At the 2025 National Cybersecurity Conference in Abuja, Nigeria’s National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, delivered a powerful message that captured the essence of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s leadership in today’s rapidly evolving digital and security landscape.
According to Ribadu, Nigeria is experiencing a quiet but steady transformation under President Tinubu’s reform-driven administration, a shift that is bringing stability, security, and renewed investor confidence.
He said, “Things are changing. We are stabilising the country. Forget what some people are saying. Nigeria is safer and better every single day.
“Niger Delta is safer than ever before. The South-East is returning to normalcy. Those fueling unrest from abroad will be tracked and prosecuted. We will not allow external forces to destabilize our progress.
“We have quality leadership today in our country. Mr. President is a digital President. He is educated and deeply informed. People who underestimate him are doing so at their own peril.
These are people who looted and plundered this country. Now they are shouting on television. They are outdated. Nigeria has moved on and Nigerians are wiser.
We are working with major telecom operators. Our cybersecurity strategy is strong. Nigeria is safe and open for business. Investors should know that Nigeria is the future of Africa.”
