According to reports reaching oyogist.com, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari has said after a close door meeting held with Governors in the country that his administration is investing heavily in weapons and equipment for the military usage in combating crime.

He further reaffirmed his commitment to ensure the safety and security of lives and properties of Nigerians.

Earlier today, oyogist.com learnt that the President held a closed door meeting with Governors in the country.

He later released a statement on his Twitter handle which read;

“In my meeting with State Governors today I explained that the closure of Nigeria’s land borders was partly an attempt to control the smuggling in of weapons & drugs. Now that the message has sunk in with our neighbours,we’re looking into reopening the borders as soon as possible.

“Intelligence-gathering is also very critical to ensuring lasting security in Nigeria. In this regard, everyone has a role to play, in addition to the security agencies: Governors, traditional rulers, community leaders, citizens. We must all work to boost intelligence-gathering.”

“We are investing heavily in weapons and equipment for our military. They have already received armoured cars and other equipment, and aircraft, and more will come in. We will continue to give them all the support they need to fight criminals. We must and will secure Nigeria”. President Buhari concluded.
