President Bola Tinubu has delivered a stern warning to terrorists, bandits, and kidnappers, demanding their immediate surrender or face the full force of the Nigerian State.

Speaking during his June 12 Democracy Day address, which marked 27 years of uninterrupted civilian rule, Tinubu framed the ultimatum as part of a broader defense of Nigeria’s democracy and national security.

He emphasized that the government will not tolerate threats to peace and stability, declaring that those who continue to terrorize citizens will be met with decisive military and security action.

Analysts note that the ultimatum reflects Tinubu’s attempt to balance democratic celebration with the urgent need to address insecurity, which remains one of Nigeria’s most pressing challenges.
