Abdullahi made this disclosure on Sunday during the Phase 3 presentation of the Public Enlightenment Movement Project, where a video documentary showcasing the administration’s initiatives was screened to the public.

He explained that the forest guards are intended to complement existing security agencies by enhancing surveillance and ensuring faster responses to security threats, particularly in forested regions. “Forests have often served as hideouts for bandits. With the deployment of forest guards, these areas are now being protected, leaving criminals with fewer safe havens,” Abdullahi said.

Abdullahi also highlighted other projects endorsed by President Tinubu, including the upgrade of the Federal Medical Centre in Kumo, Gombe State, aimed at improving healthcare access for residents in the North-East.

He further drew attention to multiple federal road projects across the North, including the Bauchi–Gombe road, the Nasarawa–Abuja route, the Gashua–Potiskum road, and the Gembu corridor linking Nigeria to Cameroon. According to Abdullahi, these roads are expected to facilitate movement, boost trade, and reconnect communities affected by insecurity.

On water supply, he mentioned the Dutse water project in Jigawa State as part of Phase 3 initiatives focused on enhancing access to clean water and alleviating daily hardships for residents.

Abdullahi encouraged Northern Nigerians to acknowledge the ongoing projects while continuing to advocate for further development. “We should appreciate the efforts being made, but that does not mean we should stop asking for more development,” he said. He added that unity, responsible engagement, and public support remain crucial for sustaining stability and growth across the region.

Key highlights from his address include:

  • Collective Responsibility: Akpabio stressed that military hardware alone cannot end criminality, urging citizens to partner with security agencies by providing timely and credible intelligence.

  • Economic and Banking Resilience: He declared that Nigeria’s banking sector has shifted from survival to absolute dominance, becoming one of the safest and most technologically advanced in Africa.

  • Reforms Yielding Results: He credited ongoing bank recapitalisation and financial reforms for ending the era where banks could suddenly collapse and cause depositors to lose their savings.

Ultimately, the Senate President maintained that a combination of proactive security operations, economic reforms, and civic cooperation will drive Nigeria’s path toward lasting recovery and national development.
