From Juliana Taiwo-Obalonye, Abuja

President Bola Tinubu has declared that schools across the country must be safe and secured for learning.

The president made the declaration following the release of the abducted Kuriga school children in Kaduna State.

In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, the president emphasised the importance of collaboration between the federal government and states for expected outcomes, especially on matters of security.

President Tinubu commended the National Security Adviser, the security agencies, and the Kaduna State government for the dispatch and diligence with which they handled the situation, noting that incipient urgency, meticulous attention, and tireless dedication are critical to optimal outcomes in cases of mass abductions.

He also welcomed the release of pupils of a Tsangaya school in Sokoto State, commending all the parties to the feat for their valiant efforts.

The president assured Nigerians that his administration is deploying detailed strategies to ensure that schools remain safe sanctuaries of learning, not lairs for wanton abductions.
