Senator Kashim Shettima, the All Progressives Congress (APC) Vice-Presidential candidate, has stated that if elected in 2023, the Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led administration will put an end to insurgency within six months to a year.
According to reports, the former Borno State governor said this during a town hall meeting between Tinubu and the business community in Lagos.
Within six months and one year, my leader (Tinubu) will mobilise the leadership to end this madness, he said.
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the party’s presidential candidate, has stated that if elected in 2023, his administration will enlist more people in the armed forces, security services, and the police as part of measures to combat insecurity.
He stated that his administration would fight insecurity by redefining the country’s counterinsurgency doctrine and practice.
We shall enlist more people in the armed forces, security services and the police. Our forces will be given better tactical communications, mobility as well as improved aerial and ground surveillance capacity.
Through these and other measures, we shall better identify, monitor, track, and defeat these evil groups where they are. They shall have no respite until they surrender or are utterly defeated, he added.
