Ribadu fumes - ‘We'll jail those creating problems in South-East’ 

By

National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, on Wednesday, warned that those outside the country and creating problems in the South-East will be jailed there.

He also cautioned that people underrate President Bola Tinubu at their own peril.

Ribadu stated this on Wednesday in Abuja at the National Cyber Security Conference 2025, with the theme: "Building a Resilient Digital Future.”

He said those politicians and others were not making a fair assessment of the present administration, as the country was safer and better under the leadership of President Tinubu.

Addressing an audience made up of foreigners and Nigerians, he said: "We have quality leadership today in our country. 

"Mr. President is a digital President and educated. Yes, he is very enlightened. He knows things.

"People under-estimate him at their own peril.

"Things are changing. We are stabilising things. Forget about what some people are saying.

"Nigeria is getting safer and better every single day. Our economy is stabilising. Things are getting better day by day.

"We have changed things. We are in control. We work with big telecom companies closely.

"Nigeria is safe, forget about these people who are talking nonsense.

"Niger Delta is safer than ever before. South East is beginning to be normal. 

“Those who are creating problems there and are outside the country, we are going to jail them there.

"We will not allow the money they are sending to Nigeria."

Ribadu, who took the critics and opposition politicians to the cleaners for non-recognition of the efforts of the present administration, described them as being "desperate, expired, outdated."

According to him, "We are working and getting results. Many people don't recognise these.

"These are desperate, expired people, who believe that it is an entitlement for them to continue to be in the corridors of power.

"They think it is their right to be in power, to be in our spaces. They go to Channels or Arise TV, they are shouting.

"They are out-dated. These are people who looted and plundered this country before, they believe in entitlement, that is for them to continue to do what they like.

"But Nigerians are wiser. They created problems--religious, ethnic, political problems. We are trying to address them, they should give us a chance, please."
