Matawalle Assures Zamfara on Security, Backs Tinubu's Agenda

On a recent weekend in Kaduna, Dr. Bello Mohammed Matawalle, the Minister of State for Defence, convened an interactive meeting with former members of the Zamfara State House of Assembly, ex-commissioners, Special Advisers, and other political associates. He reassured residents of Zamfara State and surrounding areas affected by banditry that the federal government remains dedicated to restoring peace and security.

Matawalle stated that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu views insecurity as a national emergency, highlighting the administration's commitment to prioritizing national security. He noted the president's active engagement in security matters, both domestically and internationally, to enhance the capabilities of security agencies.

Matawalle called on attendees to rally grassroots support for the 'Tinubu Again Movement' in preparation for the 2027 general elections, asserting that Tinubu would not neglect issues of insecurity, economic development, and national unity. Leaders at the meeting praised Matawalle for maintaining a strong political structure in Zamfara since his tenure as governor ended in 2023.
