The National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, says Nigeria has begun to receive international support in its fight against insurgents and terrorists waging war against the country.
Ribadu made this known when he led a Federal Government delegation to pay a sympathy visit on the Catholic Bishop of Kontagora Diocese, Bulus Yohanna, and parents of the abducted students of St Mary’s Catholic Nursery Primary/Secondary School in Agwara Local Government Area of Niger State.
The NSA, who said Nigeria would overcome the insurgents, named some of the countries lending support to Nigeria to include the United States of America, France and Britain.
“Many good people from all over the world are coming to support us, including the United States of America. We appreciate everyone, especially European countries like France, the United Kingdom and a couple of others.
“The whole world is coming together to stop and defeat this evil which has been going on in Nigeria for two decades,” he stated.
According to him, President Bola Tinubu was distressed and disturbed by the kidnap of the children and some of their teachers resulting in his stopping some of his official engagements to attend to the problem.
“Mr. President said I should thank you, Bishop Yohanna for your understanding and patience and for giving us the right information and by standing by for us. We are one.
“You will see our reactions and responses now. One thing I know is that evil people will always be around but this thing they have done is what will change Nigeria for good.
“Enough is enough. We will not relent in our efforts, we are all under attack, let us not allow bad people to divide us, let us not allow evil to get into us,” he counseled.
