growing cases of insecurity, ranging from herder-farmer crisis, kidnappings and banditry.
On July 16, Shehu had called on leaders to be mindful of the comments the make on the incessant attacks and kidnappings across the country, saying insecurity is an issue all Nigerians ought to join hands to fight.
