President Bola Tinubu has condemned the rate of kidnapping in the country and this is what he has to say.

“We must treat kidnappers as terrorists. They are cowardly.”

“They have been degraded. They look for soft targets. They go to schools and kidnap children and cause disaffection.”

“We must treat them equally as terrorists in order to get rid of them, and I promise you we will get rid of them.”

Tinubu made the declaration on Tuesday, March 26th, 2024 at a Ramadan dinner with members of the federal judiciary led by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Olukayode Ariwoola.
