Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, on Monday, said the Muhammadu Buhari administration is not overwhelmed by the security challenges in the country.<\/p>\n

Recall that former President, Olusegun Obasanjo had on Sunday said the government of President Muhammadu Buhari is overwhelmed by insecurity.<\/p>\n

Obasanjo while reacting to the recent Kaduna train attack said Nigerians travelling are no longer safe on the road, in the train and at the airport<\/p>\n

He called for concerted efforts to stem the tide of insecurity in Nigeria, regretting that the Buhari administration had been overwhelmed by the situation.<\/p>\n

Reacting, Mohammed on a TVC programme, condoled with the families of the victims, citing the various Federal Government\u2019s efforts in tackling the security challenges in the country.<\/p>\n

He said the government is fast-tracking the installation of some security gadgets on railway tracks to ensure adequate surveillance.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Federal Government is working toward ensuring that such incident does not reoccur.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the things that the government wants to do is to fast-track the installation of a surveillance and monitoring system, not just on the Abuja-Kaduna rail track.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut also on the Lagos-Ibadan and Warri-Itakpe rail tracks to ensure that at any given time we will be able to monitor from the control room,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

Mohammed claimed that in spite of the security challenges, the military and other security personnel were doing their best and have recorded successes in their fight against terrorism.<\/p>\n

\u201c We must give kudos to our military; you know that we are not fighting a conventional war but terrorism, hence the need for everyone to support the security agencies so as to win over the menace.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Federal Government has also given the military the enabling environment to continue in the fight against terrorism and banditry,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

The minister also assured Nigerians of the Federal Government\u2019s commitment to ensure that every state is secured.<\/p>\n
