Represented by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator George Akume, the President said there can be no meaningful economic growth where citizens fear for their lives or cannot feed their families. He stressed that insecurity disrupts farms, factories and markets. According to the SGF’s media aide, the administration is tackling these challenges with urgent and coordinated actions to restore safety and improve living standards.
