Olowu of Kuta, Oba Hammeed Adekunle Makama Oyelude, has urged all Nigerians to be patriotic and speak with one voice to protect Nigeria.
Olowu, who spoke at the 35th edition of Kuta Day celebration on Saturday, said it’s imperative now more than ever to speak with one voice and unite to protect Nigeria and defeat the terrorists once and for all.
According to Olowu, “Irrespective of political leaning and affiliation, this is the time to show our patriotic zeal. We must all bear in mind that we must have the country first before thinking of any ambition,” he added.

He noted that though President Bola Tinubu has improved the welfare of the military since the assumption of office on May 29, 2023, he urged him to do more to motivate the officers.
He commended the new Service Chiefs for swinging into action immediately after the Senate screening and receiving and handing over notes from their predecessors, but urged them to expedite action now that the whole world is focused on Nigeria to neutralise the terrorist groups as soon as possible.
“Your appointment is coming at the defining moment in our chequered history. I urge the Service Chiefs to be conscious of the fact that all resources, both human capital and equipment, must be put to the best use to end the insurgency,” Olowu said.
Olowu, however, urged President Donald Trump to help Nigeria by sharing actionable intelligence and usable platforms that would end the insurgency as soon as possible.
