Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi-Ojaja II, has said traditional rulers are well grounded on challenges of insecurity, hence President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should employ their services to tackle it.<\/p>\n

He gave the charge during a courtesy visit by the National Council of Traditional Rulers of Nigeria (NCTRN) to the President at the State House Conference Centre, Abuja.<\/p>\n

Ooni, who is also the co-chair of traditional rulers of Nigeria, said, \u201cThere are areas we would like to work with you, one of which is security. It is time to use us more, we are not saying we are idle…but to make your work easier, use us.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe foundation of this country today are the traditional rulers. We are here to pledge our loyalty and support. We want to work with you to ensure you leave a legacy.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t underestimate what traditional rulers can do\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa\u2019ad Abubakar III, said the visit is a normal tradition by the monarchs whenever there\u2019s a change in leadership of the country.<\/p>\n

He said the monarchs are people of different professions, from the military to judiciary and businessmen, who have what it takes to contribute to the betterment of the society, saying, \u201cwhenever you reach out to us, we will be here.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Sultan, who said the monarchs do not envy President Tinubu at this time with the numerous challenges facing the country, however, expressed confidence that with the combination of himself and Vice President Kashim Shettima, they will deliver.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cWe thank God for the smooth way the elections took place. Many negative people thought this country would collapse, but we are still here.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are here for you, for our people and our country. If you don\u2019t reach out to us, we will reach out to you.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish you the most successful tenure in good health.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also in attendance is Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume.<\/p>\n

Traditional rulers drawn from the country\u2019s six geo-political zones attended the event.<\/p>\n
