Adebayo Promises To End Terrorism, Banditry Within Six Months If Elected

The presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Adewole Adebayo, has vowed to rid Nigeria of banditry within six months and eliminate terrorism by Christmas 2027 if elected president.

Adebayo made the pledge on Monday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, where he discussed the country’s security challenges.

He maintained that Nigeria has the resources and capacity to defeat bandits and terrorists, blaming the persistence of insecurity on a lack of political will among successive leaders and the absence of a practical security strategy.

The SDP candidate argued that a government committed to protecting citizens would not politicise insecurity but take decisive action to safeguard lives and property.

Outlining his proposed approach, Adebayo identified intelligence gathering, effective border control and adequate funding for security agencies as key priorities.

He also promised to ensure that security agencies are held accountable for their performance, stressing that they would be required to deliver tangible results.

Adebayo said Nigerians were tired of repeated assurances and excuses from political leaders, insisting that what citizens wanted was the freedom to go about their daily activities without fear.

According to him, Nigerians should be able to farm, travel and sleep peacefully without worrying about attacks.

“In six months, Nigeria should not be seeing bandits anymore. And by Christmas 2027, terrorists will be past tense in Nigeria,” he said.
