Tinubu made the statement during a public address in Lagos, where he emphasized the government’s commitment to addressing the root causes of unrest in the region.
The president highlighted that security forces are actively working to restore order and that federal agencies are coordinating with state governments to ensure peace. Tinubu also reiterated his administration’s focus on economic recovery and infrastructure development, which he claims will further stabilize the nation.
This comes after weeks of protests and clashes in Cross River State, fueled by disputes over resource allocation and local governance. Tinubu’s intervention follows a series of high-level meetings with state officials and security chiefs. While no fatalities have been reported in the latest developments, local leaders have called for continued dialogue to prevent further escalation.
