“Security has also seen improvements. Numerous human rights and civil society organizations have acknowledged the enhanced state of security across the country. Terrorists, insurgents, and other criminal elements have faced intensified military operations, and we can confidently state that the security situation has improved over the past year.

“The stay-at-home order in the South-East has faded, with residents feeling more at ease, similar to the North-East and North-West. The military and other security forces have made significant strides in combating insurgency in Nigeria.

“In the fight against crude oil theft, our pipeline security forces have been relentless in pursuing oil thieves and economic saboteurs, significantly curtailing the activities of vandals, boosting oil production, and reducing theft.”
