The Presidency has maintained that Nigeria is not under siege despite ongoing security challenges in parts of the country.
Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, stated this while fielding questions on Arise Television’s Prime Time programme on Tuesday.
Onanuga argued that reports of insecurity often create the impression that the entire country is unsafe, stressing that incidents of violence and criminality are limited to specific locations.
According to him, many Nigerians continue to travel across the country without encountering security threats.
He cited personal experiences of travelling by road within the country and also referenced accounts from other Nigerians who regularly undertake long-distance journeys.
The presidential aide specifically mentioned the Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Education Loan Fund, NELFUND, who, according to him, recently informed him that he travelled by road from Abuja to Kebbi State.
