Defence Minister Gen. Christopher Musa says Nigeria’s security and national outlook are improving under President Bola Tinubu’s leadership.
Speaking in Abuja on Friday after commissioning the annex of Haam Legal Consult Services, Musa said Tinubu remains “fully committed to securing the nation and strengthening national development.” He credited the President’s consistent support for boosting the Armed Forces’ capacity to tackle insecurity nationwide.
Musa noted that the military is also working closely with the U.S. and other partner nations to address the country’s security challenges. He assured Nigerians that the Armed Forces are working “tirelessly to ensure the safety and security of all citizens.”
The minister urged citizens to back the military, stressing that security is a collective responsibility. He called on Nigerians to remain vigilant, report suspicious activity, and stop aiding criminal elements.
“If all Nigerians decide today that there will be no more support for criminals, I can assure you that within one month, these security challenges would largely become things of the past,” Musa said.
On leadership, he said Nigeria needs credible, visionary leaders with genuine passion for the country, not criminal-minded individuals. “We all travel outside the country and see how things work; it is all about leadership. Once we have purposeful leadership, things will change. Nigeria is changing,” he said.
Musa also appealed to citizens to join politics and support leaders committed to nation-building, warning against ethnic, religious, and money-driven politics.
Commending the new law firm, he said law, justice, and respect for human rights are vital to nation-building. “Without law and order, humanity cannot thrive, and no nation can command respect if its laws are not obeyed,” he said.
Head of Chambers Barrister Abdulsalam Ibrahim said the firm will provide services in land agreements, legal advisory, election matters, property management, contract reviews, real estate, and CAC registration.
