Pix: President Bola Ahmed Tinubu<\/p>\n\n\n\n
People\u2019s Security Monitor (PSM) strongly supports President Bola Ahmed Tinubu\u2019s decision to collaborate with the United States in confronting terrorism and related security threats in Nigeria. This position is anchored on a fundamental principle: the survival, stability, and corporate existence of the Nigerian state must always take precedence over all other considerations.
Terrorism remains one of the most serious threats facing Nigeria today. Insurgency, banditry, and transnational criminal networks continue to undermine national security, economic development, and social cohesion. These threats have grown in scale and sophistication, exceeding the capacity of purely local responses and demanding intelligence-driven, technology-enabled, and globally coordinated solutions.
In this context, cooperation between Nigeria and the United States is not a sign of weakness, but a demonstration of strategic foresight. Modern security challenges are global, and no responsible government confronts them in isolation. Intelligence sharing, advanced surveillance, capacity building, and operational support are critical tools for dismantling terror networks and restoring lasting peace.
It must be clearly emphasized that a structured bilateral security partnership does not compromise Nigeria\u2019s sovereignty. Rather, it strengthens sovereignty by enhancing the state\u2019s capacity to secure its territory, protect its citizens, and defend national institutions against violent non-state actors.
Regrettably, some unpatriotic political actors have chosen to undermine national security efforts by allegedly working in concert with agents of insecurity. Their objective is not public safety, but the deliberate sustenance of chaos, so that insecurity can be exploited as a pathway to political power.
These actors treat instability as political capital and human suffering as a strategy. Through sabotage and misinformation, they seek to portray Nigeria as ungovernable, believing that prolonged crisis will advance their personal ambitions.
People\u2019s Security Monitor unequivocally rejects this dangerous mindset. No political ambition is worth the blood of innocent Nigerians. National security must never be sacrificed on the altar of desperation, propaganda, or elite power struggles.
While political disagreements are natural in a democracy, they must never translate into actions that endanger national survival. The fight against terrorism must rise above partisan interests and opportunistic opposition.
Equally troubling are attempts to ethnicize or regionalize Nigeria\u2019s security challenges. Terrorism does not discriminate by ethnicity, religion, or region. Nigerians from all backgrounds are victims, and the response must be united, inclusive, and firmly national in outlook.
As Nigeria looks ahead to future general elections, peace and security remain the foundation of credible democratic processes. Elections cannot thrive in an atmosphere of fear, displacement, and violence. Securing the nation today is an investment in democratic stability tomorrow.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu bears the constitutional responsibility to protect lives and safeguard Nigeria\u2019s corporate existence. This responsibility transcends political cycles, sectional interests, and individual ambitions.
Nigeria is greater than any individual. Our freedoms, aspirations, and opportunities exist because the nation exists. The unfulfilled ambitions of a few must never be allowed to endanger the collective future of over 200 million Nigerians.
People\u2019s Security Monitor therefore reaffirms its full support for President Tinubu\u2019s strategic partnership with the United States to flush out terrorists from Nigeria. National security is a sacred responsibility, and any alliance that strengthens Nigeria\u2019s capacity to protect its people is not only justified, but necessary.
