Former Nigerian Head of State General Abdulsalami Abubakar (retd.) calls for national unity to address insecurity across the country. In a statement cited by multiple outlets, Abubakar says every Nigerian has a role in combating terrorism and other criminal activities. He argues that defeating insecurity requires citizens to work together with government institutions and the security agencies at all levels. The statement frames insecurity as an ongoing challenge and emphasizes collective responsibility rather than leaving the effort solely to authorities. Abubakar’s message centers on coordination between the public and state security structures, highlighting the need for cooperation to improve the effectiveness of responses to threats. The reports do not provide new policy details or specific incidents, but they consistently present Abubakar’s view that broader public participation is necessary to tackle terrorism and related crime. The statement is also linked to the occasion of its release, though the outlets provide only limited surrounding context.
